Acoustic Musicians in London
Book acoustic musicians in London
Acoustic music suits the parts of a wedding or party where people want to talk as well as listen. In London, acoustic musicians are booked for ceremonies, drinks receptions, garden parties and wedding breakfasts, playing familiar songs in a stripped-back style that fills a room without taking it over.
Whether your wedding is near central London, Greenwich and Richmond or further afield, the acoustic acts here cover the whole of London. Local venues include Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, Syon House at Syon Park and Royal Lancaster London, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. Other venues in the area include The Gore Hotel, Eltham Palace and Fulham Palace, and each has its own venue page further down.
Acoustic acts range from solo singer-guitarists to duos and small trios with harmonies. Repertoire usually runs from classic love songs and folk to acoustic versions of recent chart hits, so the music feels familiar without being loud.

Think about the size of the space and how many guests will be there. A single performer works well for up to around 80 guests in a ceremony room, while a duo or trio carries better outdoors or in a busy reception. Most acts bring a small, discreet PA so they can be heard without being loud.
Most acoustic act bookings fall between £350 and £1,400. A solo musician for a single set sits at the lower end; a duo or trio covering the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. The date and time of year make up the rest of the difference, so a weekday or winter date can cost less than a summer Saturday.
Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the performer you would be booking, with videos, audio, a repertoire list and reviews. Between them you can get a clear sense of the act well before the day.
The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the day. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the day in case anything needs sorting.
