HYBRID DJ · LIVE MUSICIANS
A DJ-led soundtrack for your wedding, layered with live musicians from our own team. Built for smaller venues, intimate guest counts, and highly specific music tastes.
CHECK AVAILABILITYHOW IT WORKS
Most of our weddings call for the full Signature Band experience. But some venues, and some couples, call for something else: a DJ-driven soundtrack with the flexibility to play anything, layered with live instrumentation that keeps the room feeling human. That is the Hybrid DJ option.
Erika leads the set from behind the booth, with one or more of our own musicians performing live on top of it, not a pickup band assembled the week of your weddin; We're an assembled team who actively rehearses and performes together.
The single biggest risk with any hybrid DJ act is a DJ and musicians who have never actually played together.
Ours have.
YOUR DJ
Erika is a professional vocalist and DJ, and a Top 10 American Idol finalist (2012), who has spent years building custom soundtracks for weddings across New England. She reads a room in real time, curates a set around your taste, whether that is current hits, nostalgic throwbacks, or a blend of both, and keeps the night moving without a single dead moment between songs.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR SOUND
Every Hybrid package starts with Erika behind the booth.
From there, layer in up to three live musicians to match your venue and vision.
01
Acoustic or electric guitar brings warmth to cocktail hour and texture to the dance floor.
02
Live percussion adds punch and momentum under the DJ set, especially during high-energy stretches of the night.
03
A live sax line turns a favorite track into a moment, perfect for a first dance or a surprise mid-set solo.
Mix and match one, two, or all three, alongside Erika's DJ set, to build the exact sound your wedding calls for.
WHY IT WORKS
The best hybrid sets sound like one seamless performance. The worst sound like a musician playing over a track they have never heard before. The difference comes down to one question: has this DJ and these musicians actually rehearsed and performed together? At Boston Common Band, the answer is always yes. Every hybrid pairing comes from our own roster, the same musicians who play our Signature Band shows, which means the chemistry is already there before your wedding day.
