Acoustic Musicians in Oxfordshire
Live acoustic music for weddings and events in Oxfordshire
Acoustic music suits the parts of a wedding or party where people want to talk as well as listen. In Oxfordshire, 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.
Across Oxfordshire, acoustic acts are booked for weddings and events in and around Oxford, Banbury and Witney. Venues in the area include The Tythe Barn, Hadsham Farm and Caswell House, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Blenheim Palace, Acorn Barn and Old Luxters Barn, with details of each.
The appeal of an acoustic act is how easily it fits in. With guitars, vocals and sometimes a cajon or double bass, an acoustic line-up can play in a ceremony room, on a terrace or in a busy courtyard and still sound warm and relaxed.

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.
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.
Each act's page carries real video and audio, a repertoire list and reviews from previous clients. Watching a couple of clips tells you far more than any description can, so it's worth listening before you choose.
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.
