Booking Background Music for Corporate Events
Classical quartets and Jazz bands are always a popular music choice for drinks receptions and during dinner. A new genre of this kind has been developing and proving more and more popular as an alternative to the more traditional forms. Many string quartets are offering an ‘electric set’ which gives clients the choice of either acoustic or amplified background music that takes contemporary and classical pieces and gives them a ‘twist’ on the original. Monaco, Dirty Pretty Strings, String Fever – all these Artists have fantastic repertoires that suit almost any occasion.
Another pioneer of ambient or background music is Stephen Hussey, an accomplished Musical Director and performer, who among other projects leads up the group Urban Soul Orchestra. They have been stunning audiences for some time now with their very original versions of songs, ranging from the Beatles to Oasis.
We have a full range of contemporary jazz bands, like Ronnie Scotts Rejects and pianists like Musical Director, Paul Moran and some fabulous strolling bands -some of which, like the musical comedy act, the Cosmic Sausages, are very humorous, as well as musically talented. Don’t forget to take a look at a group of very talented ladies, the Jazz A Belles, all of whom play the saxophone, in one form or another. They completely wow their audiences with their enthusiasm, flair and the very rare ability of being able to play more than 2 hours of material from memory.
Jillie Bushell Associates works with some of the most talented and sought after compilations in the industry. Whatever your event needs - a funkier, more cutting edge music style or a traditional more formal approach, we have a great selection of innovative new artists, who can really create an impression.
