How we work to book wedding bands and DJs in the Dordogne region
That first dance shouldn’t be left to chance!
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 playing in private chalets, 4 and 5 star hotels and also pumping après ski party venues. In other words they are more than capable to perform in many different ways. For instance the same band can play in the background, play in a sophisticated manner or ignite the party. Above all our acts are extremely versatile.
In the summer months they are busy playing in the wider region for special events and festivals. Our DJs and Bands in the Dordogne are busy every weekend throughout the summer therefore we do advise you to book well in advance. We regularly have to pinch ourselves to ensure we are awake when visiting Dordogne! The countryside, the wine and the magnificent châteaux makes a great place for a fantastic celebration. Add to that a sprinkling of musical magic and you create memories for years to come. And we always say that memories are made on the dance floor!
