Photo of Barrio Cubano Barrio Cubano "The guys put on an excellent set and we recieved lots of compliements from our guests. They were very professional and organised. Arrived pleanty of time in advance and communicated clearly with us from before we booked to the day of our event!" Based in Dublin, Leinster 29th August 2026 Eoin - Summer Barbacue Photo of Shindig Wedding Band Shindig Wedding Band "Simply the best. As I said many times, we were not looking for a wedding band in Ireland, we wanted an Irish Band that does weddings. Well we found them. In March of 2024 my wife and I were in Ireland to preview my daughter's wedding venue in Co. Monaghan at Castle Leslie. We did not have a band yet and happened into Temple Bar and fortunately for us Sparky was playing with an awesome fiddle player and we were hooked. Quick conversation and some planning with Gav and they were booked. They were incredibly accommodating and helped coordinate all of the music for the day including ceremony, Cocktail 2 Hours(!), Shindig for the evening and even a DJ inserted in the middle. They also worked with me and my band to do some of the first dances etc. for my daughter and our families. As a musician myself, I know good when I see it and these guys were awesome! I can't wait to play with them again!"

Based in Dublin, Leinster Team indie Spice - Indie Spice Photo of Jerry Miles Jerry Miles "I recently had the pleasure of hiring Jerry Miles as a guitarist for my 40th birthday celebration at my house, and I couldn't have been more thrilled with his performance. Jerry's exceptional talent and professionalism truly made my event a memorable and enjoyable experience. One of the standout moments for me was when Jerry went above and beyond by learning a song that I specifically requested. It meant a lot to me, and I was absolutely thrilled when he flawlessly performed it during the event. I have no problem recommending Jerry for any event Tom, Deleek."

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring acoustic bands is €500, with prices from €150 to €1,650+. 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.
