Reviews of Dance Bands available in Minnesota, United States

5/5 from 680 reviews
Photo of The R Factor The R Factor "The absolute BEST! The R Factor was the highlight of our wedding last December. We had the largest dance floor possible at our venue, Saint Paul Hotel, and people were dancing on the carpet- The dance floor was PACKED all night. Almost a year later, we still have guests raving to us about our wedding band. They were professional, took short breaks (the shortest breaks I’ve ever seen at a wedding) and they played almost all of the songs we requested. I highly recommend R Factor for any event. Thank you for making our wedding so memorable!!!" Based in Minneapolis, Minnesota Mike & Julie - Wedding Photo of D'AYCH and The Next Level Band D'AYCH and The Next Level Band "Used these guys for my event in September of 2023. I can always tell things are going to go well when the communication is clear. We were able to get exactly what we needed for both days of our two day event. The first day we wanted classic rock and/or light rap for the festivities to get the crowd amped up. People were walking around the fest jamming while shopping/eating, which is what we wanted. The second day we needed something far more subtle while dinner was served to our sponsors and guests. D'aych and The Next Level Band brought the old school JAZZ BAND sound. Wow! We were originally going to go with 2 different bands but D'aych assured me that they could handle it all. THEY ABSOLUTELY DID. The best parts: 1. On both days they dressed for the theme of our event!! 2. They arrived EARLY and I always say EARLY is on time! 3. They were professional 4. They did exactly what they were hired to do on both days... seamlessly Definitely my go to band now and will use them at our event in 2024 as well. Thanks guys!" Based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin Bob Anderson - September 2023 Photo of Electro Retro Band Electro Retro Band "Great, Great, Great Our crowd LOVED you and I am so appreciative of how flexible you all were!! You were an amazing addition to our day and we can’t wait to have you back! Highly recommend!" Based in Wheaton, Illinois 4th November 2025 Kim Domino - Country Club 4th of July Event Photo of The Ron Smolen Big Band / Orchestra The Ron Smolen Big Band / Orchestra "Wedding October 14 2023 - University Club - Chicago, IL Hi Ron, I've been meaning to shoot you an email. Thank you guys so much, we had such a wonderful time and were so happy and impressed with the music. With everything going on, there were 2 things about the wedding that made it stand out: the food and the band. Our guests loved the music and it was everything that we could have ever wanted and more. I really meant what I said about how cool it is that you all play this music and hopefully more people my age appreciate the work that you all do. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you. We visit Chicago pretty often so we'll keep tabs on when you play and will come say hello sometime soon. Hope you have a happy Thanksgiving! -Ryan & Angela" Based in Chicago, Illinois Ryan Moorman - Private Wedding Photo of The Voices The Voices "These guys are hotter than fish grease they have a wonderful stage presence and fantastic harmonies. I would definitely book them" Based in Merrillville, Indiana 1st November 2025 Angela Reliford Photo of Sass Monkey Sass Monkey "The process of acquiring Sass Monkey for my event went pretty flawlessly. Don kept in contact with me on what to expect and it was coordinated with no concerns on my end. The band sounded great and the young gal singing had a voice that was terrific. Great experience. Thanks to the whole crew." Based in Overland Park, Kansas Susan

Frequently asked questions

Hiring dance bands typically costs between $220 and $3,950+, with an average of $1,350. The price depends on the number of musicians, set duration and the style of dance music. Dance bands vary from compact combos to large ensembles with horn sections, and the size of the line-up is the primary cost driver.

Most dance bands bring their own PA system, instruments and basic stage lighting. Some bands offer enhanced lighting packages as an optional extra. For larger venues, additional sound or lighting may be needed. It is advisable to confirm all technical requirements before booking.

Typical bookings for dance bands are two to three hours of live music, split into high-energy sets designed to keep guests on the dance floor. Short breaks between sets give the band and audience a chance to reset before the next round. It is worth discussing the event schedule with the band to plan the best format.

Common events for dance bands include weddings, birthday parties, corporate events, proms and any celebration where getting guests dancing is a priority. A live dance band brings energy and interaction that a DJ or playlist cannot match.
