Bands come in many sizes, from an acoustic duo to a large band with horns. For a corporate event in Vancouver, the right size depends on what the music is for, the room and the guest count. Send us your date, venue and guest count, and you can compare options with prices for bands who are available that day.<\/p>\n
Tell each band what you’d like the music to do: play in the background while people talk, give a short feature people stop to watch, or get people dancing. For background or a short feature, ask about a smaller group. For dancing, ask about a full band with drums and sound.<\/p>\n
Tell each band the size of the room and how many guests you expect. Ask which lineup they’d suggest, and how much floor space it needs.<\/p>\n
A duo or trio, such as a singer with a guitarist or a jazz trio, needs less space and less power. Ask whether they bring their own sound, and how they keep the volume right for a room where people are talking.<\/p>\n
A four-piece or larger band needs a stage area, more power and more time to set up and sound check. Ask what they need from the venue, and check with the venue when they can load in.<\/p>\n
Some bands offer more than one lineup. Ask whether a smaller version of the band can play while guests arrive and eat, and the full band later.<\/p>\n
The price depends on how many hours they play, whether it’s a Saturday or in the holiday season, a bigger band, sound and lighting if the venue has none, and travel outside Metro Vancouver.<\/p>\n
