You've got the venue reserved, the caterers selected, the menu picked. But wait a moment - what about the music? You could hire a D. J., or plug in your iPod to a sound system. But have you considered a live band? The music that you select will create the ambiance of your party. No matter what your party is in celebration of - a wedding, a reunion, a Bar or Bat Mitzvah, or a corporate affair - a live band will make your even memorable and special for all.
One advantage of a live band is the band's ability to interact with the audience. A good event band can gauge the mood of the audience, making adjustments in their presentation and repertoire to keep those in attendance smiling and dancing to songs they are familiar with. The energy of a live band simply cannot be equaled by a D. J., who can only play the songs exactly as they were recorded, and no changes in presentation are possible.
It is often argued that a D. J. Has many thousands of songs to choose from, while a band cannot possibly know that many songs, but this statement ignores the fact that at a 4 hour event, roughly 60 or 70 songs will be played, and nearly any band knows more songs than this. Additionally, bands often specialize in certain types of parties, and are well versed in appropriate songs.
Using an iPod to play music at a party faces the same downsides as music played back by a D. J. Additionally, leaving an iPod to playback music unattended can be problematic, due to problem of volume fluctuation, or wanting to change the order of songs or take requests. There may be no one available to handle managing the iPod, since organizers and participants at the event will have other tasks to perform, while guests are there to enjoy the festivities, not manage the music.
A live band makes any event feel like a special occasion. An experienced bandleader will often double as the evening's emcee, and while the band takes a break, they will allow their sound system to be used for toasts, speeches, and announcements. Having a live band at your event will make it both memorable and unique.
When selecting a band to play at your party, the best way to audition them is to hear them play live. Fortunately, many bands will have performances scheduled, whether they are in clubs, parks, or other events, giving you the opportunity to see for yourself what they are like in a live setting.
It is a better idea to ask for live recordings, since given modern studio technology, studio recordings by the same band may differ considerably from their live sound.
Don't forget to work out your playlist with the band well in advance of the actual date. Remember, musicians love to play live, and most of them are doing it for more than just money. Hiring a live band will help make your special event unforgettable!
