Factors influencing pricing vary and may include date, location, type of event, whether a private party or a public concert, the artist's calendar, whether the artist is on tour or not, how well tickets are selling at the artist's concerts, the current demand for the artist's music, market activity, etc.
As you might expect, the more in-demand the artist is, the more buyers are prepared to pay. Of course, this causes the artist's price to increase as the artist becomes more popular, or decrease when becoming less popular.
Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at anytime.

Let's get this done right! We look forward to working with you! This is the month of November update of this page. Eric Bogacz and Alex Santilli engineered the recording sessions at Spice House and Alex worked with me at the very end of the mixing process to polish the overall sound. Ryan Schwabe mastered the album. It can mean the hour a pool is devoted to lap swimming or it can mean feeling free while swimming; I envision a crisp lake with no one else around.
Either way, I think there is a feeling of energy, meditation and freedom all happening at the same time aided by the repetition of the strokes and the buoyancy of the water. We use repetition and dance rhythms to put bodies into motion and that builds a foundation on which melody and improvisation can make those bodies feel free from time or stress, as if they could float away. Was there a vibe or mood you wanted to establish with this track?
What are some recent inspirations or influences? Can you register any of them on Free Swim? I never want influence to be directly from a single song or artist, I think that can lead to work that is too derivative. Instead, I think of influence as a sum of my entire history of music listening. But, something as simple as the way drums are distorted on a recording or how a synth sound modulates can be a direct influence on how I approach shaping sounds. Luke: Some of the inspirations on Free Swim came from old funk and soul and French disco producers.
How has your sound or approach evolved over the last two decades? Despite the short structures, the songs still sound complete and whole. Each one ends properly and not too suddenly. So says Chico Lindvall, guitarist of Lotus. Good advice for up and coming guitarists who are obsessed with speed playing. I cannot believe this fabulous instrumental album has but one other review.
This is a monster of melodic, grooving fusion instrumentals. What a shame that these Swedish lads never reached a wider audience. Their material is compelling and well played, they sound like an early version of what are today referred to as "jam bands.
The remastered CD versions includes 5 live bonus tracks recorded in along with a band history. As the bio says, if you enjoy energetic dual guitar rocking fusion played with obvious joy, you must hear Lotus. Review by loserboy Prog Reviewer. Copyright Prog Archives, All rights reserved.

After the release of their second album in , the band, alas, split up. Although the tracks on their first album are rather short, each one is chock full of ideas and beautiful catchy melodies based on tight, 70ish-like jazzy grooves, all charmingly and distinctively Swedish.
Their second album, "Vera O'Flera", which features a guest musician on sax, is in the same vein but much more fusion oriented and perhaps a bit less convincing. The CD versions of both albums contain extra tracks: 5 live bonus tracks on the first among them a scorchy minute number and two studio tracks on the second. Studio Album, 3. In they released their eponymous debut album, in followed by this second effort entitled Vera O'Flera, the CD release Duck Your Music label contains two bonustracks.
During my first listening session I was blown away by Lotus their melodic and jazzrock oriented sound and the skills of the musicans of this unknown band: a swinging and powerful rhythm-section, an excellent guitarist an often flowing and fiery style and an outstanding keyboardplayer who reminds me of Jan Hammer and Chick Corea but he's not a copycat. Especially the wonderful soli on the synthesizer and the sparkling work on the piano from jazzy to classical are really stunning, what a talent!
The 11 songs on this CD running time around the 40 minutes sound tasteful and varied, this album should be embraced by the many jazzrock aficionados on this site, a big hand for the unknown Swedish formation Lotus! Thanks to ProgLucky for the artist addition.
