Ben Kulp innocenti quartet, ripped me off for overtime on a job Chicago, Illinois
I am a working musician. I was contacted by Ben Kulp as a music agent to provide music for a grand opening of a senior facility. Mr. Kulp books musical acts as well as his own string ensemble under the name innocenti quartet and innocenti strings. The owner of the senior facility asked me to start earlier than the contract called for and to play later than the contract called for and assured me of reimbursement. Mr. Kulp refuses to acknowledge my claim for overtime and has not responded to several emails. I have used booking agents for events for forty years. This is the first time I have ever been ripped off. That is saying a lot as the integrity of music agents in general is probably lower than used car salesmen.

I posted this report on Ben Kulp and was hasty and incorrect in my assumptions about him. I asked ripoff report to remove the complaint and they refused. They leave all reports up, regardless of the validity of them. This website and it's operators are themselves ripoff artists. Please ignore my post about Ben Kulp and take anything you read on this website with a huge grain of salt.

I filed this report against the booking agent Ben Kulp. He reimbursed me for the overtime that I was not paid and provided me with additional work. It was an error due to miscommunication that both parties, myself included were responsible for.
The agent, Mr. Kulp, and his musical organization Innocenti Strings are honest and honorable, not to mention highly talented. They provide musical ensembles from solo artists to small orchestras. They specialize in classical music with highly trained performers familiar with the classical repertoire as well as elegant popular musical arrangements.
