Austin Corporate Entertainment & Event Bands
Interactive live band entertainment for the Live Music Capital of the World. Austin tech crowds, convention attendees, and corporate teams — your music, your rules.
Interactive Corporate Entertainment for the Live Music Capital
Austin wears its "Live Music Capital of the World" title with pride — and rightfully so. With 250+ live music venues, your corporate event guests have probably already heard a phenomenal band today. So the question isn't whether you can find good music in Austin. The question is whether your corporate entertainment can offer something Austin audiences haven't experienced before.
uRequest Live answers that question with a resounding yes. We bring a format that's uniquely suited to Austin's culture: a world-class live band that your guests personally control through their phones. Every attendee browses our catalog, requests songs, and votes on what we play next. The technology is seamless, the musicianship is top-tier, and the result is an experience that resonates deeply with Austin's intersection of tech innovation and musical passion.
Based in Toronto, we've performed for Fortune 500 companies and major events across North America. Austin's explosive growth as a tech hub — home to Tesla, Apple, Google, Meta, Oracle, and hundreds of startups — means the city's corporate events increasingly need entertainment that reflects the innovative spirit of the companies hosting them. A standard cover band on Sixth Street won't cut it for your product launch or company gala. Interactive, tech-powered, crowd-controlled live music? That's Austin.
All Request Live
Real-time audience voting powers the setlist. Austin's eclectic music taste — indie, country, hip-hop, rock — shines when the crowd controls the genre mix themselves.

Austin loves participation. Give your team the mic backed by professional musicians and watch the energy explode. Perfect for team-building events and company celebrations.
Tech Event Entertainment
SXSW-adjacent parties, product launches, hackathon celebrations — our tech-powered interactive format is the natural entertainment choice for Austin's innovation ecosystem.
Why Austin Events Need Interactive Entertainment
Austin has experienced staggering corporate growth, with major tech companies relocating headquarters and expanding campuses across the city. This has created a unique corporate entertainment challenge: your event attendees are tech-native, musically literate, and accustomed to consumer-grade digital experiences in every aspect of their lives. They notice when entertainment feels analog or outdated.
uRequest Live speaks their language. The interactive platform feels intuitive to people who spend their days building apps and shipping products. But unlike a gimmicky tech demo, the experience is powered by genuinely excellent live musicians who can pivot between genres in real time. When the crowd votes for Willie Nelson followed by Beyonce followed by Radiohead, our band delivers all three with conviction. That combination of tech elegance and musical chops is what makes Austin audiences sit up and take notice.
There's a cultural fit too. Austin prides itself on being different — "Keep Austin Weird" isn't just a bumper sticker, it's a value system. Cookie-cutter corporate entertainment doesn't fly here. Companies like Dell, Indeed, and Whole Foods (all headquartered in Austin) invest in events that reflect their brand identity: innovative, people-first, and genuinely engaging. Interactive entertainment where employees shape the experience embodies those values.
