Reviews of Soul Bands available in Wollongong

5/5 from 488 reviews
Photo of The Chameleonz The Chameleonz "They were fantastic. Everyone at our party was so impressed with the band. Nothing was too much trouble, and they even learned some songs especially for the party." Based in Sydney, New South Wales (42 miles from Wollongong) 21st September 2026 Susan Whatman - Private Function Photo of The Graduates The Graduates "We recently hired The Graduates for our corporate event to provide jazz music during our cocktail event. Mike was super helpful easy to deal with in the lead up to the event, and the band were fantastic on the night and our guests loved the music! Highly recommended, we will definitely be using them for our next event." Based in Sydney, New South Wales (42 miles from Wollongong) 27th July 2026 Cherish - Corporate Event Photo of Slumberjacks Slumberjacks "The band members, very respectful and responsible, arrived on time and were very professional at all times. But honestly, we felt very disappointed that when contacting this band, we were specific about confirming if they played certain songs, certain artists, including rock and roll songs, which was the main concept of the party including decoration, etc. A party obviously centered on the birthday person for their 80th birthday, and the band played a selection of music that wasn’t what we requested. So, sorry for the honesty, but in that sense, we were very very disappointed. The idea was to hear the birthday person’s favorite songs, and that didn’t happen. That was the main reason we decided to invest in a band instead of going to a nightclub to listen to random music." Based in Sydney, New South Wales (42 miles from Wollongong) 14th July 2026 Loren - Birthday Photo of Motown & Beyond Motown & Beyond "Nice to hear some well-known tunes on the weekend with an energetic vibe."

I meant what I said about your amazing show – it deserves to have a subsequent life and be seen by more people. It was clever, thoughtful, of great artistic merit and performed with skill, enthusiasm and heart. Can’t ask for more than that!"

Frequently asked questions

Hiring soul bands typically costs between $290 and $6,500+, with an average of $1,600. The price depends on the number of band members, performance duration and whether the line-up includes a horn section and backing vocalists. Larger soul ensembles with brass and multiple singers typically cost more than smaller combos.

The soul bands for hire perform classic and contemporary soul music, often blending Motown, funk, R&B and disco into their sets. Many soul bands cover well-known hits from artists spanning several decades, creating a feel-good, dance-friendly setlist.

Hiring soul bands is a popular choice for weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, gala dinners and private celebrations. Soul music has broad, cross-generational appeal and is one of the most reliable genres for filling a dance floor.

The soul bands on Gig Heaven range from compact trios and quartets to larger ensembles with horn sections, backing singers and full rhythm sections. A bigger line-up delivers the powerful, rich soul sound, while smaller groups suit tighter budgets and venues.

Most soul bands are self-contained and provide their own PA system, instruments and amplification. For larger events, additional equipment may be needed. For the best experience, confirm technical details with the band before booking.

Some acts work with a fixed singer and others draw from a small pool, so it is worth asking which applies before booking. Where a specific voice matters, naming it at the enquiry stage is the only way to secure it. Acts that rotate singers will normally say so and can often send recordings of each.

A four or five-piece with a strong singer fills most function rooms, and the difference at that size is closer to weight than to energy. Larger rooms and higher guest numbers are where the extra players start to matter. Guest numbers and the room are a better guide to this than the size of the budget.

A smaller group leans on voice and rhythm, so brass-driven material is either rearranged or left out. Larger line-ups cover the catalogue much as recorded, which matters when particular songs have to be in the set. Naming those songs is the quickest way to find out which size suits.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
