Should You Choose an Acoustic Duo or a Full Band for Your Next Event?

Should You Choose an Acoustic Duo or a Full Band for Your Next Event

If you’re in the midst of planning your next event and you’re torn between an acoustic duo or a full band and you’re really not sure what to choose, we can help you decide! 

Whether you’re hosting a corporate function, a private party or you’re even tossing up the entertainment for your wedding, we know how hard it can be to choose between a full band or an acoustic duo. 

Here are some of the top factors we think you should keep in mind when you’re weighing up your musical options for your next event. 

Acoustic Duos 

Acoustic duos are a popular choice for a number of different functions because they bring a more intimate and laid-back feel to an event. An acoustic duo tends to bring a more warm and inviting atmosphere to your space and they might be the better choice if you’re hosting a smaller gathering or you’ve chosen a venue with less available space. 

There are a number of reasons people may opt for an acoustic duo for their event, with just two musicians they’re able to add a more casual and laid back feel to your get together. Since there are only two musicians, it may also be easier for an acoustic duo to tackle song requests from partygoers. If you’re wanting to have a number of different genres and songs played at your event, an acoustic duo may be able to adapt more seamlessly to requests for different songs or genres. 

Full Bands

Hiring a full band for your event really takes it to the next level! If you’re really looking to impress your guests, a full band might be the way to go. A full band is the perfect way to create a more lively, energetic atmosphere at your event. With multiple musicians, a full band really does provide an engaging performance that is guaranteed to get your guests dancing. 

One of the main advantages to hiring a full band for your event as opposed to just an acoustic duo is their ability to completely fill larger venues with sound. If you’re hosting a more large-scale event or if you’re hosting something outdoors, a full band might be able to provide the best sound. 

A full band is a great option if you’re hosting an event with a large number of people or if you’re looking to really impress your guests! You will have to ensure you have the space for a full band to set up so ensure that you check out your venue prior to booking your band so you know they have ample space to perform.

We used this service for our wedding and hired masterblasters and Jace. They were absolutely fantastic on the day, surpassing our expectations and delivering a brilliant performance throughout the entire day. They along with Anthony were a calm and helpful presence from the get go. Would highly recommend for a wedding day

Watched Downtime performed at a Christmas party I was at, hands down the best Jazz band i've heard in Melbourne. Will use them for my next event :)

Soul City were the entertainment at our work event and they were incredible! The dancefloor was full and the selection of songs were a hit with everyone. We will definitely book them again next year!

Working with Anthony was an absolute breeze. We were privileged enough to have House of Soul play for our wedding and they were beyond fantastic. Ricky, Carla and the band had everyone dancing, engaged and in awe of their talent. Not only are they talented but they are beautiful people. From the moment we got in contact with Anthony we knew we had made a great decision. He had everything under control and was liaising with the venue to ensure a perfect night. We couldn’t recommend enough. We are thinking of the next event we can quickly organise just to do it all again!

My partner and I booked Downtime band for our wedding through Blue Avenue Entertainment in March this year and were absolutely thrilled with them. Anthony (the manager) was very accommodating, friendly and professional, and a very efficient communicator which made the booking process very stress-free which we were so grateful for during our wedding planning! The band were absolutely incredible - really gifted at what they do and they really understood the vibe we were going for - the set list they put together was perfect. So many of our guests gave us feedback on how fantastic the band was, and everyone was up and dancing which really made our night. I’m so glad we decided to book with them and highly recommend them!

We booked a band via Blue Avenue Entertainment for our wedding. I am so glad that we did! Anthony (the manager) was great. He was very organised and easy to communicate with. When the band we had booked cancelled 8 weeks out from the wedding, Anthony very swiftly found a replacement band that were even better than the original! I really recommend booking via Blue Avenue Entertainment. Thanks Anthony!

OMG what a treat it was to have Downtime at a recent wedding I was photographing! Their music was the perfect addition to the reception :) The band members are incredibly talented! They were a hit with the guests and I loved capturing the joy and energy they were giving off. They were also super friendly and easy to work with, making my job as a photographer a breeze! I highly recommend these guys for any events :)
