5/5 from 495 reviews
Photo of Kenneth Stone Mr Sax Kenneth Stone Mr Sax "A memorable addition to our wedding Mr. Stone was a true professional from communication prior to the wedding day, to showing up to the rehearsal to the day of our wedding. Mr. Stone was timely, extremely professional and highly skilled. With my husband's family being from New Orleans, we really wanted to add the saxophone to our wedding to help bring that NOLA feel into Kansas City, MO. Mr. Stone "wow-ed" us with his ability to play a wide range of music and at length. My friends and family on both sides sept saying how cool it was to have him, we was one of the coolest additions to our wedding that our guests are still talking about how cool he was. We'd hire Mr. Stone again in a heartbeat" Based in Kansas City, Missouri 26th October 2026 Morgan Banks - Wedding Reception Photo of Groovy Fever Groovy Fever "Awesome, fun band! Sandi and her band were amazing! They were fun and engaging. Our guests were dancing and loved the song choices. The communication and concern before and after our party was greatly appreciated!" Based in Sacramento, California 23rd September 2026 Rene R - Retirement Party - Reno Photo of Private Affair Band Private Affair Band "Have you ever wondered what makes a great party? We learned quickly that it is Private Affairs. We hired this band for an upscale 70th Birthday Party, and without them, this event would have been just another party. The theme was the 70s, and not only did all the band members embrace it by dressing in 70s garb, but they also embraced the spirit of the party and created the most fun and engaging atmosphere. They are consummate professionals and wonderful human beings. Their interaction with the party-goers helped make this event fun and memorable for everyone. All evening long, our guests came up to us and said things like, "What a band", and "Who are these great musicians"? If you want to elevate your event and are looking for FUN, do not hesitate to engage Private Affairs." Based in Los Angeles, California 8th September 2026 Barb K - 70th Birthday Party Photo of Red White & Blue Red White & Blue "Attended a Red White and Blue concert in Kingman Arizona June 27, 2026. Awesome show! These guys truly sound and look like the real band. Favorite songs were many but loved Simple Man, That Smell, and of course Freebird. Sent chills up my spine. Their backup girl singers were outstanding too. Their voices came thru beautifully. I definitely recommend this band. I hope to see and hear them again in the future."

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring oldies bands is $650, with prices from $140 to $2,700+. 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 oldies bands for hire in the United States 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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.
