Reviews of Party Bands available in Connecticut

5/5 from 2,602 reviews
Photo of Corey Rieman and The Dilemma Band Corey Rieman and The Dilemma Band "How do I get across how good this band is. Everyone is so talented. And the lead singer has a talent and a charisma that is unique, real and wholly impressive. His voice is so genuine and so pleasantly different. Lead guitar dude rips. Just absolutely rips. Rhythm section crushed it at full groove level. Drummer is crisp and on it , bass is always on point. The woman on tambourine added such a nice flavor. Hired for an outside town event. Everyone loved the band. Everybody. It’s a no brainer" Based in Hartford, Connecticut David Sieling - Town Employee Photo of Exit 68 Exit 68 "Loved this band. They play a wide variety of songs from all my favorite bands throughout my life. They were a fun group and super easy to work with. They even played a curated list of music while they were on break. I would highly recommend them. Super nice folks."

Don Minott & The High Voltage Band have performed at The Stomping Ground multiple times, and have never ceased to please the audience.

Fun to be around. 10/10 recommended" Based in Plainville, Connecticut Ellie McManus - Party Photo of Kt Lay Kt Lay "We hired Kt for our wedding and they did not disappoint. They performed before the ceremony and during cocktail hour. So many people came up to us saying how much they enjoyed the music. Would definitely hire again!" Based in Manchester, Connecticut Lindsey Dunphy - Wedding Photo of Le'Mixx Band Le'Mixx Band "Reviewed on: 12/28/2024 Le'Mixx is an eclectic bunch of talented musicians that exceeded our expectations. We didn't want a band that would perform the go-to tracks of the wedding circuit. We wanted a seasoned band to perform live music in genres ranging from Funk to R&B. Their band showcased tunes with woodwind & brass instruments and live vocals from their lead singer and all performers. The band informed us of all their necessities in advance and arrived early. The band also provided all the necessary equipment, like microphones and speakers. Our young and wise guests found themselves all on the dance floor from the energy Le'Mixx created." Based in Hamden, Connecticut Alexis P. - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

Hiring party bands typically costs between $240 and $3,750+, with an average of $1,150. The price is driven primarily by the number of band members, performance duration and whether the act includes extras such as DJ sets between live music, lighting or staging. Party bands range from lean four-piece outfits to large ensembles with horn sections and backing vocalists.

The party bands for hire play a broad mix of crowd-pleasing music including pop, rock, soul, funk, disco, Motown, hip hop and current chart hits. The focus is on well-known, danceable songs that appeal to a wide audience and keep the party atmosphere going.

Hiring party bands is one of the most popular entertainment choices for weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, festivals and private celebrations. A live party band brings energy, interaction and showmanship that take any event beyond what a DJ or playlist can deliver.

A typical party band booking covers two to three hours, usually divided into two or three sets with short breaks. Larger party bands with bigger line-ups often deliver a more high-energy show with audience interaction between songs. It is worth discussing the event timeline with the band to agree on the best format.

The party bands on Gig Heaven range from compact three or four-piece groups to larger ensembles with horn sections, backing singers and additional musicians. A bigger line-up creates a more powerful sound for large venues and events. Many bands offer flexible line-up options to suit different budgets.

Most party bands are self-contained and provide their own PA system, instruments, stage lighting and DJ equipment for use between sets. For very large venues or outdoor stages, additional sound and lighting may be required. It is a good idea to confirm all technical details before booking.
