I had the awesome opportunity to work with Nancy regarding an upcoming booking for my group, BoFiya in South Texas. Nancy was attentive, easy to communicate with, extremely efficient and just a warm person to work with. I felt she had our best interest at heart, and her knowledge in the booking management industry is second to none. I look forward to working with TSE, especially Nancy again real soon.

Erin and the team from TSE was so great to work with. Simple and easy set-up, great talent, and took our event to new numbers. Definitely looking forward to working with them again next year! Keep up the great work!

Glenda and the staff at TSE could not have been better to work with from start to finish of our event. We surely will use them again.

We had a private event with the Oakridge Boys and Gary Allan that was one for the record books! The music was phenomenal! Stage setup and sound crew were all great. TSE and the production staff were amazing! Thank you Erin and Dewey for everything you both made the process so easy! Can’t wait to work with y’all again!

TSE Entertainment has been an absolute pleasure to work with. Jace Miller and Erin Cameron are both fantastic agents. They are very responsive and know how to execute bookings from beginning to day of show. I look forward to continuing our work together.
