FAQs 11
- How would you describe your entertaining style?
- 45 Riots bring a genuine NYC concert experience to private events. Our brand was birthed in the Manhattan and Brooklyn nightclub circuits, playing residencies for years as a featured band on busy nights for packed rooms. This is where we refined our unique style and music arrangements.
- Can I work with you to customize a playlist?
- We learn all formal requests starting with ceremony processionals and recessional, reception intros, first dance, parent dances, cake-cutting, etc., up to five must-play general requests, and then we use your stylistic guidance as reference while we draw upon our enormously diverse repertoire.
- Are you willing to learn new songs that are important to me?
- As above.
- How many musicians and vocalists are in your band?
- We have a large collective of musicians who have been playing together for years in varied ensemble lineups. Everyone is intimately familiar with each other, sharing stages with one another every week with 45 Riots and outside of us too with their own music projects. It is truly a family.
- Is someone available to act as the emcee?
- One of our lead vocalists and/or the bandleader for your event ensemble will be happy to MC throughout the event as needed.
