Photo of Mustang - French riviera #1 wedding band Mustang - French riviera #1 wedding band "Mustang joined us for our wedding celebration and did an amazing job!! From pre-drink lounge music to entertainment during dinner and dance after, everyone was really impressed! I would really recommend them for any occasion! Thank you for making our wedding evening so much fun!" Based in Nice, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Region 16th September 2026 Stephanie & David - Wedding Photo of Shaal Sax Shaal Sax "Alex of Shaal Sax was an absolute delight to work with and have play at our wedding. We’d highly recommend! My husband and I booked Alex for our wedding just about 10 days before the big day and Alex was great at communicating, offering creative ideas, and adapting without much notice. He was quick to respond, and extremely kind both via the internet and in-person. He showed up hours in advance to make sure technology worked smoothly alongside our DJ, and he bravely played in front of our crowd of ~165 French and American guests moving between dinner tables during dessert and then around the dance floor alongside our DJ for several songs. Having him in the center of the dancing was a huge crowd pleaser. He brought the energy up from about 7/10 to 11/10! ;) everyone loved it so much and he will truly remain such a highlight of our wedding day! Awesome experience hiring Shaal Sax!" Based in La Rochelle, Nouvelle-Aquitaine 25th June 2026 Marinna Martens - Wedding Photo of Soft Power Soft Power "Yulia and her musicians gave us a beautiful performance.

They really were amazing! The music was brillant, the engagement with the audience absolutely awesome! I've never seen my friends and family have such a good time (and we've thrown a few parties in our time!). We would definitely recommend Captain Star, they are a 5 star act. Thank you doesn't really cut it, but just THANK YOU! Thank you so much Stephane for finishing off the best day of our lives with the best entertainment x Kind regards."

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 in France 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.

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.
