Whatever kind of function you have, whether it be a party or a wedding, having a live covers band
playing can turn the event into a great success.

The band you choose must be able to play music that everyone is familiar with like the "classics"
rather than original songs. You are going to want the band to have a particular and fitting sound for
your event and this is where a covers band can do the trick.
You will see that even though they have a large area of songs they will tend to play songs from a
specific band or era.
Hence, they essentially churn out numbers written by others and perform them in their creator's
style and this is their strength.
So if you are interested in getting a cover band for your occasion, then there are a couple of things
you need to know and keep in mind.
Firstly, you should realize that your best friend in searching for an appropriate covers band will be
the internet.
The bands that you shortlist could be living in your own area or in the next town. The entire
searching process should however throw up a band that lives nearby.
This is actually to your advantage as, the farther they live, more is the amount of traveling
expanses that are incurred that you have to meet.
Online directories are also a great place to start your search.

2. Another reason you want to use the Internet to find the perfect covers band is that many of them
have uploaded files containing their music.
Usually the cover band would at least have a MySpace page uploaded where you get to hear all
their uploaded music files.
Some bands will have a better sound than some others will. This is where you must evaluate the
skill, sound and ability to make your decision.
Some bands however may not have any music uploaded on MySpace. You shouldn't however
disregard these groups. For all you know, they could be a very tight band. Devote some time
emailing them to send you a demo CD or a DVD.
Also, remember that you should know what you are looking for. What, if any, songs do you need
them to be familiar with and what styles should they be able to play in? Is there a dress code that
you need them to adhere to, and are there any important space concerns that you need to make
known to them?
The better the understanding of the job the band has will help the whole event run smoother.
You need to know a ball-park figure about what you are going to expect when it comes to the
budget. Know this by making inquiries into what other bands charge. Then think about the size of
your affair. Is the amount set aside for the fair, enough and fair?
Make sure that you have thought your selection over carefully. Because there are, many great
performers out there. As long as you have chosen well your event is going to be a great success!
