Photo of The Waltzing Matildas The Waltzing Matildas "We asked Valerie Hudson of the Waltzing Matilda’s to play piano and sing at the Celebration of Life ceremony for my wife’s mother. The event was to celebrate the 99 years of her life. It was a very uplifting and emotional event and Valerie’s renditions of jazz tunes including I Will Always Love You, Smile, Wonderful World, Blue Sky, I’ll be Seeing You and others were very well done and added immensely to the celebration. Thanks Valerie!"

Very happy with the way he had interaction with the crowd and his singing." Based in Calgary, Alberta 17th May 2026 Dale - Self Photo of Wakeup Starlight Wakeup Starlight "I had Wakeup Starlight come play for my husband's 40th birthday. They were AMAZING! So fun! I had a ton of compliments from my guests on how great the band was. They came with all the production and I didn't have to do anything. They are all super personable and easy to communicate with. The transaction itself was flawless. I would HIGHLY recommend these guys, in fact I'd love to have another event just to have them back." Based in Calgary, Alberta Shelby Livingstone - Birthday event Photo of Playing With Fire Playing With Fire "Hello..I, along with friends, have seen this band twice in the last couple of months..once at St. Albert casino and then at Newcastle in Edmonton..our group dances all night so appreciate a good band that keeps us on the dance floor..this band, PLAYING WITH FIRE, did just that..it was a very fun night. Apparently, in the near future, they are going to be playing some new songs..interested to see what they have in store. If anything like the present we will be happy to see them live again. Check this band out. You will be happy you did." Based in Edmonton, Alberta Donna Photo of Moving Lines Moving Lines "“Powerful voice “Moving Lines - Love the way she sings very flattering stardom vocalist. audiences suggesting. their penchant for excess and the hyper-intense of their music is great. Based on their excellent band”. Moving Lines - the lead singer-songwriter has her words perfectly establish what’s to follow. Across the record’s “Dreams Will Never Die “ is one of the best vocalists I’ve heard for a while. The highlighting that the band developments and will be successes are ultimately their own reward for the experimentation on display. Great Work…..”" Based in Summerland, British Columbia Grimes Magazine Photo of Annika & the Earthlings Annika & the Earthlings "Thanks for a fantastic evening!

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring cover bands is $1,400, with prices from $280 to $5,000+. Pricing is mainly driven by the number of band members, performance duration and whether the band supplies its own sound and lighting equipment. Cover bands range from small acoustic acts to large party bands, so the line-up and production level have the biggest impact on cost.

Hiring cover bands is one of the most popular entertainment choices for weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, festivals and private celebrations. A good cover band plays recognisable songs that get guests singing and dancing, making them a reliable option for events where a full dance floor is the goal.

The cover bands cover a huge range of genres including pop, rock, soul, funk, disco, indie, hip hop and current chart hits. Many cover bands specialise in a particular era or style, while others offer a broad mix designed to appeal to all ages and tastes. Browsing band profiles on Gig Heaven is the best way to find the right musical fit.

Most cover bands are self-contained and provide their own PA system, instruments, amplifiers and stage lighting for standard event venues. For larger spaces or outdoor events, additional equipment may be required. It is a good idea to confirm all technical and staging details with the band before booking.

Many cover bands are happy to learn a specific song for a first dance or other special moment. To get the best results, make this request as early as possible, as some songs require additional rehearsal. Most bands will learn at least one special request at no extra charge.

Standard performance times for cover bands are two to three hours, usually split into two or three sets. Many function bands offer DJ or background music services between sets, and some can extend their evening with additional acoustic or DJ-only slots. Performance formats can usually be adjusted to fit the event schedule.
