Photo of The Graduates The Graduates "We recently hired The Graduates for our corporate event to provide jazz music during our cocktail event. Mike was super helpful easy to deal with in the lead up to the event, and the band were fantastic on the night and our guests loved the music! Highly recommended, we will definitely be using them for our next event."

So friendly, amazing energy and unreal talent. He stayed longer than planned because the crowd was loving it. It made the night very special. 10/10 would book again - highly recommend" Based in Sydney, New South Wales (72 miles from Cessnock) 22nd February 2026 Beck Robertson - Private Birthday Photo of Ricardo Steyer Choro Ensemble Ricardo Steyer Choro Ensemble "Ricardo and his ensemble played at our wedding reception. So easy to communicate, plan and work with. We were so happy with their performance and made our wedding extra special! All of our guests commented on the music and that it set the perfect atmosphere for cocktail hour and during dinner. We will definitely be celebrating their part of our wedding for years to come! 10/10 recommend."

Based in Sydney, New South Wales (72 miles from Cessnock) Chad - 50th Birthday Photo of House of Monkeys House of Monkeys "Thanks so much for being part of making [POWER UP] so stunning. I meant what I said about your amazing show – it deserves to have a subsequent life and be seen by more people. It was clever, thoughtful, of great artistic merit and performed with skill, enthusiasm and heart. Can’t ask for more than that!" Based in Sydney, New South Wales (72 miles from Cessnock) Craig Donarski - POWER UP Festival at White Bay Power Station Photo of Unbelievable Wedding Big Band/Orchestra Unbelievable Wedding Big Band/Orchestra "I have been meaning to message you directly also to thank you. What you produced the night of our wedding was nothing short of magical - and I do not say this lightly. I am very happy to hear the band enjoyed the evening - I think their enjoyment and energy showed through their music. The feedback we have had from guests is overwhelming, particularly that the band and the singer (I don't remember his name) was the best they have ever heard at a wedding. You guys nailed the performance. I am so happy that we decided to do a live version, you could not have gotten the same energy and vibe with just a recording / original version. Your two sets were also perfect. There were a few times that we all stopped in the marquee to listen and appreciate the music, particularly My Way - I remember looking around and quite a few people were singing along! I think another sign of a success of a wedding is the number of people on the dance floor, and there was not an empty space during the second set. The amount of people of all ages dancing was a true highlight for me as we wanted this to be a wedding that everyone would enjoy - not just us."

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring jazz bands is $950, with prices from $260 to $3,650+. The main cost factors are the number of musicians in the band, performance duration and the style of jazz. Jazz groups range from duos and trios to large swing orchestras, and line-up size has the biggest impact on price.

The jazz bands for hire cover a wide range of styles including swing, bossa nova, gypsy jazz, smooth jazz, bebop and New Orleans-style jazz. Some groups also perform jazz-influenced pop or Rat Pack classics. To get the best results, listen to audio samples on each band's profile to find the right style for your event.

Hiring jazz bands is a versatile choice for many types of events. They are especially popular for wedding receptions, cocktail hours, corporate functions, private parties and gala dinners. Jazz works well as background music during dining or drinks, and can also be the featured entertainment where a more sophisticated atmosphere is desired.

On Gig Heaven, jazz bands are available in a variety of sizes, from duos and trios up to full big band ensembles of 15 or more musicians. A smaller group such as a trio or quartet is ideal for intimate settings and lower budgets, while a larger ensemble can fill bigger venues with a richer, more dynamic sound.

Most jazz bands are self-contained and bring their own amplification for smaller to mid-sized venues. Acoustic jazz groups may not need any amplification at all for intimate settings. For larger venues, additional PA equipment may be required. It is worth discussing sound requirements with the band before booking.

Many jazz bands are skilled at adjusting their volume and energy to suit different parts of an event. They can provide subtle background music during dinner and then shift to a more upbeat, danceable set for the evening party. It is a good idea to discuss the event flow with the band so they can plan their sets accordingly.
