Accepted Answer

Yes. Grant Reddoch is a Catholic liturgical musician based in Lake Charles, Louisiana, available for high school, college, and parish retreats throughout Louisiana and nearby states. He provides all-inclusive retreat musician packages — voice, guitar, piano capability, and basic sound for chapel settings — requiring no additional sound coordination for most retreat venues.

Question 2

How much does a Catholic retreat musician cost?

Accepted Answer

Retreat packages are $450 for a one-day retreat, $700 for a two-day/one-night retreat, and $900 for a three-day/two-night retreat. These all-inclusive rates cover music leadership for all sessions: Mass, Eucharistic adoration, praise and worship, and prayer times. Gas reimbursement is required for venues more than one hour from Lake Charles, and meals and lodging are provided by the host for overnight engagements.

Question 3

Do you provide music for Eucharistic adoration and holy hours?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Grant provides contemplative music for Eucharistic adoration, holy hours, and Benediction for parishes, youth groups, and campus ministries. He builds a musical arc designed to support sustained prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. Adoration music is available as a standalone booking ($200) or as part of a broader retreat engagement.

Question 4

Is Grant Reddoch Safe Environment certified?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Grant holds current Safe Environment certification through the Diocese of Lake Charles. Background checks and equivalent training for other dioceses are available upon request, making him fully compliant for ministry work with youth and young adults.

Question 5

How far will you travel for a retreat, Mass, or adoration?

Accepted Answer

Grant regularly serves within approximately four hours of Lake Charles, Louisiana — covering most of Louisiana, East Texas (including Beaumont and Orange), and Southern Mississippi (including Biloxi and Gulfport). For engagements beyond that range, he is available when travel is fully covered by the host, including air travel.

Question 6

What instruments and equipment do you bring?

Accepted Answer

Grant travels with guitar, a DI box for guitar, microphone, cables, a small audio mixer, personal monitor, and music and instrument stands. He does not bring a PA system or keyboard. Venues needing piano must have one available; amplified keyboard requires a PA system provided by the venue.

Question 7

Can you provide music for a Catholic high school retreat?

Accepted Answer

Yes. High school retreats are a primary service area. Grant is experienced working with youth ministry programs, Newman Centers, and diocesan retreat centers across Southwest Louisiana. He is Safe Environment certified and background-checked, and is comfortable with youth-oriented praise and worship as well as more contemplative Eucharistic and adoration settings.

Question 8

Do you sing cantor for Sunday Mass or special liturgies?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Grant is available as solo cantor (voice only, $125) or cantor and instrumentalist — voice plus guitar or piano ($200) — for Sunday Mass, feast days, holy days of obligation, and special liturgies. He is familiar with the full range of liturgical repertoire from traditional hymnody and Gregorian chant to contemporary Catholic music, and has served the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Lake Charles for nearly a decade.

Question 9

Do you sing Gregorian chant?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Gregorian chant is part of Grant's core formation as a liturgical musician. He sang in the schola supporting liturgies at the Vigil Project Musicians Summit in Italy, has sung chanted Liturgy of the Hours in parish and retreat settings, and is comfortable leading chant in both contemporary and more traditional liturgical contexts.

Question 11

Are you available for traditional or solemn Latin Mass settings?

Possibly. Grant's formation in Gregorian chant, chanted Liturgy of the Hours, and sacred polyphony gives him a foundation for more traditional liturgical contexts.
