Singing Guitarists in Manchester: What to know before you book
What to expect
Singing guitarists in Manchester offer a compact, versatile live music solution for venues and private events. Typically performing acoustic or semi-acoustic sets, they cover classics from the 60s to today, alongside indie favourites and Manchester icons. Expect professional conduct, clear communication, and flexible set lengths – most commonly 2 × 45 minutes or 1 × 60 minutes – with tasteful background music during breaks on request. Volume can be tailored for intimate spaces or scaled up for lively crowds, making them suitable for everything from receptions to late-evening singalongs.
Suitable occasions
Singing guitarists fit a wide range of briefs across Greater Manchester and the North West:
- Weddings: Ceremony entrance/exit songs, drinks reception ambience, or early evening warm-up before a DJ or band.
- Corporate events: Networking mixers, product launches, awards dinners, and hospitality suites.
- Private parties: Birthdays, anniversaries, garden parties, engagement celebrations.
- Hospitality & venues: Bars, restaurants, hotels, member clubs, and pop-up activations.
Practical information: Pricing, equipment, and space
Most solo singer-guitarists in Manchester charge £250–£600 depending on date, performance length, and travel. Peak Saturdays or bespoke requests can reach £700–£900. Many include a compact PA system suitable for 80–120 guests, a vocal mic, guitar DI, and basic lighting. Expect PLI (Public Liability Insurance) and PAT-tested equipment as standard for professional bookings. Typical setup takes 45–60 minutes. Allow a footprint of roughly 2 × 2 metres with a nearby 13A power outlet; artists can adapt for sound limiters common in city-centre venues.
Booking considerations
To streamline booking, prepare your event timeline, guest count, and any song preferences. Discuss first-dance or aisle-walk arrangements early if it’s a wedding. Confirm load-in details, parking, and venue contacts. A simple contract and a 15–30% deposit are common. For outdoor sets, agree on shelter and power. Ask whether the performer can provide background playlists, take limited requests, or extend sets on the night if needed.
FAQ
How far in advance should I book?
Weekend dates in spring–summer fill quickly in Manchester. Aim for 3–6 months ahead; short-notice midweek bookings are often possible.
Can they perform without power?
Yes, some offer battery-powered PA for ceremonies or terraces. Confirm run-time and expected volume for your space.
Will they learn a specific song?
Most will learn 1–2 special requests with sufficient notice. Additional songs may incur a small rehearsal fee.
Do I still need a DJ?
A singer-guitarist covers live performance; many provide curated playlists between sets. For a late-night dancefloor, a DJ (or full band) remains the best option.
What about noise limits in city venues?
Professionals can manage sound around limiters using acoustic setups and careful PA control-flag any venue restrictions during booking.
