5/5 from 2,725 reviews
Photo of Back in the Saddle Back in the Saddle "Very nicely done, good sound and presentation. Spoke with a member during the band's break, very cordial and nice conversation. Will defiantly recommend the group and look forward to hearing them again soon." Based in Albuquerque, New Mexico Maui jared Clawson - Grants Fly-In Photo of Brittani Jay live Brittani Jay live "We held a large, corporate party for 600 guests at Lucky Strike in Phoenix. Brittani Jay live band was awesome, entertaining and professional! I found the band through Gigmasters, and I really like the samples there and that they had positive reviews on that site. From booking to the actual event, everything was very easy and efficient. They took note of what our musical requests were from a pre-event meeting and were very accommodating. Would definitely recommend and hire them again for sure!" Based in Mesa, Arizona (317 miles from Albuquerque) 24th October 2025 Vince Quinn - NAACP leaders Photo of Belladonna Belladonna "The guys are really great! Professional, entertaining, engaging and fun. Great talent and song choices. Had the place up and dancing and really enjoying themselves." Based in Gilbert, Arizona (317 miles from Albuquerque) David Shafer Photo of Jazzona Jazzona "Working with Doug and the band (Jazzona) was a great experience. Very professional and reliable. The music was fantastic and lively. I received several compliments from my members stating how much they enjoyed Jazzona and the "vibe" they brought, We look forward to many more booking with them. Highly recommended!" Based in Phoenix, Arizona (330 miles from Albuquerque) 18th January 2026 Steve - Fletcher's Lounge Park City UT Photo of Chad Freeman and Redline Chad Freeman and Redline "Chad was great to work with, smooth communication, on time and great sound equipment. The band was amazing! Our attendees loved it." Based in Phoenix, Arizona (330 miles from Albuquerque) Roseanna - Citywire Financial Publishers Ltd. Photo of Mike Goodrick Mike Goodrick "We've had the pleasure of having Mike play at our Cider Taproom regularly, and the vibe he brings to the room is always a hit. Whether he's covering pop, rock, or indie favorites, he connects with our customers and makes every night feel special. But the real game-changer has been his Acoustic Emo Nights. Every time he hosts one, our profits jump by at least 40% compared to a regular night. The energy is incredible, and the crowd loves the all-requests format. It's become one of our most popular events, and we can't recommend him enough for any venue looking to draw a crowd and keep them coming back." Based in Phoenix, Arizona (330 miles from Albuquerque) Josh Duren - Restaraunt

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring cover bands is $1,000, with prices from $200 to $3,550+. 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.

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.

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.

The cover bands for hire 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.

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.

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.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
