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 14,046 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.

The Gentlemen - Roaming Band
"The Gentleman absolutely made our wedding day unforgettable!
We were super happy with everything — from start to finish, they created the perfect atmosphere and vibe. Their song choices were spot-on, and every performance felt personal and full of energy. So many of our guests told us how amazing the music was — it truly was the highlight of the wedding!
If you’re looking for a band that brings top-quality sound, style, and an incredible live experience, The Gentleman are it. Thank you for making our day so special!"

Hilóczki Zsuzsanna
"I highly recommend Zsuzsi for any event! We booked her to play background music for an outdoor wine-tasting event at a vineyard, and she was absolutely wonderful. She is remarkably talented and flexible musician with a lovely, elegant presentation. Even though it was an outdoor setting with unpredictable conditions, she brought all her own gear and made sure the sound was flawless. Switching between the saxophone and the flute, she created a magical athmosphere that gave our event a wonderful extra touch. Her playlist was spot on, and everyone loved it. I am already looking forward to working with her again!"
Jaka Ahacevcic Saxophone
"Jaka is an amazing saxophonist, the communication was great, he was very flexible and professional.
The repertoire of music he played was very versatile.
For me he was the highlight od the event.
Overall an awesome experience and would definitely recommend you to book."
Flamenco & Latin Fusion: Music & Dance
"We had the BEST time thanks to this talented group of musicians! I mean, the food was great too, but by far they were the stars of the evening.
I cannot say enough good things about them, from the dancer's beautiful outfit, their punctuality, their enthusiasm, their professionalism. I sent them a song "wishlist" ahead of time, and nearly all of the songs were either sung or the original versions played during their break.
The singer was sensational, he also played the cajón (percussion), then there was the beautiful flamenco dancer who also did the "palmas" (hand clapping) and ended up dancing the Sevilllnas with a group of us (we had forgotten some of the steps, so she helped us, like a teacher!), and then of course the guitarist who was absolutely brilliant, too.
Our event would not have been as special without them. Although some of the songs they sang/played came from the wishlist, others came from the musicians themselves who, understanding their audience, came up with songs that surprised and delighted us.
I am actually trying to come up with a made-up celebration to have them come back to Lutz. Paying off a credit card maybe?
Anyway, this was an unforgetable party.
Thank you, Samuel, for putting it all together so brilliantly!"
