Photo of The Taylor Road Band The Taylor Road Band "The Taylor Road Band played at the 13th Mutt Strutt event for Halifax Humane Society, and they were GREAT! Not only was the music fantastic, these guys are professionals. Showed up on time, respected requests from attendees, and even helped us emcee the event and made announcements. I would recommend them for your next event, large or small."

Powerhouse vocals, blues content is "spot on". Thank you for all the originals. Engage stage presence. Really enjoyed your wide vocal range.

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring drummers is $300, with prices from $100 to $1,200+. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
