Photo of N.S.G. / e & friends N.S.G. / e & friends "A great trio with an exceptional sound at a great and comfortable volume. Easy jazz and awesome dance tunes as well." Based in Jacksonville, Florida 21st March 2026 Owner - Shantells Photo of Aaron On Sax Aaron On Sax "On July 19, 2025, we were blessed by "Aaron on Sax" at the Jacaranda Country Club in Plantation, Florida. Aaron drove from Tallahassee, Florida to South Florida in order to perform for our father's 90th birthday celebration. Aaron is affordable, professional, willing to travel, easy to work with and has been blessed by God with a talent for playing various saxophones. Aaron's performance was truly phenomenal. He performed from 11 AM - 3 PM with minimal breaks. Our father and guests' enjoyed him and the wide selection of music immensely. Looking forward to hiring Aaron for future events and sharing his name with anyone who is searching for a saxophonist who plays the entire event. Aaron, We pray God continues to bless you with health and strength to continue serving as a saxophonist.

Time and time again clients call to rebook the band, and we are only too happy to oblige.

Frequently asked questions

Hiring soul bands typically costs between $240 and $4,500+, with an average of $1,250. 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.
