SUCH TALENTED PROFESSIONALS!" Based in Hudson Valley, New York ATTORNEY PAMELA GABIGER, POUGHKEEPSIE, NEW YORK - OUR FAMILY HIRED TALENTED BOSCO FOR OUR MOTHER'S 89TH BIRTHDAY PARTY! SHE LOVES HIS MUSIC AND LOVES TO DANCE! Photo of John Anthony Ferrer John Anthony Ferrer "I have hired John Anthony Ferrer to entertain my sorority reunion guests at the Bean Runner Cafe. Is amazing guitar playing as well as classic songs and popular pop tunes. John's hand the guitar really comes alive as well as the songs he plays. John is a real Rock Star, playing tunes from the Jazz era and then switching to the Pop songs of the last few decades. Then playing Blues before going into some romantic Bossa Nova. I also hired him to host and play guitar for 2022 New York Miss Teen pageant contestants. It wasn't long before he had the beautiful young ladies dancing and singing to the songs he played. A highlight to their busy schedule. To sum it up, John Anthony Ferrer's guitar wizardry will amaze you." Based in Peekskill, New York Miss Elizabeth McCorvey - The Family Resource Center 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."

Our visitors were on the dance floor all night! And in addition to all the great feedback we received on social media, the band was punctual and great communicators, very easy to work with. We look forward to having them back again and again!" Based in Manhattan, New York 25th August 2026 Sharon Medina - Queens Night Market

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring R&B bands is $1,050, with prices from $190 to $4,000+. The main pricing factors are the number of musicians, performance duration and whether the band includes horn players and backing vocalists. Larger R&B line-ups with brass sections and multiple singers typically cost more than stripped-back combos.

The R&B bands perform rhythm and blues, neo-soul, contemporary R&B and classic soul music. Many bands cover hits from artists spanning several decades, from Motown through to modern R&B, creating a smooth and groovy setlist.

Many clients book R&B bands for weddings, corporate parties, birthday celebrations, gala dinners and private functions. R&B music creates a sophisticated yet soulful atmosphere that works for both relaxed dining and energetic dancing.

The R&B bands on Gig Heaven range from small three or four-piece groups to larger ensembles with backing singers and horn sections. A bigger line-up delivers a richer, fuller sound. Many bands offer flexible sizing to suit different events and budgets.

Most R&B bands are self-contained and provide their own PA system, instruments and amplification. For larger events, additional equipment may be required. Gig Heaven recommends confirming technical requirements with the band before booking.
