Should you have live musicians at your event? It's a question getting asked more often. Live music isn’t just entertainment—it’s a gift to your guests. Watching an artist perform their craft live hits differently than hearing pre-recorded tracks. These days, people expect more from their event entertainment.
Not long ago, throwing a great event was all about good food and music. You nailed those two, and everything else kind of handled itself. Back then, DJing was more about setting the vibe and letting guests entertain themselves. The edge was having access to music libraries no one else could touch and crafting a killer setlist with seamless mixes. People were happy to stay on the dance floor all night long without needing anything extra.
Fast forward to now, and everyone has access to massive playlists and mixes right on their phone. The novelty of a good DJ set isn’t enough anymore to wow a crowd. That’s why I’ve been incorporating the sax into most of my gigs—it’s my way of leveling up. Hybrid entertainment gives people the best of both worlds: the energy of live performance and the seamless flow of a DJ set. It’s an experience, not just a party, and that’s what people are after these days.
