I have witnessed first-hand some of Jenna's many talents as a singer/songwriter/performer, teacher, PR and marketing specialist and an artist developer to name a few. Jenna has a highly accredited background with 2 decades of performance experience and a Summa Cum Laude (Vocal Performance Degree) from The Berklee School of Music.- João Carvalho, Owner Revolution Recording/Mastering Engineer (Rush, The Tragically Hip, Olivia Newton John, Max Webster)" Based in Toronto, Ontario Joe Carvalho - Revolution Recording Photo of Jr Hardy Music Jr Hardy Music "They played our corporate event for 350 people. They were fun, respectful, and sounded amazing! They were on time, professional, and the audience enjoyed their choice of music. The volume level was perfect.

Based in Toronto, Ontario Hanna Shrolyk - Charity evening “FROM BIG HEARTS TO THE LITTLE ONES” Photo of Samuel singer and guitar player Samuel singer and guitar player "I had the chance to meet Samuel during an evening in Rome at a venue, and his music left me speechless. You don't see talents like this around very often. Listening to him is like taking a journey through the world of blues, soul and rock n' roll from the 60s to today. We have already set a date together for a private event. He is super available and kind and has already fulfilled every request, and I can't wait to hear him again! I really recommend him to anyone who wants to make any evening something special for everyone lucky enough to witness it. Thank you Samuel! You're amazing!!"

Frequently asked questions

Hiring soul bands typically costs between $300 and $6,000+, 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 in Canada 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.
