A guide to booking

Hire Musical Acts

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 14,188 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.

Bands for Every Style

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 Musicians and Singers

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.

DJs and Vocal Groups

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 and World Music

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.

Pricing for Live Music

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. Request quotes from several acts to compare options for your budget.

Photo of Tim Plays Tunes Tim Plays Tunes "Tim was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Played a great mixture of songs to accommodate all ages. Would highly recommend for any function." Based in Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia 1st October 2026 Cheryl - Birthday Party Photo of The Serenades The Serenades "It was a great pleasure to collaborate with this band for a wedding! Talented, professional, friendly musicians, with incredible energy and especially a great singer! They managed to create an amazing atmosphere and get the newlyweds and their guests dancing and enjoying themselves fully. A team that listens, pleasant and perfectly organized, with whom collaboration was smooth from start to finish. I recommend them without hesitation and hope to have the opportunity to work with them again very soon on another wedding." Translated from French Based in Nice, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Region, France 6th October 2026 ELODIE - Wedding Planner Photo of The Supersonics The Supersonics "We chose this band for our wedding and we couldn't have made a better choice. Unfortunately, my husband and I didn't enjoy their performance much during the aperitif because we were busy greeting guests and taking photos, but during dinner they were simply extraordinary. Despite the delays that accumulated throughout the day, they managed everything with professionalism, energy and great engagement. We received so many compliments from the guests and, honestly, we would like to relive our wedding just to be able to listen to them even more! Their talent definitely exceeds expectations: the videos and content on social media don't fully give an idea of how talented, engaging and capable they are of creating a unique atmosphere. Beyond the musical quality, we really appreciated their availability, flexibility and professionalism during the entire organization. A huge thank you to the whole band for helping make our day even more special. We recommend them without hesitation to anyone organizing a wedding or an important event. Hopefully we'll see you again soon... maybe to celebrate our tenth wedding anniversary!" Translated from Italian Based in Nice, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Region, France 8th October 2026 Valeria Mazzotta - Wedding Photo of Sonalisa Mishra Productions Sonalisa Mishra Productions "We had the absolute pleasure of being a part of birthday event and had Sonalisa and Steve perform for this event. They were just fantastic and their beautiful voices created such a fun and lovely atmosphere for everyone. Their song selection for the event was perfect and we throughly enjoyed the evening. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for talented professional performers. They’ll make an event memorable" Based in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia 8th October 2026 Glavina Dsouza - Private party Photo of Samuel singer and guitar player Samuel singer and guitar player "I had the chance to meet Samuel during an evening in Rome at a venue, and his music left me speechless. You don't see talents like this around very often. Listening to him is like taking a journey through the world of blues, soul and rock n' roll from the 60s to today. We have already set a date together for a private event. He is super available and kind and has already fulfilled every request, and I can't wait to hear him again! I really recommend him to anyone who wants to make any evening something special for everyone lucky enough to witness it. Thank you Samuel! You're amazing!!" Translated from Italian Based in Rome, Latium, Italy 15th October 2026 Sofia Amoretti - Evento privato Photo of MAC Daddy Entertainment MAC Daddy Entertainment "Brian was a great DJ and very nice very professional keep my guest very , I would hire him again" Based in Waupun, Wisconsin, United States 19th October 2026 Jax C. - Birthday Party (Adult)
