Selecting and hiring a Band

Auditioning bands with a video or audio tape may seem like the best way to make the right choice, but professional event planners know that careful mixing, editing and studio enhancement can make a bad band seem good.   The tape tells you very little about the entertainment's most important qualities.   Of course, the best thing is to see the entertainment live and in person, but that is not always practical.  If you can't see them live, the next best way to shop is to look carefully at song lists. 

If the band plays forty songs (approximately 4 hours) of the styles and variety you like, then look at pictures and references, and most importantly, call references from similar events. 

Look for a great variety of music to suit all age groups.  Be sure the entertainers have plenty of experience with weddings.  Professional wedding musicians will pace the evening with soft and easy music during the cocktail reception and dinner part of the event and then gradually pick up the pace with more energetic music when it's time to dance.  

White Rabbit Entertainment also provides professional DJ services with their band packages.  You will not experience any dead space in between sets.  We will be posting a calendar where you can see us live and in action.  We also will be happy to provide you a long list of satisfied references.  White Rabbit Entertainment has and will continue to work with event planners and agencies.
