Reviews of Cover Bands available in Charleston

5/5 from 2,830 reviews
Photo of Drew Marler Music Drew Marler Music "We began hiring Drew to play at our restaurant after seeing him play at a private party we attended years ago. With such a versatile style, his music and song selections never get old! He is always very professional and very personable with the guests! We've had other musicians play but he is undoubtedly everyone's absolute favorite entertainer. We always look forward to hearing him play!" Based in Charleston, South Carolina J. Martin - Restaurant Photo of Andrew Thielen Big Band Andrew Thielen Big Band "WE were so glad we found Andrew Thielen Big Band. They are a real band that has been together for over twenty years perfecting their music, showmanship and dazzling variety of music that kept our dance floor jammed. WE almost got swayed into one of these chain bands called Empire something where they throw together bands for one night until we figured out you cannot be a 3 piece band one week and a 12 piece band the next. WE wanted a real band where the band leader has had repeat performances for the most discriminating buyers for years. Every age, everyones taste in music and our twenty something wedding party had the time of our life. Call them now for sensational singers, instrumentalists and organization." Based in Charleston, South Carolina Aaron Hines - wedding reception Photo of Saxophonist Darryl "DEESAXPLAYER"Anderson Saxophonist Darryl "DEESAXPLAYER"Anderson "Darryl was incredible and added such a special touch to our wedding. His music set the perfect vibe and everyone loved it. He was professional, easy to work with, and truly made the night even more memorable. Highly recommend!"

They have played my annual party for three years now, and for sure be back again next year! Tim is a great guy and very accommodating to needs required to play shows. Did I mention he needs to be on the radio so everyone can enjoy his music!" Based in Rock Hill, South Carolina (161 miles from Charleston) Andy Robbins - Private House party

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.
