5/5 from 8 reviews
Photo of Saxxberry Saxxberry "My collaboration with Saxxberry began last year, and from the very first meeting it was clear we shared the same vision for high-quality events. Our connection translated instantly into a smooth and effective working dynamic, allowing us to deliver consistent results across a wide range of productions. Together, we have performed at numerous private events, from exclusive gatherings to large-scale celebrations hosting hundreds and even thousands of guests. These experiences required not only musical skill, but also strong coordination, adaptability, and a deep understanding of audience expectations — areas where Saxxberry consistently excels. What sets Saxxberry apart is his ability to read the room, control energy, and maintain flow throughout an event. He approaches every performance with precision, professionalism, and a clear focus on the client’s goals. For future clients seeking reliability, atmosphere, and a polished musical experience, Saxxberry is a trusted and proven choice. Beyond the technical and musical aspects, Saxxberry brings a calm, solutions-oriented approach that is invaluable in high-pressure event environments. He communicates clearly, adapts quickly to last-minute changes, and understands the importance of timing, brand alignment, and guest experience. This level of professionalism makes him not only a strong performer, but also a reliable partner for event organizers, agencies, and private clients who expect smooth execution and top-tier results." Based in Oslo 6th February 2026 DJ Victor Rayo - Victor Rayo Photo of DJ-jefferysax DJ-jefferysax "We could not have been happier with Jeffrey's performance and service. He communicated well in the lead up to the event. He was punctual and set up efficiently and discreetly. His performance was fantastic and he played exactly the type of music we had discussed prior to the event. Often corporate events can be quite dry and he added some much needed atmosphere to our event. Many guests commented that they had enjoyed the music. Additionally, Jeffrey was very understanding when our start time was delayed slightly. Overall he was an absolute pleasure to work with and I hope to hire him for future events." Based in Oslo Michelle Menne - Corporate networking event Photo of Amélia Pack, Violin player Amélia Pack, Violin player "Amélia is a fantastic musician! She’s very musical, very easy-going, hard-working, easy to work with and always commited to her projects." Based in Oslo João Miguel Photo of Flamenco, World Music & more Flamenco, World Music & more "Exactly what we had requested and provided pleasant background music. Lovely Spanish acoustic music ." Based in Gothenburg, Västra Götaland County, Sweden (159 miles from Oslo) Sarah Grech - ESPC Photo of Punk-Pop Female Vocalist Punk-Pop Female Vocalist "Fantastic live performance with solo piano turns out Disney song is so interesting." Based in Gothenburg, Västra Götaland County, Sweden (159 miles from Oslo) Alicja - Frilagret Photo of Vivian Perez & Luz D’ Habana Vivian Perez & Luz D’ Habana "Luz D’Habana played two stunning sets at our wedding! The first was a stripped back lounge set on the terrace post-ceremony, the second was a full band set after dinner which had all of our guests up and dancing from the first moment until the last. The quality of the musicianship was so high, it surpassed all of our expectations. The band were incredibly easy to communicate with, and everything ran very smoothly. I highly recommend booking them if you can!" Based in Stockholm, Sweden (259 miles from Oslo) 23rd August 2026 Sam Frankl - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

The average price for world music on Gig Heaven is kr5,500, with rates from kr1,600 to kr19,500+. Cost depends on the number of musicians, performance duration and the musical tradition involved. World music spans an enormous range of styles and instrumentation, so the format and scale of the act are the main pricing factors.

Many world music acts offer drumming circles, dance workshops or music-making sessions as part of their booking. These interactive elements are popular at festivals, corporate events and school programmes. It is advisable to ask about workshop options when contacting performers.

Acts using large traditional instruments need more floor space than a standard stage plan allows, and some perform standing or moving through the room rather than from one spot. Performances that move need a route agreed with the venue rather than a stage. Giving the act the room dimensions and saying whether the performance is fixed or moving lets them advise on what fits.

The world music acts include performers from a vast range of musical traditions including African, Latin, Asian, Middle Eastern, Celtic, Caribbean, Balkan and many more. Many acts offer fusion styles that blend traditional sounds with modern genres.

Many acts perform in the language of the tradition they play, and some mix that with English-language material across a set. Where the audience is mixed, performers often introduce songs briefly so the room follows what is coming. Ask at the enquiry stage if the balance matters, as it is usually straightforward to adjust.

Hiring world music suits a wide range of events including multicultural weddings, corporate diversity events, international festivals, themed parties, cultural celebrations and educational workshops. World music brings authentic cultural experiences to events and appeals to diverse audiences.

Many world music acts specialise in the music of particular regions or cultures and can provide an authentic experience including traditional instruments, costumes and customs. To get the best results, specify the cultural tradition you are looking for when browsing or making an enquiry.

Line-ups run from a solo player to ensembles of eight or more, and the tradition usually sets the shape: some styles are built around a group of players while others centre on one or two instruments. Smaller line-ups suit ceremonies, receptions and background playing, while larger groups suit festivals and outdoor events. Supplier profiles list the sizes each act offers, and many will quote for more than one.

Most world music acts bring their own traditional instruments, which are often rare or specialist items not readily available. For workshops where participants need instruments, these are usually provided by the performer. Gig Heaven recommends confirming what is included.
