There are many benefits to hiring a live band for your Melbourne event, whether it be a wedding, corporate function, or a private party. Not only are they experienced professionals who will ensure your guests have a fantastic time, but there are plenty of other perks, too. From creating the perfect atmosphere, to offering a full variety of songs and performance styles, to acting as ad-hoc hosts throughout your event, live bands offer a variety of benefits that are sure to make any occasion special.

In this article, our team at Blue Avenue Entertainment explore six benefits of booking live musicians and singers for hire for your next Melbourne event.

Create Your Desired Atmosphere

One of the main benefits of musicians for hire is the ability to create the desired atmosphere for your event. Live music from professional Melbourne entertainment companies like Blue Avenue Entertainment has the power to set the mood and create a certain vibe, whether it be a romantic atmosphere for a wedding or a lively and energetic atmosphere for an end-of-year party. With a live band, you have the flexibility to choose the music and style that fits the theme of your event.

Choose from Various Styles

Live bands offer a wide range of music styles to choose from, including pop, rock, jazz, blues, and more. This allows you to tailor the music to your personal preferences and the theme of your event. You can even request specific songs to be played during the event.

At Blue Avenue, each act, from Melbourne acoustic duos to various cover bands, has an extensive repertoire that can be tailored and adapted to suit any occasion. We have performers who like to specialise in various genres and musicians for hire who can build a list of some of your most loved classics and hits.

Act as a Host for the Event

Keeping every aspect of your event on time and running smoothly can be exhausting, especially if you don’t have the natural skills to hold the attention of your guests and support staff. 

In addition to being the perfect party entertainment hire option in Melbourne, a live band can also act as a host for your event, providing entertainment and keeping the guests engaged throughout the night. They can interact with the crowd and get everyone dancing and having a good time. This can be especially helpful for wedding receptions, where the band can help keep the party going and provide a smooth transition between events such as the wedding ceremony, dinner, and dancing.

A Higher Quality of Entertainment

Live music is generally considered a higher quality of entertainment than recorded music. Singers and musicians for hire perform live and in real-time, allowing for a more authentic and dynamic experience. A live band can also add a touch of class and sophistication to your event, making it a more memorable and enjoyable experience for your guests.

An Affordable Entertainment Option

Contrary to popular belief, hiring a live band can be an affordable entertainment option than others available. Many live bands offer packages that include all necessary equipment, such as microphones and sound systems, which can help save on costs. Additionally, live bands can often play a variety of music styles, eliminating the need to hire multiple entertainers.

Adapt to the Mood of the Audience to Keep Your Guests Engaged

A live band can adapt to the audience’s mood and keep your guests engaged throughout the event. They can read the crowd and play music most suitable for the current atmosphere, ensuring that everyone is having a good time. This is something that a recorded, scheduled playlist cannot replicate.

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

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 :)
