The Band, Built Around You
There is no standard You Pick Entertainment show. Every configuration, every set list, every moment is built for the couple or client in front of us.
Design Your EventWe do not have a show we run. We learn your music, we study your timeline, and we show up ready to perform the night you have been picturing. What follows is everything we offer. If you are not sure where to start, reach out and we will help you figure out exactly what makes sense for your event, your venue, and your budget.
Three ways to book us
Your Playlist
A fully live, fully customizable band performing the entire duration of your event with no pre-recorded tracks. The more pieces you add, the fuller the sound. We run on an in-ear monitor system, so transitions between songs are seamless: we move between songs the way a DJ does, while playing everything completely live. During dinner our musicians rotate in shifts, so the team gets a rest and the music never stops.
Eddie & Gabby, The Duo
Eddie and Gabby perform the broadest repertoire of any two-person act you will find. Every decade from the fifties to right now, every genre from Motown to country to hip-hop to pop. If you shout a request, they know it.
- Cocktail hours that set the tone before the reception
- Intimate ceremonies, personal and warm
- Smaller venues where a full band would overpower the room
- Birthdays and private events where the full band is more than the moment calls for
DJ Hybrid
A professional DJ anchors the evening while live musicians move through the crowd, performing in real time. The result feels electric in a way neither a DJ alone nor a band alone can quite achieve. Popular pairings: electric violin and DJ, saxophone and DJ, guitar and DJ, lead vocals and DJ, or any combination.
The core band
The heart of what we do is a tight, high-energy seven-piece that covers every genre and fills every dance floor.
Core 7-piece: lead female vocals, lead male vocals, keys, guitar, bass, drums, saxophone.
Scale to 8 to 11 pieces by adding trumpet, trombone, tenor saxophone, electric violin, or a second vocalist. The bigger the band, the bigger and more layered the sound.
Included in every package
- Full PA system, in all locations when needed

- An emcee for all announcements, working with your coordinator

Add-ons
Shape the night exactly the way you want it.
Ceremony musicians
Solo through quartet arrangements for your ceremony, completely separate from your reception band. Tell us the mood and we build the right ensemble.
Additional horns
Trumpet, trombone, and tenor saxophone are available as add-ons to any full band package for a bigger, brassier sound.
Cocktail hour musicians
One musician is included. Upgrade with a small ensemble, a second instrument, or a vocalist to carry the hour.
Overtime
Our standard reception package covers four hours of live performance. Need more time? Overtime is available in increments.
Multilingual repertoire
Our roster includes musicians and vocalists who perform in Spanish, Hebrew, Italian, Greek, and other languages for cultural traditions.
Officiant microphone
A dedicated microphone setup for your officiant during the ceremony. Clean, simple, and a bigger difference than couples expect.
Stage lighting
Professional stage lighting designed to work with your venue and your aesthetic. The difference between a band in a room and a performance.
DJ after-party
When the live set wraps, our DJ after-party transitions seamlessly from the band into a full DJ set, so the energy never drops.
Common questions
How many pieces is the band?
Our most popular full band ranges from seven to eleven pieces. The core seven-piece covers every genre; you can add trumpet, trombone, tenor saxophone, electric violin, or a second vocalist to scale up to eleven.
Is everything performed live?
Yes. Your Playlist and the Duo are fully live with no backing tracks. The DJ Hybrid blends a professional DJ with live musicians performing in real time, so you get both.
Does the music stop during dinner?
No. Our musicians rotate in and out in shifts during dinner so the team gets a rest and the music keeps going. Your guests will not feel the change.
Can you play our specific songs and cultural music?
There is nothing we will not play live. We build your set list from your requests, and our roster performs in Spanish, Hebrew, Italian, Greek, and other languages when your event calls for it.
Do you provide sound and an emcee?
Both are included in every package. A sound engineer arrives two hours early to set up and run a full PA all night, and an emcee handles announcements and works with your coordinator to keep the timeline moving.
All night long
We keep every single person on the dance floor. Tell us what you are picturing and we will build the band around it.
