Acoustic Musicians in Yorkshire & the Humber

Acoustic musicians covering the whole of Yorkshire & the Humber

Finding the right acoustic musician is easier when you can see every option in one place. This page covers all of Yorkshire & the Humber, from Harrogate, Beverley, Acomb, Leeds and Doncaster, and every act listed travels to venues across the region for drinks receptions, dinners and relaxed parties.

Across Hull & East Yorkshire, Leeds & West Yorkshire, North Yorkshire, Sheffield & South Yorkshire and York, the acoustic musicians listed here play drinks receptions, dinners and relaxed parties. Use the area links lower down if you'd like a list narrowed to one part of Yorkshire & the Humber.

Popular venues across the region include Sandburn Hall, Carlton Towers, Middlethorpe Hall, Weetwood Hall Hotel, Hooton Pagnell Hall and Danby Castle. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we can usually say which acts have played there before.

Not every acoustic musician does the same job. Within this category you'll find acoustic soloists, duos and trios playing unplugged pop, soul and folk, and knowing the feel you want for your wedding or event makes the choice much easier.

Every act's page has video and audio of the performers who would actually play at your wedding or event, a full song list and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to judge the style before you commit.

Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the event. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.

“Hi. We would like to record our appreciation to Declan Daniel for the music he played at our wedding reception last Saturday. Many of the guests commented on the quality of his playing and there is no doubt that Declan's music added a very special ingredient to our special day. Please pass on our thanks and best wishes for his musical career. Many thanks also for a very efficient service. Best wishes”

“I’d recommend Ian without hesitation. Not only is he a huge talent with a fine repertoire, he is a genuinely good guy who was friendly and communicative during the build-up to my wedding. On the day itself he went above and beyond what I’d expect from a performer by allowing my son (a beginner on guitar) to play along to one of his songs. Ian is a top talent and a top man.”

(5)

“I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for the amazing performance the band did on Saturday. Honestly, it was one of the highlights of the day and we were absolutely delighted. We couldn’t have asked for a better band - you guys were fantastic. Please let me know if you ever need a reference because we would love to recommend you guys”

(5)

“Hi De La Duo, THANK YOU!!! The day feels like a bit of a blur if I'm honest but one of my clearest memories was walking down the aisle (rather quickly oops) and hearing you playing. It was beautiful. John and I have received so many compliments about you guys. you truly were a highlight of the day! All the best, Charlotte and John x”

“Before the event Dave did everything possible to work with us and make sure that it all went without a hitch, which was much appreciated. He and the rest of his group were friendly and professional throughout, and our guests loved seeing the joy they so clearly get from what they do. We hadn’t tried jazz at our hotel before, but it went down really well and we received lots of great feedback.”

(5)

“His vast range of musical talent shone through and was picked up on by the feedback from the guests most of whom had never heard Jack play before. A special thanks to Jack also for learning a very special song for our first dance it meant a lot to us. He is so versatile in what he can play that we would not hesitate in recommending him for your special day. …”
