Acoustic Musicians in Newcastle upon Tyne
Live acoustic music for weddings and events in Newcastle upon Tyne
An acoustic act brings live music to a space where a full band would be too much. Across Newcastle upon Tyne, that means a singer and guitar for the aisle, a duo on the terrace during the drinks reception, or a trio playing through the meal, with a sound that stays warm and relaxed.
Whether your wedding is near Newcastle and Gateshead or further afield, the acoustic acts here cover the whole of Newcastle upon Tyne. Local venues include Newcastle Civic Centre, Wylam Brewery and Northside Farm, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. Further down this page are more local venues, such as The Biscuit Factory, Close House and Jesmond Dene House, with details of each.
Most acoustic musicians play a mix of songs guests will recognise, reworked in a softer style. That makes them a good fit for the parts of the day where the music should add atmosphere rather than take centre stage.

A solo singer-guitarist suits a ceremony or a small drinks reception. A duo adds harmonies and a fuller sound for a larger courtyard or dining room. A trio, often with cajon or bass, gives more energy for a garden party or a drinks reception with a lot of guests.
Prices usually start from around £350 and go up to £1,400 or so. 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. Your quote shows the full price for your date, so you can compare acts on the same basis.
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.
