I had the pleasure of working closely with Rollin at Graceland, where he was a senior consultant for live events and concerts. Rollin is the consummate professional - talented producer, skilled marketer, exceptional talent manager, and outstanding partner for planning, leading, and executing events.
I look forward to working with him again soon. Music is so important to us, and I had specific and somewhat unusual requests for my wedding ceremony and reception. Rollin helped me every step of the way, finding artists who handled my requests with grace and energy. It's been five years, but people still tell me how incredible the music was!

With over two decades in the entertainment business, I've developed a wide network of trusted, talented pros who can make any event shine. I'll help you avoid common mistakes, and I can save you money and relieve a lot of stress. My fees aren't hidden. In general, you pay the entertainers, so you know what they're earning, and you pay me, so I can buy groceries for two teenage boys.
Wielding his unique "chikan-tars, " Super Chikan has taken his real-deal Delta blues around the world. The country's most authentic Hawaiian and Polynesian dance revue is from east Tennessee (really - East Tennessee!) Bring the authentic sounds of the Big Easy to your next event with the renowned New Orleans Jazz Ramblers!
With over 20 years experience in entertainment in Memphis and the region, I have assisted hundreds of clients with their needs. Need a band for a corporate event? Wondering if your business should utilize live music or a DJ? Maybe you've got an idea for a festival but don't know where to start for staging, tech crew, and entertainers.
I will handle every aspect of the entertainment booking process, from initial inquiries, to negotiations, to contracting, to payment. In most cases, you'll pay a 50% deposit to secure the booking, then you'll pay the balance to the artist at the event. For years, the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival wanted to book Ruby Wilson, known worldwide as "The Queen of Beale Street."
You have an event scheduled. You've got a venue, perhaps you have entertainment booked, maybe you've got sound, lights, and staging on hand. I've helped produce some of the region's biggest events, from the grand opening of FedExForum to a Grammy-winner's first concert at Graceland. I've also produced large weddings with multiple stages, corporate events big and small, and even a funeral procession down Beale Street.

Riggs Entertainment, and Rollin specifically, has helped my band perform at multiple larger street festivals and events that we wouldn't have been able to book otherwise. Most importantly, he is true to his word, always comes through, and is flexible when you need him to be. Things that are often taken for granted or non-existent in the music/entertainment industry. I highly recommend his services.
