Photo of The Innocent (Denmark) The Innocent (Denmark) "We love this band! Having booked them 4 years ago for my partners 40th and getting so many comments from guests on how good they were, and how they made the party, we were delighted to have them available for my 40th this year. They did not disappoint. They have a perfect balance between cool indie and crowd pleasers which make them accessible for a party without being too corny. Book them if you have the chance!" Based in Aalborg, North Denmark, Denmark (245 miles from Kalmar) 19th January 2026 Kieran - Private Party Photo of Garden State, the Jersey Shore Sound Garden State, the Jersey Shore Sound "Review of Garden State band performance during the opening of the Doelum Live season 25/26 29 September 2025. Garden State delivered a convincing and heartwarming concert at Doelum Live. The combination of a tight band, strong vocals and an enthusiastic audience made this Sunday afternoon a celebration for lovers of the energetic, melodious Jersey Shore Sound. With their craftsmanship and their ability to literally get people moving, Garden State proved that they can make a stage of any size vibrate. Anyone who was not there has undoubtedly missed a lively concert afternoon."

Highly professional, always friendly and attentive, Maya and her bandmates guided us through our New Year’s Eve gala with vocals, saxophone, guitar, and the turntables. Charming and with a wonderful sense for the guests! Many, many thanks, and we can’t wait to have you with us again soon! :-)" Based in Düsseldorf, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany (541 miles from Kalmar) Sarah - New Year‘s Eve Gala Photo of Elvis Tribute - International Gigs Elvis Tribute - International Gigs "The best Elvis I've ever heard!

We are so grateful that we found her, because she absolutely did an amazing job! Jolina performed covers of American hit songs for several hours and was so so good. She was the perfect complement to the party - she brought energy and is truly talented. We kept receiving compliments from all of our guests because of how good she was! As a side note, outside of her performance, she was great to work with. She is professional, friendly and flexible. If I had an opportunity to hire her again, I wouldnt think twice!"

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring oldies bands is kr6,500, with prices from kr2,000 to kr28,500+. Pricing depends on band size, performance length and the range of decades covered. Oldies bands typically perform hits from the 1950s through to the 1980s and vary from compact trios to larger groups with multiple vocalists.

The repertoire is built to be recognised, so a mixed-age room usually finds common ground faster than it would with a single-genre act. Older guests get the original hits and younger ones know most of them from film and television. Where one age group dominates, say so, and the band can weight the set rather than spreading it thin.

Most oldies bands provide their own instruments, amplifiers and PA system for standard event spaces. For larger venues or outdoor events, additional sound equipment may be needed. It is worth confirming technical details before booking.

Many oldies bands can tailor their setlist to focus on a particular era if requested. Whether the event calls for 1960s Motown, 1970s disco or a broader oldies mix, most bands are flexible. It is advisable to discuss your preferences when making an enquiry.

Hiring oldies bands is ideal for birthday parties, anniversary celebrations, weddings, corporate events, retirement parties and any occasion where nostalgia and sing-along favourites will get guests on their feet. Most bands have a broad repertoire that can be tailored to the age group and tastes of the audience.

The oldies bands in Kalmar, Sweden typically cover hits from the 1950s through to the 1980s, including rock and roll, doo-wop, Motown, pop, disco and classic rock. Many bands offer a broad greatest-hits style setlist that touches on multiple decades of popular music.

Most bookings place the band after the meal and the speeches, once guests are ready to be on their feet. An earlier slot works for a daytime event or where something lighter is wanted while people arrive. The booking is normally split into two performances with a gap between, so the room can eat or move.

Most stay close to the records, since recognition is the whole point, though tempos are often lifted a little for a dance floor. Some acts modernise the backing while keeping the melody, which suits a younger crowd. Asking which approach an act takes is worth doing, as it changes the feel more than the song list does.
