Based in Berlin, Germany (731 miles from Tampere) 9th January 2026 Anne Schulz - Wedding in Italy Photo of Groove Recipe Groove Recipe "This band builds a bridge between pop, soul and funk from the 70's and 80's on one side, and the world of jazz on the other side. Great musicianship, fantastic arrangements and a very sophisticated sound. Highly recommended for jazz clubs and festivals!" Based in Groningen, Netherlands (855 miles from Tampere) Marc de Vries - Jazzclub Photo of Garden State, the Jersey Shore Sound Garden State, the Jersey Shore Sound "Review of Garden State band performance during the opening of the Doelum Live season 25/26 29 September 2025. Garden State delivered a convincing and heartwarming concert at Doelum Live. The combination of a tight band, strong vocals and an enthusiastic audience made this Sunday afternoon a celebration for lovers of the energetic, melodious Jersey Shore Sound. With their craftsmanship and their ability to literally get people moving, Garden State proved that they can make a stage of any size vibrate. Anyone who was not there has undoubtedly missed a lively concert afternoon."

Frequently asked questions

Hiring soul bands typically costs between €190 and €3,600+, with an average of €1,000. 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.
