Thanks, Frank! And Bette, Bobby… and Michael Buble!

More and more, party planners and corporate party committees are re- discovering the beauty of live music, and realizing that it doesn’t take an enormous band to play wonderful standards for people who apprecaite good music.

Thanks to the ever fabulous recordings of Frank Sinatra, Bette Midler, Bobby Darin, Michael Buble and others, the standards have not been forgotten.

Small combo bands, making music the old-fashioned way…and creating a panoply of emotions that take you on a trip …inside yourself.

It’s a beautiful thing.

Live Music for Asian Weddings

A traditional Asian wedding means well-planned details. And it often means great live music.

Gracious, elegant and whimsical live music can be enjoyed by many generations.

Today’s elegant Asian bride loves mixing traditional details with personalized music.

Broadway and movie musicals, the standards of Cole Porter, George Gershwin and Irving Berlin and a lovely variety of Old Hollywood and vintage styles appeal to Asian brides and their families.

It’s the greatest music that’s ever been written!

Corporate Event Entertainment: Hire A Live Band!

Having an awards banquet and putting a dance floor down in front of the stage? Be sure to encourage people to dance between dinner courses, and don’t wait until after the awards ceremony to begin the danceing. Your guests will be long gone.

There’s an art to corporate event entertainment, and it doesn’t always have to do with dancing.

Live music, a great floor plan and delicious food…

That’s right, a great floor plan!

Sometimes that means not putting the band on a stage, especially if there is a hardwood floor or other kind of “natural” stage available.

But every event is different, every room is different — and every nuance of staging and table placement counts. Lighting counts, too. There’s a lot to think about.

Turn down those lights, relax and enjoy some live music.

Played by a live band, of course.
