Tuscany and Celebration a heady mix

But firstly congratulations!
Whatever it is you are celebrating, you have chosen a region that is second to none. We regularly have to pinch ourselves to ensure we are awake when visiting Tuscany! The Tuscan hills, the beautiful ‘castelli & ville’, towns steeped in art and history. Combine this with the delicious food and wine and this makes the perfect setting for a fantastic celebration. Add to that a sprinkling of musical magic and you’ll create memories for years to come.
Further more, there are hidden gems in each of the regions. In particular Massa-Carrara, Lucca, Pitoia, Prato Arezzo and Grosseto have so much to offer. In addition, the world renowned cities of Sienna, Florence and Pisa are great places to revisit, time and time again.
Therefore each year we are blessed to discover new venues and places through our live music performances.
We have been very lucky creating events everywhere in the Tuscan Region. We have arranged live music performances in sumptuous castles and villas, on beaches and in the hills. Whether they have been weddings, corporate events or special celebrations, our live bands and DJs always enjoy the experience. Consequently we feel very connected to the region – it’s a magical place.
How we work
A perfect moment in Tuscany
Our bands and DJs are year-round professional entertainers. As you may have gathered from our title – Après Ski Bands – we have our main operations in the French, Italian and Swiss Alps. This is where our musicians spend much of the winter. They perform in private chalets, 4 and 5 star hotels and pumping après ski party venues! In other words they are highly experienced, frequently adapting to perform in many different ways. For instance, the same band can perform background music to create a subtle ambiance. Equally, they can play for an audience in a sophisticated manner or simply turn up and ignite the party! Above all, our artists are extremely versatile.
In the summer months they are busy playing in the wider region for special events, weddings and festivals. Our bands and DJs in Tuscany are busy every weekend throughout the summer therefore we do advise you to book well in advance.
It’s as easy as 1 2 3
1 – Browse our Bands and DJs or our Youtube Channel
2 – Send us a first enquiry – Let us know about your event and which artists you are interested in
3 – One of our team will message you back!

What our DJs and Bands in Tuscany will bring to the party!
The Odd Socks strolling Band, ideal wedding music for the beautiful streets and piazza of Florence and Pisa – Odd Socks Video
Many of our Bands and DJs are a relatively short drive from most locations in Tuscany. Therefore they have their own musical equipment on board. In other words, in most cases no flights aren’t needed. In addition to reducing costs, this makes logistics easier for everyone.
This is what you can expect from our bands and DJs
- Bands can learn special songs for that first dance of the evening and the closing moment of the night
- DJs can play from a list of pre-selected titles
- All of our artists read the crowd for what to play. No set will ever be exactly the same as every client and each event is unique. Above all we pride ourselves on the versatility of our musicians and DJs!
- Our bands in Tuscany and the surrounding area can play in a strolling style or un-amplified way. For example here’s a video of Odd Socks showing the theatre and class a strolling band can offer your guests. Absolute perfection for champagne receptions or intimate gatherings!
- Band-e-Oke – You and your guests now have the chance to be the rock stars! Live the dream and sing a song with the full backing of a professional band!
- Most of all – we believe that memories are made on the dance floor. An Après Ski Bands act will provide one of the most memorable moments on your most significant of days!
You the client, at the centre of the planning, preparation and big day of celebration
Why use Après Ski Bands – a professional events agency – to book my DJ and Live bands in Tuscany?
Quite simply, why would you leave it to chance? We are in an enviable position to hand-pick from the best bands and DJs around. Bands and DJs that regularly play, reside and tour Europe – and know how to fill the dancefloors of Tuscany!
We work alongside our bands every day to give them valuable feedback and advice about performances. Subsequently they are continuously perfecting their performances. In other words our regular public gigs in ski resorts are an excellent training ground for your special day!
Often, clients will see our bands performing at friends’ events or in European ski resorts. Maybe you have seen our bands and that’s how you found us? Do you ski in Zermatt, Val D’Isère, Méribel, Courchevel, Courmeyeur, Val Thorens or Crans Montana? Please tell us where you ski, because maybe you have seen our musicians and DJs already!
Most of all, despite this size of our roster and wide range of choice, we pride ourselves on offering a very personalised and bespoke service. We know all of our musicians on a personal level. As a result of that connection, we will work with you so you feel certain you’ve made the right choice.
