Growing from its humble beginnings as a beloved food truck in 2015 Big Bad Wolf made the leap to a full-fledged bar and grill in 2024 and is becoming a hub for local music in Tucson most nights of the week! Staying true to their roots while embracing their passion for live entertainment, the venue combines their love of good food, craft beers, and live music.
"Our new space allows us to continue what we love, blending big flavors with even bigger fun. From casual lunches to weekend gatherings with friends, we invite you to enjoy the best of both comfort food and local entertainment." - Big Bad Wolf Bar & Grill
We asked Bill (co-owner) how to book a show at Big Bad Wolf and here's what we learned:
What is the best way to get in contact with you about booking?
Facebook messenger is the best way to reach us for booking gigs.
Do you require a link to music the performer/band makes?
I prefer links to videos of other gigs they have had.
Do you require a media package?
No
Should a performer/band reach out to you directly, or do you prefer managers to contact you?
It doesn't matter.
What can performers/bands expect in terms of payment?
It varies based on the band. We're mostly looking for bands with a following. Proven bands normally get a flat dollar amount while others get paid a percentage of sales.
How far out should performers/bands reach out about booking?
About six months
Are performers required to fill the rest of the bill?
No
Are performers directly required to sell tickets ahead of time?
No
Is there anything else folks should know about the process? Anything we missed?
It's not a very formal process. Be persistent.
