SINGER GUITARIST VS LIVE BAND

When thinking of entertainment for an event, the idea of a live band has always been more popular than solo musicians. There is no question that a live band brings a level of energy and excitement to a performance that singer-guitarists simply can’t match. But a solo musician can be the better option in some circumstances:

• If you prefer a more intimate mellow type of vibe
• If your event takes place in smaller venues or you have limited space for the entertainment. 

A number of advantages singer-guitarists have over live bands:

•  Singer-guitarists are typically more affordable than live bands. 
• Singer-guitarists are more versatile, able to play a wider range of music styles because it takes much more time for a full band to practice new songs than a solo musician.
•  Singer-guitarists require less space and equipment

Guitarist and vocalist LOLAH has been known to use a loop pedal during her live performances. This device allows for an endless supply of beats, allowing the music creator complete creative freedom with every performance touch. LOLAH would record her own guitar riffs and vocals while performing live. With this loop pedal, she can also harmonize herself. With skillful use of the device, LOLAH can sound like a three-piece-band while still offering the lively atmosphere you’d expect watching someone play their own instruments rather than singing over backing tracks.
