As you plan your event, you've probably wondered what to do about music. Should you hire a live band? Would a D. J. Be a better choice? Or will you hook up your iPod to a sound system and playback your own custom party playlist? Whether you are planning a wedding, a Bar or Bat Mitzvah, a corporate event, a reunion, or some other event, your choice of music will set the tone. Choosing a band for your event can spell the difference between a good party and an amazing party.
In contrast to a D. J. Or iPod playlist, a live band can read the audience, sensing their reactions to the music, and making changes to their style and music selection on the fly, keeping the audience happy, engaged, and tapping their toes or on their feet. The audience reacts to the performers in a live band in a way they cannot with a D. J. Playing back prerecorded music; whether to the emotion in a singer's voice, to the groove of the bas and drums of a hot rhythm section, or the riffing of the guitar player, the live energy of a band cannot be equaled.
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.
While an iPod might be considered an ideal solution for party music, given both the infinite variety of and absolute control over music it provides, there are some strong arguments against this idea. For one thing, the volume varies a lot between songs on an iPod. For another, should you wish to change the order of playback, or accommodate requests, someone will need to handle this task. Without someone knowledgeable dedicated to this task for the duration of the party, it is doubtful this will go smoothly.
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.
Remember to collaborate with the band on working out the playlist for you party well before the event. Hiring a live band will help make your event a memorable occasion!
