Standards
The commitments that define how The Backline Company approaches every production.
Every artist deserves to perform with complete confidence, knowing that the equipment supporting them will do exactly what it's supposed to do. The purpose of The Backline Company Performance Support Standard™ is to ensure our responsibility continues throughout the performance - not just until the equipment is set up.
TBC-STD-006Rehearsal Standard™Every rehearsal should be spent refining the performance - not resolving preventable production issues. The purpose of The Backline Company Rehearsal Standard™ is to ensure artists, musicians and technical teams can use rehearsal time exactly as intended: to prepare for the performance.
TBC-STD-009Equipment Readiness Standard™Professional equipment isn't considered ready because it's available. It's ready because every aspect of its preparation has been completed before it reaches an artist. The purpose of The Backline Company Equipment Readiness Standard™ is to ensure every piece of backline we deliver inspires confidence from the first rehearsal to the final performance.
