Reviews of Soul Bands available in Italy

5/5 from 689 reviews
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!!" Translated from Italian Based in Rome, Latium 15th October 2026 Sofia Amoretti - Evento privato Photo of Jokebox Jokebox "For our intimate wedding of 32 guests, Jokebox Band played at our ceremony and our reception. And what can we say: They exceeded any expectations we had by far. From the heartfelt acoustics in the church, that moved everyone to tears and blended seamlessly into our ceremony to the very fast transition into the garden into the full set band that brought the vibes, everything was perfect. The repertoire was fantastic to go all afternoon, blending jazz vibes and songs for everyone to dance to. When they played narcotic as the grand finale of their set, every single one of our guests was going all in and dancing like it was midnight at around 18:30. They really brought the party to our beautiful reception. Additionally, as regards organization: They were super professional, extremely responsive and completely self-sufficient. We did not have to organize a single thing on the day of and just knew everything would work seamlessly with them. We cannot recommend them enough!" Based in Vicenza, Veneto 14th October 2026 Julia and Tobias - Private Wedding Photo of The Italian Soul & Jazz Band The Italian Soul & Jazz Band "We had Giuseppe and the band play at our ceremony, sing and play during our Cocktails then through dinner. It was BEAUTIFUL and absolutely perfect! We had requested some different songs for our ceremony - but i knew we didnt have to worry or even give any instruction to Giuseppe. They are all wonderful musicians so you can leave everything to them and just listen and enjoy. Everyone kept coming up to us saying our singer is incredible where did we find her. So we would 100% recommend Giuseppe and the band. Contact and all questions were easy to sort, responsive, flexible and made our day the most magical and memorable!"

We couldn’t have wished for a better band. We chose you specifically because you were clear with us from the start. The May initial meeting was great, and you really listened to all our wishes. The guests’ feedback was consistently positive—it was just so much fun for everyone, including us. The music selection was perfect—there was something for everyone, and you were happy to accommodate spontaneous requests. We wholeheartedly recommend you. Thanks again a thousand times, Aileen and Chris" Based in Verona, Veneto 30th September 2026 Aileen Benkart - Private Wedding Photo of Glance Up Glance Up "Wonderful I discovered them online purely by chance and was pleasantly impressed. Beyond the kindness and professionalism shown by Simone—our initial point of contact—they made our wedding anniversary unique and engaging like no other. I should mention that we have worked in the wedding catering industry for years, and never—I repeat, never—have I come across a group like this. Fantastic live music that managed to get us involved right from the very start of the evening; I am eternally grateful to you for making this special occasion even more unique."

Frequently asked questions

Hiring soul bands typically costs between €200 and €3,550+, 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 Italy 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.
