Production / Sound / Lighting (EPK Section)

Live Sound, Lighting & Production

The Donnie Evetts Band is fully self-contained and capable of providing professional sound and lighting for shows ranging from small acoustic performances to full band events and outdoor stages. We can run our own sound and lighting system when needed, or we can use a venue’s PA system and sound engineer if provided.

For acoustic and small venue shows, we use a Bose L1 system which is ideal for smaller rooms, restaurants, private events, and acoustic venues, providing clear, even sound without excessive volume.

For full band shows, we run a professional PA system with digital mixing, capable of handling bars, dancehalls, outdoor events, and festivals. We also travel with a sound engineer for shows where we provide sound, ensuring consistent mix quality and smooth show operation.

In addition to sound, we also provide our own stage lighting for full band shows, which adds to the live show atmosphere and allows us to perform in venues that may not have stage lighting available.
