Let’s start by discussing a few tips about how to hire a corporate band.
A few tips to hire a corporate band are as follows:
The right music
When you are organizing an event you have to keep various music tastes in mind. There are so many genres of music like country, pop, jazz, rock, indie and more. With so many of them to choose from, how do you know which one to go for? It is very simple actually. You have to decide the music keeping the nature of the event in mind. Unobtrusive and stylish music works best in the case of corporate events. You also have to keep the crowd count in mind. If it’s going to be a small crowd, you may choose to go with a small band. If it’s going to be a big event, then you have to consider something bigger.
You also have to think about the role of music in the event. Is it going to be the focus or just a part of it? Or are you looking to add just subtle background music to an event? You have to sit down and think of these things. Visualize how the music is going to fit into your event. If you have chosen a theme then you have to look for music that goes with the same. A musical theme is a great way to pull off an event.
There will be many guests at your event and their ages will vary as well. You should concentrate on that to choose the right music for them. You should choose music that will appeal to most of your guests. Most audiences will appreciate an elegant band with one vocalist. You have to consider the young members of your audience as well and cater to their tastes.
The venue
The choice of venue plays a major role in the choice of a band. So, before booking any, you have to check with the venue whether they have any limitations regarding live music. The venue may also be able to give you recommendations to help you with your search for a band. You have to check whether your venue has restrictions regarding amplification. This is because some venues use noise limiters for bands. Most bands are fine with it but they would want to know of it in advance.
Some venues may not allow bands ats certain places. This is especially applicable if you are trying to arrange an event at a historical building. This doesn’t mean that you cannot hire a band but it will limit your choices. You also need to consider the size of the band the venue will accept as some of them put a limit on that. In some cases, it might be as few as 2 musicians only. If the band you like is bigger than that, then you have to ask them to reduce members, especially for the venue.
The goal
Is your event meant for just having fun or are you looking forward to people building connections? Or, is it a celebration of something? If it’s meant for people connecting with each other, then background music is the best choice. If it’s the first one, then you need to choose a fun and energetic band that will match the energy of the crowd. You can also go for pure instrumental bands as that will allow your guests to mingle with each other. But if you are looking for a band that is meant to work up the crowd, you have to go for a high-energy one.
