Based in Dublin, Leinster Team indie Spice - Indie Spice Photo of Deep Cuts Deep Cuts "We really want to thank Adrian, Manu and the whole Deep Cuts band for making our wedding so special! We’re almost a month on from the big day, and whenever we speak to our guests, they all say the same thing: “The band was amazing!” They have an incredible repertoire of old and new classics that gets everyone on their feet and keeps the dance floor full. Beyond how talented they are musically, Adrian and Manu were an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. They’re professional, friendly, and made the whole process feel so easy. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better band to celebrate with us, and they played such a huge part in making the day unforgettable.

Frequently asked questions

Hiring soul bands typically costs between €200 and €3,600+, with an average of €1,050. 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 Ireland 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.
