How Christopher Sprake Productions supports self-managed artists

Need to run your own show? He's your go-to for equipment hiring.

In our last edition, we spoke about recording and production services, but you also provide equipment hire?

Having worked with independent artists for a long time, I became aware many of them ran their own shows – or wanted to. The equipment hire side of the business grew out of this need to provide simple and appropriate sound packages to solo artists, bands and event organisers.

What events do you cater for and what types of clients have you worked with?

I used to run community music events, small café style shows and small outdoor festivals and events at town hall size venues. That includes singer/songwriters, community choirs, youth band showcase nights and large bands or performance groups needing bigger systems.

What PA and audio hire packages do you offer?

Small systems – one powered speaker with microphone, leads and stands with Bluetooth connection.

Medium systems – two FOH, a foldback and mixing desk.

Large systems – multiple FOH, foldback, a subwoofer and mixing desk with additional individual items, such as microphones/drum microphones, leads, Dis, multicores and stage boxes. Each package can be customised to the needs of the performer.

How is Christopher Sprake Productions different from other PA and audio hire providers?

As a performer, I am aware of the needs of self-managed artists. I work with artists to ensure they have the best set up for their show, making sure they know how the equipment works, so they can get live quality sound results.
