Photo of Limin Vybz Music Limin Vybz Music "This was our first time hiring Allan for an event and he exceeded our expectations. Great set-up and professional to deal with throughout the process. Thanks for elevating our event this year, we will reach out again in the future. Great job!" Based in Toronto, Ontario (10 miles from Vaughan) 11th September 2026 Bill Keegan - Mondelez International Photo of Dereck "Chinee" Ayum Steelpan artist Dereck "Chinee" Ayum Steelpan artist "Dereck was a joy to have at our event. He arrived early and suffered through the heat for his waiting time and 1 hour performance. His music was fun and upbeat and thoroughly enjoyed by all."

And a pleasure jamming with him. He has great timing." Based in Oshawa, Ontario (33 miles from Vaughan) Adrian (Vocalist) Photo of Ba Chinois Ba Chinois "“Kept the vibe perfect all night. Great communication and musical awareness.” — Event Client" Based in Montréal, Quebec (312 miles from Vaughan) 11th November 2025 Mr Lee - Festival Photo of Fabiandrums Fabiandrums "Hiring the singer and percussionist for our wedding's hora loca was hands down the best decision. Right from the start, the energy of the party skyrocketed. The singer is incredibly charismatic and perfectly masterclass at hyping up the crowd, and pairing that with the live beats of the percussion was on another level—it brought so much power to every song! They managed to get absolutely everyone on the dance floor, even those who usually stay seated at least grand ma and grandpa they were clapping. We highly recommend them if you want a truly unforgettable wedding."

I highly recommend him as a drummer and percussionist." Based in New York, United States (354 miles from Vaughan) Joy Askew - Songwriter

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring drummers is $400, with prices from $140 to $1,500+. Pricing depends on the style of drumming, performance length, equipment requirements and whether the drummer is performing solo or as part of an ensemble. Options range from percussive DJ sets and body percussion to traditional acoustic drum performances.

Most drummers bring their own drum kit or percussion instruments. For larger venues, microphones and additional amplification may be needed to balance the drums with other performers or a PA system. It is advisable to confirm equipment and space requirements before the event.

The drummers on Gig Heaven include drum kit players, tabla players, djembe players, cajon players and electronic drum performers. Many drummers are versatile session musicians who can perform as soloists, join an existing band or provide percussion alongside a DJ.

Many drummers specialise in performing live percussion alongside a DJ set, adding a dynamic, visual element to dance music. This combination is popular at weddings, corporate parties and club events. It is worth discussing this format with the performer when making an enquiry.

Events that commonly feature drummers include corporate events, parties, product launches, DJ sets that need live percussion, recording sessions and team-building workshops. Live drumming adds energy and visual spectacle to any event.
