What a great show this band put on totally professional" Based in Colton, California (10 miles from Riverside) Victor Saldana Photo of Tabu Tabu "We hired TABU for our corporate event and they were fantastic they played all the Latin hits of Today and of course some of the standard cumbias we all grew up to. We will be hiring them again very soon." Based in Anaheim, California (31 miles from Riverside) Rios and Rios Medical Association - Medical Provider Photo of Lifetime Rocker Entertainment Services Lifetime Rocker Entertainment Services "Great band with awesome song selections. Go see them you won't regret it. Tell your friends, I have!" Based in Temecula, California (35 miles from Riverside) Nancy Spradling (Facebook fan review) Photo of Petty Party (A Tribute to Tom Petty) Petty Party (A Tribute to Tom Petty) "“Petty Party put on a fantastic performance that our community truly enjoyed. We estimated the crowd at between 3,800–4,000 attendees—our biggest turnout of the year so far—and the energy was incredible. They delivered an engaging and high-quality show that clearly resonated with the audience. We’ll definitely be keeping them in mind for future years of our Concert Series.”

They really know how to get a crowd going and having a good time.. We will most likely or hire them again next year." Based in Los Angeles, California (49 miles from Riverside) 19th September 2026 Ryann Lopez - Sierra Madre, Concert in the park Photo of Private Affair Band Private Affair Band "Have you ever wondered what makes a great party? We learned quickly that it is Private Affairs. We hired this band for an upscale 70th Birthday Party, and without them, this event would have been just another party. The theme was the 70s, and not only did all the band members embrace it by dressing in 70s garb, but they also embraced the spirit of the party and created the most fun and engaging atmosphere. They are consummate professionals and wonderful human beings. Their interaction with the party-goers helped make this event fun and memorable for everyone. All evening long, our guests came up to us and said things like, "What a band", and "Who are these great musicians"? If you want to elevate your event and are looking for FUN, do not hesitate to engage Private Affairs." Based in Los Angeles, California (49 miles from Riverside) 8th September 2026 Barb K - 70th Birthday Party

Frequently asked questions

Hiring dance bands typically costs between $240 and $3,900+, 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.

The dance bands for hire cover a wide range of popular dance music including pop, disco, funk, soul, Motown, rock and current chart hits. Most dance bands focus on well-known, uptempo songs designed to fill the dance floor at parties and celebrations.

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.

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.

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.

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.
