MAY NEWS AND HAPPENINGS

Happy summer!

Summertime is the perfect time to add live music to many occasions and capture the feeling of the season. Summer music is upbeat, yet laid-back. Whether it’s a special gathering and celebration with friends and family, a poolside party, a garden party or a cultural event, music will make your event more pleasurable and memorable. Enhancing a summer party experience can be as simple as adding one of our versatile jazz combos or electro performances.

Stage Gear for solo performances: Making a sound impression

To be able to continuously monitor entertainment and production quality during live performance requires an assortment of equipment for the solo performer.

A solo performer needs to use a system that is technically fully reliable and provides ease of portability, fast setup, simple operation, and is adaptable for expandability. In his solo electro-acoustic performances with LB Jazz +One and MïxT Beatz, multi-instrumentalist Laurent Bass uses a powerful compact and minimal set up that incorporates state-of-the art stage gear and some of the latest technology in order to create high quality sound and stage performances.

Our solo set up is designed to perform in many applications, from small intimate receptions to large stage performances.
