Photo of Rocksmith Rocksmith "These dudes rock! And they are a lot of fun! Doing a lot of the stuff we all grew up on just takes you back and makes you want to smile! Definitely a party when these guys show up! Especially captain keystone!" Based in Asheboro, North Carolina Raymond - Party Gig Photo of Where's Eddie?! Where's Eddie?! "I was looking for a band for my Agency Christmas Party and Where's Eddie was the perfect fit! They easily fit in some Christmas tunes with their Country and Rock, and kept all of us entertained throughout the evening! So happy to book them and would book them again! I highly recommend!" Based in Greensboro, North Carolina Tim - Agency Owner - Corporate Event Photo of Al g & Friends Party Band Al g & Friends Party Band "Best show all weekend at the Blackberry Festival! We loved all the crowd participation. It was refreshing to see people encouraged to come out of their shell, love one another, and sharing God’s grace in your life." Based in Charlotte, North Carolina T.Cox - Lenoir North Carolina Blackberry Festival Photo of Timmy Lee and The Super Cool Dude Club Timmy Lee and The Super Cool Dude Club "Timmy Lee and his band are just incredible!!! They have played my annual party for three years now, and for sure be back again next year! Tim is a great guy and very accommodating to needs required to play shows. Did I mention he needs to be on the radio so everyone can enjoy his music!" Based in Rock Hill, South Carolina Andy Robbins - Private House party Photo of Raybar1mb Raybar1mb "The Flex Band is one of the top Soul and Motown acts in the southeastern United States. Led by the versatile and experienced showman and bandleader Ray Bar, the Flex Band provides a combination of your favorite 60' soul grooves, Motown classics, and modern R&B and beach hits." Based in Durham, North Carolina HVCC - Country Club Photo of Mary Jane Tribute Band Mary Jane Tribute Band "selected the Premium Sound Band to play at my 70's/80's part last year, and they were fantastic! Travis, the leader of the band, started on time, and he had his band dress the theme. It goes without saying that their sound and musicianship was second to none. The private party was filled with dancing and fun! Travis did an excellent job in music selection and instrumental composition of band. In a few weeks, I will host a 2nd annual 70's/80's party, and Travis with the Premium Sound Band will bring the funk! I can't wait to see and dance to his Rick James covers!" Based in Durham, North Carolina James Fayson - 70s 80s costume party

Frequently asked questions

Hiring party bands typically costs between $230 and $3,950+, 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.
