Soul Bands in WollongongParty bands in Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia play popular music across several decades, from Motown and classic rock to current chart hits, adjusting the setlist and energy to suit the room. Also called function bands, these acts usually run to 3 to 6 musicians and are booked for weddings, birthdays, corporate functions and private parties.
Set structure varies more than most people expect. A typical evening booking is two 45-minute sets with a break, and many bands supply a DJ playlist to cover the gap so the music never stops. Confirm how early the act needs access for setup, whether the venue has a sound limiter, and whether the band will learn a specific song for a first dance.
Rates for function bands in Wollongong range from $320 to $6,000+, with the average booking at $1,600. Band size is the biggest factor: a three-piece costs less than a six-piece with brass or a second vocalist. Performance length, travel distance and whether the act supplies its own PA and lighting all move the figure.
The average price for Party Bands available in Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia is $1,600 (AUD). Above you will also find a budget price and high end price. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

The Chameleonz
"They were fantastic. Everyone at our party was so impressed with the band. Nothing was too much trouble, and they even learned some songs especially for the party."
The Covers Syndicate
"We had a DJ organised for my sons engagement party who pulled out on the morning of the party. Julian happened to be free and came and helped us out at short notice. There was torrential rain and ridiculous weather, he didn't hesitate to come, saving us a great deal of stress. Everyone had an absolute ball, Julian and his wife put on a wonderful night for us, they are both lovely people. The music was perfect for our variety of guests. They certainly know how to read a crowd for music and make your night an awesome event. We were so lucky to have found them."

As I said at the event please don't hesitate to use us as a reference for any future clients.
Thanks again for helping to create such a memorable event!"
