See and hear
Videos and recordings of real performances show how MAXiN carries an evening musically. Understated in appearance. Absolute in effect.
The melody you already know
A few bars in, and the whole dance floor knows what is coming. That is exactly when we take the song somewhere nobody expected. Live, loud, just for this one night.
Live mix
MAXiN blends hits, classics, pop, dance, rock, Latin, Italo and funk into one continuous live mix that responds to the audience and the mood. No rigid concept, no fixed setlist.
The right line-up for the right moment
As a trio at the reception, as a full party band when the room explodes, or acoustic, with no stage set-up and no electricity. MAXiN chooses the formation that carries the evening.
All over Switzerland and internationally
MAXiN plays all over Switzerland, from Zurich, Bern, Basel and Lucerne to Zug, Winterthur, St. Gallen, Aargau, Thurgau and Valais, and internationally, wherever the occasion calls for it.
Wedding, destination wedding, corporate event
MAXiN shapes weddings, destination weddings and corporate events with a clear signature of its own. Especially at international events, we bring a well-established portfolio and a great deal of experience in planning and execution. In Italy, our bandleader’s Italian background helps too, from working with local partners to the logistics on site.
Musically, we are just as versatile: we sing accent-free in German, English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and French. On request even entire sets in the respective language, not just individual songs.
For corporate events, the band works directly with brands, agencies and event planners. Line-up, sound and flow tailored to the occasion, the brand and the audience.
Straight talk
Whether the bar stands next to the stage sorts itself out. What matters is what really carries an evening. And that is exactly what we discuss when we meet in person, ideally before the event technology has been booked. Because there is a lot to talk about. That includes the technology: MAXiN works with high-end brands such as L-Acoustics, an international standard for professional live sound, as well as ACME and Astera for lighting and LED. No anonymous budget light sets on three-legged stands flashing wildly in every colour. But professional equipment that matches MAXiN’s standards in sound, look and technology.
FAQ
What is MAXiN?
A Swiss live band and party band for weddings, corporate events and exclusive celebrations.
What does a live band like MAXiN cost?
MAXiN is not one of the cheapest live bands. There is a reason for that. An evening with MAXiN doesn’t happen just because four musicians play good songs. Behind it are years of experience, our own arrangements, musical precision, professional technology and, above all, the ambition to shape a performance at the highest level from the first to the last minute. Booking MAXiN isn’t simply booking music for an evening. It is the certainty that everything comes together on stage: musically, technically and as a performance.
The price is usually between CHF 4500 and 7500. Travel costs are included. Which line-up fits is something we work out together in a personal conversation.
Which line-ups are available?
From two people on stage to an eleven-piece live formation: MAXiN grows with the moment. Sometimes in front of thousands at Moon & Stars Locarno, sometimes at a wedding on the Amalfi Coast, where 90 guests suddenly become their own little festival crowd. The standard line-up already has everything it takes to bring a room to life. If the occasion calls for more, MAXiN grows flexibly up to the full eleven-piece formation. Bigger, denser, louder. Or completely different: acoustic, stripped back, intimate. Just the essentials. Often with saxophone. MAXiN doesn’t play to the size of the event, but to the size of the moment.
Acoustic also as a roaming band (strolling acoustic band) right among the guests, without any electricity. More on the Line-ups page.
Which music styles?
From pop, dance, jazz and world music to Italo, Latin, rock and funk. Current hits meet timeless classics, mixed live. From a large rotation of songs, the band decides spontaneously, based on the mood, what to play next, often before the current song has ended, when the bandleader passes the next song to the musicians right on stage. This way of playing has defined MAXiN for almost 20 years and is unique in this form in Switzerland.
Where does MAXiN play?
All over Switzerland, including Zurich, Bern, Basel, Lucerne, Zug, Winterthur, St. Gallen, Aargau, Ticino, Geneva and Valais, and internationally. Abroad, MAXiN has played in Italy (Ravello on the Amalfi Coast, Tuscany, Stresa on Lake Maggiore, Brindisi, Sardinia), in Austria (aboard the MS Sonnenkönigin in Bregenz, in Lech, Zürs and St. Anton), in Germany (Lindau, Konstanz, Munich), in Provence, France, and in Liechtenstein. In Switzerland, for example, at the Zurich Opera House, at Moon & Stars in Locarno, at The Dolder Grand and the Baur au Lac in Zurich, on the Bürgenstock and at Badrutt’s Palace in St. Moritz. There are dedicated party band pages for Zurich, Bern, Basel, Lucerne, St. Gallen, Aargau, Graubünden and Ticino. Understated in appearance. Absolute in effect.
