Mary Frances Booking Agency Profile
With her amazing first solo album First Light, genre-defying fiddling (and piano) star Mary Frances Leahy is expanding her career after more than 600 gigs with her parents and renowned fiddlers Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy. Co-produced by Cuban guitarist Elmer Ferrer and Mary Frances, the inventive, varied nine-track collection of original songs is a remarkable fusion of jazz, Latin, and Celtic influences.
Mary Frances is no stranger to the stage, having been influenced by her parents, Ferrer, the late jazz pianist Bill Evans, Latin pop sensation Marc Anthony, Western swing musicians like Mark O'Connor and Mark Sullivan, and Celtic fiddle stalwarts like Buddy MacMaster, Mac Morin, and Howie MacDonald. Leahy supported First Light in 2024 by playing at the first Nova Scotia Stampede, Milwaukee's Irish Fest, Prince Edward Island's Mutual Festival of Small Halls, Australia's Woodford Folk Festival, and Cape Breton's Broad Cove Scottish Concert and Celtic Colours. Additionally, she has performed with a wide range of talented artists in the past, such as Spanish gaita (bagpipes) master Carlos Nunez, British musician Tim Edey, Bela Fleck, Yo-Yo Ma, and Jerry Douglas..

The final Mary Frances booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Mary Frances charge for an event. An example fee to book Mary Frances is in the starting range of $15,000-$24,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.

We cannot give out direct contact information of the Mary Frances agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time.

By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Mary Frances, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price.
