Based in Detroit, Michigan 18th March 2026 Wayne D. - The Ashley Lynn Experience Photo of Denise Davis and the Motor City Sensations Denise Davis and the Motor City Sensations "Annette Wernert recommends Denise Davis and the Motor City Sensations. We had a great time at your concert at Eastpointe City Hall! You are all very talented and gifted performers. Thank you for a wonderful evening!" Based in Detroit, Michigan Annette Wernert Photo of Slave Slave "Slave was booked with Cameo and Ohio Players. Slave was one of the best bands I’ve ever heard. Please consider booking them. You won’t regret hiring them." Based in South Holland, Illinois Horseshoe Hammond - Concert Photo of Midnight Shakers Midnight Shakers "We enjoyed every set we could be a part of! Loved the music selection and your interaction with your audiences! The best music / sound, we went out of our way to catch their sets each night!!!" Based in Barrie, Ontario, Canada 3rd October 2026 Lori Mathieu Photo of The Kensie Jazz and Dance Band The Kensie Jazz and Dance Band "Perfect Jazz Band! Secured The Kensie Jazz Band for our 30th Anniversary corporate event. From start to finish they were perfect. Perfect background music while guests are engaging in the social circuit. Perfect background music while being seated and served for dinner. The band can adjust their sound level to your preference. They play a range of music. A live band is a classy touch and adds ambience to any event rather than a standard DJ. It is a completely different vibe. Nice group of people! Good pricing as well. Thank you!" Based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jenifer F. - Cocktail and Dinner Music Photo of the Pepper Shakers the Pepper Shakers "My go-to 3-piece cover band in the Toronto area. I have had the pleasure of working with Hank and the guys on several occasions dating back to 2014 - the Pepper Shakers never disappoint."

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring oldies bands is $650, with prices from $190 to $2,950+. 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 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.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
