Across the world, the coronavirus pandemic sent shock waves through the music industry and in-person events at large. After many weddings and events have been postponed or canceled, we’re learning to find new and creative ways to make the show go on. And with events both virtually hosted and put on in person, live music is a key ingredient. Our string ensembles and live bands for hire are prepared to help make the occasion happen either way.

With a home base in Orlando, Florida, our entertainment groups at Butler Music can are available around Central Florida, and can telecommute as well. Here, we outline two options for incorporating musical performances in your next event.

Live Music for Hire in Person

As the US starts to find its footing with reopening, events for the rest of the year and into 2022 may need to look a little different — and that could include smaller live wedding music groups or jazz ensembles for hire in person, incorporating a video component by default for guests who aren’t able to attend physically. Rest assured you can hire live music for your event that can be enjoyed by attendees near and far!

When keeping crowdedness at bay, our live music for hire can be custom fit to size. From solo pianists to jazz trios and string quartets, we can find a way to remain compliant with social distancing, capacity, and mask regulations.

On-site Music with Video Casting

To integrate video, we can either tune in to your Zoom or event link as another view of the action, which would work especially well for more choreographed ceremonies with intermittent music. Another option is to appoint a host or MC (say a member of the wedding party or other trusted guest) to carry around a single device, connecting attendees with each other, the performers, and the scene at large.

Virtual Music Performances

Hosting a fully online event? We’d be happy to put on a virtual performance via Zoom, Hangouts, or other video platform. Our live musicians are technologically prepared to set up and tune in remotely, while maintaining a professional look and sound. Worried about connectivity and logistics? Ask us to pre-record our personalized performance, just for your event. Consider us your partners in creativity!
