   About Fat Rat Productions

Hello and welcome to the home of FAT RAT PRODUCTIONS. We are a small town SOUND REINFORCEMENT team of sound engineers with big ideas and a big proven track record.

The ethos of Fat Rat Productions is to give performers every opportunity to show-off their talents; whether they are young or newly established performers or seasoned professionals with a lifetime of musical experience. After all, as both musicians and sound engineers ourselves, we try our hardest to help our fellow performers show the best of themselves.

Fat Rat Productions wants each and every musician to be at ease at the gigs we work, so that the audience gets high quality entertainment - after all, every performer loves an appreciative audience - and the audience appreciates quality sound and well-organised stage management. Call it a "mutual thing" if you like, but it's the wish of the Fat Rat team that everyone should go home satisfied after the gig or concert has ended.

Fat Rat Productions has a great track record of providing sound reinforcement and stage management for musicians and performers. We organised and ran the Wyche Music Sessions on a weekly basis from June 2007 to February 2008. We also ran a similar venture at The Cavalry Arms for 18 weeks prior to the venue closing in late January 2008. We then ran weekly music sessions at The Mount Pleasant Hotel in Malvern until the end of 2008.

Since the start of 2009, Fat Rat Productions has moved away for organising gigs and has begun supporting promoters and bands at gigs, at private events and charity gigs and concerts around the Midlands.

Fat Rat Productions is proud to help musicians and promoters to run gigs by adopting the successful formula that made the sessions that we once ran ourselves so popular and well liked by performers of all musical styles and abilities.

Fat Rat Productions supported Matt Woosey & The Strange Rain with PA equipment for their campaign to complete 100 gigs in 100 days across the UK.

Fat Rat Productions supported the 2009 Upton-upon-Severn Blues Festival at The Boathouse - the most popular indoor stage of the festival with with PA equipment and Sound re-enforcement and stage management skills.

Fat Rat Productions works with Not Just Sauce providing the PA equipment and sound and stage management at the popular Acoustic Lunches at The Old Rectifying House in Worcester.

Fat Rat Productions continues to serve The Worcester Music Festival with four stages in 2009 as well as supporting local bands and performers with PA specialization and advice.

A list of performers, events and photo's and reviews of past Fat Rat Productions are posted on this site. Please dig around and discover which band/performer Fat Rat Productions are working with or which venue or promoter we are providing our sound reinforcement and production specialisation!

With luck we'll see you at one of our gigs that values good LIVE music!

Keep the faith,

Fat Rat Productions

Hey guys, it was a strange night. We started playing to practically no-one, but by the time we closed the set, the place was filling up! If we'd started at 10 o'clock, it probably would've been a more interesting evening. :) Sorry to hear about your departure from the local biz, good luck for the future from all the guys in the band.
