Live music sets the tone for any event. The right act transforms a reception, dinner or party from ordinary to memorable, giving guests something to talk about long after the night ends. With 14,171 musicians, bands, DJs and singers listed across dozens of specialist categories, finding the right fit starts with knowing what kind of sound you are after.
For weddings and private parties, wedding bands, cover bands and party bands remain the most popular choices, performing crowd-pleasing setlists that keep dance floors full. If you want something more specific, categories like jazz bands, soul bands and funk bands each bring a distinct energy. Rock fans can explore indie bands or rock bands, while country bands suit rustic and outdoor events. Those planning themed evenings might look at swing bands or decade-specific acts from the 1920s right through to the modern era.
Solo performers offer flexibility and are often ideal for ceremonies, drinks receptions and more intimate settings. Guitarists, pianists, harpists and saxophone players are among the most in-demand solo acts. Singing guitarists combine vocals with acoustic accompaniment for a full sound without a full band. Wedding singers and wedding musicians specialise in ceremony and reception performances, while string quartets and classical ensembles provide an elegant backdrop. Violinists and cellists also work well as featured performers during the meal or reception.
A skilled DJ can read a room and adapt on the fly. Wedding DJs and event DJs handle everything from background music to late-night sets, often providing their own sound and lighting equipment. For something different, the sax and DJ format pairs a live instrumentalist with a DJ for a modern, high-energy combination. Vocal groups are another strong option: a cappella groups, gospel groups and choirs bring a rich, layered sound that works particularly well for ceremonies and corporate events.
Tribute acts give your event a ready-made theme. Tribute bands cover everything from ABBA and Queen to Elvis and the Beatles, with acts that recreate the look and sound of the originals. For cultural events, the world music categories include Indian and Bollywood entertainment, Latin, salsa and mariachi, Irish and Scottish entertainment, Spanish and flamenco, and many more regional styles.
Rates vary widely depending on the type of act, group size and event requirements. Solo musicians and DJs generally sit at the lower end of the price range, starting from $110. Full bands, large ensembles and specialist tribute acts typically cost more. The average rate across all musical act categories is $450, with prices reaching $1,700+ for premium acts or extended performance packages.

"Christine sang a requested song for my wedding ceremony . I had asked her after seeing her contribute samples on social media.
It was heartfelt and added personal touches that reflected our story.
At short notice she also contributed to our day 2 event in a local oub and added great value to our special occassion.
We wanted something to add a variety to a strong trad flavour we had from a strong musical family.
Highly recommend Christine for an easy going , personap touch especially if your someone that likes to request sprcific song choices in a acoustic style with female vocals.

Material Madonna
"Hayley was fantastic! Everyone loved her performance of Madonna. She has a great voice and is. a true professional."
The Wanderers
"Highly recommended! We hired The Wanderers for a dual birthday bash at our home, and they were absolutely the hit of the party. They have an extensive song catalogue to choose from, played the songs we wanted, sounded fantastic, are fun people and even invited our daughter, who sings in a band, to join them as lead singer for a song, which made the night even more special for us. They had the entire crowd engaged, whether they were dancing, clapping along, or just enjoying the music. We heard so many compliments from our guests about the band. Just as importantly, they were incredibly easy to work with, flexible, and accommodating of everything we needed. Incredible musicians and incredible people. We couldn’t have been happier with them and would hire them again in a heartbeat."
Ben Faze | DJ & Sax | Event- & Wedding-DJ
"This review is for everyone who's looking to book a DJ and has no idea who to choose: BOOK THIS DJ!!!! Ben played at our wedding and absolutely delivered. All our guests were thrilled and kept telling us what an amazing party it was. Even the staff asked where the DJ was from.
All the communication was relaxed and friendly, and even last-minute arrangements were no problem. What really won us over were the incredibly smooth transitions between the songs. Ben was always close to the DJ booth and easy for guests to approach at any time (for song requests). He has a first-class feel for the mood on the dance floor and knows exactly which songs to play when – so the dance floor was never empty.
Thank you, Ben, for making our party so unique!"

"This was a small event that our company hosted at an industry conference. Iustin was hired to provide background music for the "party" portion of our event. Iustin was easy to work with, both responsive and collaborative. His talents added a lovely aspect to our small event."
DJ Robinho
"Robin accompanied us for two days (Get Together + wedding) and far exceeded our expectations. There could not have been a better DJ for us. The atmosphere was excellent from start to finish, and Robin managed to keep our guests and ourselves continuously (on both days) on the dance floor in the best and most exuberant mood. So many guests (rightly) spoke to us about our great DJ!!
And already in advance Robin took so much time to understand what ideas we have, and he also always contributed his own ideas! That's exactly what we needed! Robin is also very likeable! What more could one want? Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!"
