Photo of Saxman Saxman "We booked Vadym for a family reunion celebration and would highly reccomend him. His playlist was perfect, the sound quality was excellent and he was totally flexible in catering for our requirements. Very professional. Thank you, Vadym. You were absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much for making the event so perfect for everyone." Based in Mississauga, Ontario (66 miles from Stratford) Irene - Family reunion Photo of Gary Taylor Guitar Gary Taylor Guitar "Gary was such a wonderful musical addition to our event! He arrived on time with his own gear and was very attentive to our schedule and expectations. When there was a lull he took initiative and did some additional songs and kept the vibe going. As a musician his performance was great. Both instrumentally and vocally very talented. We asked him to engage with the crowd, he didn't hesitate and his interactions came naturally. He even collaborated and improvised with other performers! He was extremely friendly and polite with us and our guests. Thank you Gary for your special contribution to our night!"

Based in Toronto, Ontario (80 miles from Stratford) Priya Photo of Aurora Quartet Aurora Quartet "The Aurora string quartet played the ceremony and cocktail hour of the wedding. They were absolutely wonderful. Better than expected. The players are so professional! They added music to their repertoire for our event on request. Everything they did was perfect. Top marks for this group of great musicians." Based in Toronto, Ontario (80 miles from Stratford) Aurora string quartet - Wedding of Andrew and Jessica Photo of Samantha Clayton Music Samantha Clayton Music "[With regard to your new album, Conflict of Love":] For you to make such a fresh sounding work with such a minimal instrumentation - you are a very very talented songwriter and arranger and your vocal approach is both comforting and risky."

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring acoustic bands is $800, with prices from $230 to $2,850+. Pricing depends on the number of band members, performance duration and whether additional equipment such as a PA system is included. Acoustic bands vary widely in line-up, from duos to larger ensembles, and this is typically the biggest factor in cost.

The acoustic bands for hire perform a wide range of genres in an acoustic or unplugged style, including pop, rock, folk, indie, country and classic hits. The acoustic format gives songs a more intimate and relaxed feel, making it a versatile choice for many types of events.

Common events for acoustic bands include weddings, drinks receptions, garden parties, intimate corporate events, restaurants and venues with noise restrictions. The softer acoustic sound allows guests to enjoy live music while still being able to hold conversations.

The acoustic bands on Gig Heaven range from solo acoustic performers and duos up to full acoustic ensembles of four or five musicians. A smaller act suits intimate settings, while a larger group provides a fuller sound. Many acts offer flexible line-up options depending on the event.

Many acoustic bands offer the flexibility to switch between acoustic and amplified sets during an event. This allows the music to start quietly during dinner or drinks and build in energy later in the evening. It is worth discussing this option with the band when making an enquiry.

Some acoustic bands perform entirely unplugged and need no power at all, while others use small amplifiers or microphones that require a standard power outlet. For outdoor events, a portable power source may be needed. It is a good idea to confirm any power requirements with the band before the event.
