Singing pianists in Glasgow
What to expect
Experienced, versatile performers: A singing pianist typically covers well-known pop, soul, jazz standards and modern chart songs, adapted for voice and piano. Sets are usually 2×45 or 3×40 minutes with short breaks. Volume can be kept low for background ambience at hotels and restaurants, or increased for livelier private parties. Many performers can learn one or two special requests—useful for first dances or corporate walk-on music. In Glasgow, artists are used to working in compact city venues and can tailor their footprint and volume to suit.
Suitable occasions
Broad event fit across the city: Singing pianists suit wedding ceremonies and receptions (subtle aisle music, cocktail hour, and early-evening sets), corporate receptions and awards nights in central hotels, restaurant residencies, and private celebrations in townhouses or function rooms. For larger evenings in the Merchant City or West End, some artists add light percussion or tracks to build energy without needing a full band.
Practicalities
Clear, Glasgow-specific logistics: Fees vary with date, set length, and equipment. As estimates: £250–£450 for a short off-peak booking; £400–£750 for standard weekend events; £800+ for premium dates, extended hours, or travel outside Greater Glasgow. If no acoustic piano is on site, most artists bring a professional keyboard, stand, and small PA. Expect a 2×13-amp power requirement and around 3×2 metres of space. Setup typically takes 45–60 minutes, with 30–45 minutes to pack down. Many venues use sound limiters; performers can provide limiter-friendly setups—flag this during booking. Public Liability Insurance and PAT-tested equipment are standard; ask for documentation if your venue requires it.
Booking considerations
Straightforward planning and communication: Popular Saturdays book months ahead, particularly spring and autumn. Provide the venue address, room layout, access and parking details (loading on busy streets like Sauchiehall Street may need timed access), and your outline schedule. Confirm whether an in-house piano is playable and tuned; if not, the artist will use their keyboard. Agree on set times, attire, break music, overtime rates, and cancellation terms. Share must-play and do-not-play lists early, and submit any special song requests at least two weeks before the date.
FAQ
Can the pianist use a venue’s acoustic piano?
Yes, if it is in tune and in good working order. Otherwise, a portable keyboard is safer and more consistent.
How loud is a singing pianist compared with a band?
Significantly quieter and easier to manage with sound limiters. Volume is adjustable for background or more upbeat sets.
Do they provide all equipment?
Usually yes: keyboard, microphone, and compact PA. You provide a standard power supply, suitable space, and access.
What affects the price most?
Date (weekends and peak season), total time on site, travel/parking, special requests, and any late finishes or overtime.
How far in advance should we book?
For Saturdays, 3–6 months is sensible; for weekday or off-peak dates, 4–8 weeks often works.
