What Kind of Events Do the Italy Soul Bands Perform At?
Each Italy soul band on FixTheMusic has years of professional experience performing at all kind of events, including destination weddings, corporate events, international conventions and product launches.
Our soul bands are in particularly high demand to entertain at wedding receptions in Italy.
About Our Carefully Curated Selection of Soul Bands for Hire in Italy
FixTheMusic is run by a team of musicians who have hand-picked each band and invited them to join our roster of talent. We have curated Italy's finest selection of soul bands and made it simple and secure for you to hire a soul band or Motown band for your wedding or private event in Italy.
Our groups are composed of some of Italy's most in-demand soul singers (both male and female). They have appeared on live national television (including singers who have won national singing competitions), tour Europe with international bands and perform on stage at some of Italy's most popular musicals.
Some of the singers in our soul bands are American citizens – which means you get an authentic soul accent during the performance.
How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Soul Band in Italy?
Soul bands tend to be more expensive than regular covers bands. This is because a soul band usually consists of more musicians and instrumentalists in order to create the authentic soul and funk sound.
Most songs within the soul and funk band repertoire demand instruments such as a trumpet, saxophone and trombone.
You would probably want to book a band with two or more singers. Having at least one male and one female soul singer in the band allows the soul band to perform a much wider range of repertoire and songs.
This means that the soul band you hire could consist of 6 or more musicians and singers.
The average cost of hiring an Italy soul band is €3,150. Some bands will be much cheaper (e.g. if you don't book a horn section and only choose one singer), and other soul bands charge more than this depending on the size of band and their experience.

Reviews from local events in Italy
“Thank you so much, you guys were amazing! Even better than I was expecting. Sorry I didn’t come and chat on the night, I think I was having too much fun and enjoying the music too much! Thank you for playing our first dance and chosen songs for the ceremony, they were great! Grazie Mille, Hannah and Tom.”
Booked The Somethings for a wedding at Borgo Bucciano, San Miniato, Pisa, Italy
“We honestly couldn't have asked for a better band. From the planning stages, Sam was fantastic to work with—responsive, accommodating, collaborative, and genuinely enthusiastic about helping create exactly the atmosphere we wanted. What impressed us most was their willingness to make our wedding uniquely ours. They learned multiple songs especially for us that weren't even part of their normal repertoire, including our first dance. Hearing them perform it live was one of the most emotional moments of the entire day, and we're not sure we'll ever be able to hear that song again without thinking of their incredible performance. On top of that, they were unbelievably flexible with our venue setup. Rather than simply performing in one place, they generously performed across two separate locations, requiring them to pack down, move, and completely reset all of their equipment just so our vision could come to life seamlessly. They made what could have been a logistical headache look completely effortless. Sam, Flip and Marina's talent and energy were exceptional, creating the perfect soundtrack to our cocktail hour and first dance and leaving such a lasting impression on us and our guests. Thank you for helping us create a memory that we will treasure forever.”
“Amazing!! Professional and full of energy! They alternated different musical genres with great skill! Great musicians and nice people! I highly recommend them.”
“We absolutely loved the band! Amazing musicians and super nice and friendly people - open to our wishes for the songs. We can highly recommend them! Thank you for making our wedding super special ♥️”
Booked Dolce Beats for a wedding at Tenuta La Presa, Caprino Veronese, Italy
“Hi guys, We are currently on our honeymoon and we are still reliving all the moments from the wedding day. It was perfect in every way, better than we could ever have dreamed of, and that was also thanks to you! Your music was perfect for the welcome dinner and all of our guests were really positive about you. So the biggest thank you for your good vibes and great work! ❤️ With warm regards, Michiel & Roxy.”
“These guys gave us the BEST evening at our wedding, everyone loved them. People still comment to us a year later (sorry for the late review!!) how much fun they had because of the band and how they’d never danced for so long at a wedding. They were even kind enough to let our friend join them on bass for a few songs which was a lovely memory. Grazie per tutti guys, we loved it ❤️”
Booked Italian Soul Machine for a wedding at Pontremoli, Podere Conti in Italy
“Hi all! Thank you so much for an amazing performance on Saturday, we had such a blast and you were amazing!!! 🥰🥰🥰”
“Spectacular! The band is spectacular, good music, good musicians. We requested a special song for the guests of honour and the band promptly made themselves available to play the music we would sing. Thank you. I highly recommend them!”
Booked Italian Soul Machine for a wedding at Castello di Monterone in Perugia, Italy
“We booked The Night Shift for our wedding in Tuscany and they were wonderful. David was easy to get in contact with and made the whole process very easy. Everyone thought they were fantastic, they played for our ceremony, aperitivo, after dinner, and we had a DJ for late into the night. The choice of music was perfect for us and everyone was up dancing. Thank you for helping to make our day so special.”
“We had the best time with The Somethings!! They played our ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception. The music of course was fantastic and my husband was especially blown away by their acoustic version of "Simple Man" they learned for his dance with his mom. The entire band is so talented and kept the energy going with our small group of 22. We travelled from out of the country for our wedding but didn't need to worry about anything. The band was so easygoing, great to communicate with beforehand, showed up early and even danced to Spice Girls with us on their way out! You will not be disappointed with this band!! Thank you! Thank you! Please let us know if you're ever in Florida!”
“The BEST! Videos online do not do this band justice, they sound incredible live! Stefano and the band are incredibly professional, easy to deal with and lovely people! We had a great choice of songs, plus they learned a few of our especially chosen songs too! Stefano even called the venue to discuss the best position to play from at different parts of the day; he did this without us asking him to and we appreciated it so much. This band are incredible, great value and made our wedding so special!”
Booked Italian Soul Machine for a wedding at Masseria Fulcignano in Galatone, Italy
“Soul Drive were outstanding! Her voice is out of this world and the band are all such amazing musicians. They are definitely the best band in Italy! Even the owner of our wedding location came to thank us for booking this band - he absolutely loved it!”
