Why book professional live singers?
Live music has a way of engaging any audience at any venue. However, when you specifically find a vocalist for hire, they can bring a unique edge to your night unlike any other performer.
Live singers can connect directly with their audience, adapt their set list and musical style in an instant, and carry the night to success with the sound of their voice alone.
Will a live singer bring their own equipment and setlist?
If you do have a special song request or genre guidelines, you will be able to outline this within your gig template for your venue.
As for equipment, it is best to put this info within your gig template so you can let the artist know what equipment your venue has available.
