Bands based close to your venue usually quote less, because travel time and any overnight costs are built into the fee. Ask what a quote covers before comparing two acts: some include PA and stage lighting, others price them separately.

Soul Bands in AustinParty bands in Austin, Texas, United States 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 Austin range from $220 to $3,650+, with the average booking at $1,100. 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 Austin, Texas, United States is $1,100 (USD). Above you will also find a budget price and high end price. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

The Decades Band
"Review from Laura C. from venue 'The Vineyard At Florence'.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So good! So good!
Just heard this band in Florence at the Vineyard! They were amazing! Her vocals were excellent and his guitar playing was incredible! The variety of songs were so familiar and it sounded so good! Would highly recommend them!"
Eric Ching Trio/Quartet
"Eric is a standout performer and well-organized band leader. Professional, kind, and adaptable, he seamlessly integrates into any musical setting. I recently had the pleasure of booking Eric for an event at a speakeasy in Oregon and he was a joy to work with. If you're seeking a reliable and versatile drummer who elevates every performance, look no further than Eric Ching."
XFactory Band
"These guys are pros for sure. They have been playing along time and it shows in their shows. The songs are really well recreated and they put on a good show."
Kelany & the All-Nighters
"Kelany was my favorite vendor to work with for my husband and I's wedding. She brought professionalism, a full heart, and an incredible voice (!!!) to our special day.
To this day, we keep getting compliments from our guests about Kelany and the band.
We gave her a list of songs from our pop/punk upbringing + some modern classics to play and the band crushed every single one, including an incredible cover of "Love Me Down" by Ludo that my unhinged husband danced to with his mom.
We knew that we wanted a band that we could truly rock out to without all the bells and whistles of your traditional wedding band. Also, they are competitively priced (aka affordable!) compared to other quotes we were getting in Austin.
Thank you so much for making our day so magical!"
Replay
"Great communication from Replay before the event. Replay was amazing during our celebration and the feedback after was - How soon can we get them back."
