Photo of Jay Armsworthy & Eastern Tradition Jay Armsworthy & Eastern Tradition "Fantastic! Perfect addition to a milestone party! Jay Armsworthy & Eastern Tradition were the highlight of my husband’s 50th birthday celebration! Mr. Armsworthy is a complete gentleman and was recently awarded the 2019 Maryland Traditions Heritage Award. We were equally impressed to discover Mr. Armsworthy hosts a weekly radio show, Bluegrass By the Bay. The band is the real deal! Communication and logistics for our event were seamless, and their talent, musicianship, and harmonies - a gift. Our diverse crowd didn’t want the set to end. Thanks for a great evening!!"

Frequently asked questions

The average price for roaming bands on Gig Heaven is $1,700, with rates from $210 to $4,300+. Cost varies based on the number of musicians, performance length and the route or area to be covered. Roaming bands move through a venue or event space rather than performing from a fixed stage, making them well suited to drinks receptions and outdoor occasions.

The roaming bands for hire are musicians who perform while moving through the event space rather than from a fixed stage. They mingle with guests, serenade tables and create a musical experience that brings the entertainment directly to the audience.

Popular occasions for hiring roaming bands include drinks receptions, garden parties, weddings, corporate networking events, restaurant entertainment and festivals. Roaming musicians work especially well during cocktail hours and mingling periods when guests are moving around.

Most roaming bands perform acoustically and need no amplification, cables or stage area. This makes them extremely flexible and suited to venues of any size or layout. It is a good idea to confirm the performance format with the band to ensure it works for your event space.
