By Dennis Thompson


One of the best way to become acquainted with musicians is to get out and talk with people. Another way, is to use a service like Thumbtack or others which help event planners locate, place and pay talent for a variety of events. Whether looking for live bands for hire New York, or a local singer songwriter, these services can save time and money.

Since New York has a strong music and multicultural scene, there are often a number of different options when hiring entertainment. Whether seeking an Irish American, Jewish Klezmer, Classic Rock band or other entertainment, the sky is often the limit when it comes to finding talent in the Big Apple. As such, it is important to know the date of the event, desired music and style and budget before contacting a service.

Whether desiring to hire a band to play a club or social event in West Park, NY, there are a number of options. Thanks to new media like Facebook, YouTube and Twitter, event planners also have the opportunity to view videos of any bands of interest. As such, most planners like to narrow down the best entertainers, then make a final decision after reviewing audio or video cuts.

By using one of these services, event planners can save time by providing information related to the type music desired, date of event, time and budget. After which, the company provides a listing of several different entertainers, or live bands from which to choose. In most cases, the listing will also include a review of past performances and a selection of music samples.

As the music scene is quite varied, it is also essential to lock down the type music and specific songs to be played at the event. If hiring a cover band, it is often good to discuss different types of music which the band plays. In some cases, bands will be flexible on playing either one specific type music or a general set list from different genres.

While New York had seen a downturn in the live music scene, it appears a comeback is in process. The downturn was most likely temporary while people learned about streaming movies, music, videos and television. While these activities can be quite rewarding, a number of people have discovered there is still nothing quite like seeing a band live and in-person.

The city itself never gave up on the live music scene. Instead, a number of record companies, music magazines and recording studios have all moved to New York. As such, music still holds a viable place in the hearts, minds and souls of all New Yorkers.

Most musicians whether novice or experienced dream of playing venues like Carnegie Hall, Radio City and Madison Square Garden. While talent is one aspect of achieving these goals, dedication, time and the willingness to start out small and grow big are the most important. For, while many well known artists have played these venues, it took most a long time to get to that point.
