Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring easy listening bands is £380, with prices from £120 to £1,300+. Pricing depends on band size, set length and the style of music. Easy listening bands provide relaxed background music suited to corporate events, dinners and receptions, and range from small acoustic line-ups to fuller ensembles.

The easy listening bands for hire perform relaxed, melodic music spanning soft rock, jazz, acoustic pop, classic standards and light instrumental music. The style is designed to create a pleasant, sophisticated atmosphere without overpowering conversation.

Hiring easy listening bands is ideal for drinks receptions, corporate dinners, hotel lobbies, restaurant entertainment, garden parties and any event where background music is preferred over a high-energy performance. The relaxed, melodic style creates an elegant atmosphere without overpowering conversation.

Most easy listening bands perform for two to three hours, often in longer sets with fewer breaks than louder acts. The relaxed nature of easy listening music suits continuous background performance during meals and receptions. It is worth discussing the event schedule with the band when requesting a quote.

Most easy listening bands are smaller ensembles (duos, trios or small bands) that need relatively little performance space. This makes them well suited to venues with limited room for entertainment. It is a good idea to confirm space needs with the band based on the venue layout.
