Resident Event Ideas
Live Music at Home
When it comes to resident event ideas, why not consider live music? Music Dept has solos, duos, and trios who will entertain your residents in the comfort of their own community room. Anytime you can bring people together in an apartment building is a win-win. There is nothing like being in the room with live music. For 2020 we also have socially distant and virtual options.
Thematic music is a top choice for resident events. We have mariachi for Cinco De Mayo and Irish Duos for St. Patrick’s Day. Patriotic Music for Fourth of July or Indian music for Diwali.
A Steel Drum Band will make any outdoor event an effortless success or how about a roving a’capella group singing custom lyrics about the building?
Resident events are ideal for young families, so music for kid’s or a magic show is another great choice.
We’ve found that many of the thematic music that once took place exclusively in country clubs are moving to luxury apartment buildings.

FAQ: Live Music for Resident Event
A solo performer starts $300 for a 1-2 hour event
For a 2-hour event we will play straight through. Everyone’s attention span is limited, especially with kids in tow, so we keep it engaging the whole time.
Yes! Our musicians who play for resident events are extremely professional. They work in high-stress wedding and corporate events, but they also know how to entertain kids and families.
A solo or duo can usually work within a 7×5 space.
Yes! We can perform out on a patio or serenade guests on their balconies. Live music in a lobby is also a timeless and elegant touch. For virtual options our solo performers excel on Instagram Live, YouTube Live, Zoom, and more. We feel that conversation and customization are the key to a successful virtual performance. Residents can ask questions in a salon style format, make song requests, musical mad-libs, or custom songs about the building and neighborhood.
We are fully insured and our policy meets the rigorous standards of NYC luxury buildings.
