Frequently Asked Questions
Why hire our dhol professionals for your events?
1. It adds an element of surprise for your guests. Most, if not all of your guests will already be accustomed to going to South Asian weddings. But not every wedding has dhol players and the ones that do sometimes stick to having them at the baraat. But just imagine a dhol professional making a surprise appearance during your reception or sangeet!
2. It gets your guests moving and cheering. Not everyone gets up and dances as soon as the music starts. But when you add in a dhol player, it adds fun and excitement that makes it irresistible to get moving.
3. It’s a way to add a tradition to your wedding that can easily be modernized. Dhol players are traditionally a big part of the baraat, but many brides are also making them a big part of their wedding reception, too. By layering dhol beats with modern music from the DJ, it adds a fun twist and encourages your guests to dance.
4. Dhol players add a fun touch of culture to your wedding that will impress non-South Asian guests. If you are having a fusion wedding or are expecting guests that are not South Asian, you’ll want a dhol player to be a part of the festivities because it’ll be an interesting way to showcase our beautiful culture. It instantly becomes one of the highlights at a wedding that people won’t stop talking about long after it’s done.
5. It instantly creates the kind of moment that becomes one of the highlights of your wedding. Imagine your guests saying, “We were dancing and then all of the sudden a dhol player came out of nowhere and started layering his beats with the DJ’s. The crowd went crazy!” That’s the power of having an exceptional dhol drummer!
Which events are best to include the dhol?
The baraat is of course considered the event most of us think about when we think of the dhol drummer. However, brides are also including them as part of sangeet dances and performances. And of course, when you want to spice up the reception and get more people on the dance floor, a dhol professional is the secret ingredient that will make that happen.
Couldn’t I just get my friend/cousin/uncle/etc. to play the dhol?
Sure, you could. But that means that they’ll miss out on the experience of just enjoying the wedding and being there as the guest. They’ll be too busy trying to get ready, do it well, and keep the crowd pumped up. When you hire a pro, you won’t have to worry this.
Is it really worth it to hire a dhol drummer when I have other costs for the wedding?
We all plan to get married once and you want to do it right. Your wedding day comes just once and it’ll go by fast for you but will be something your guests will remember for a long time.
The dhol helps makes the entrance of the groom powerful and memorable.
The sound of the dhol gets even the shyest guest to tap their feet, move their body and really get get lost in the music.
Long story short: It’s one wedding investment that no one ever regrets making because it makes your wedding unforgettable.
