Music Duos in Durham
Book a music duo in Durham
A duo gives you more than a solo act without the size of a full band. In Durham, duos are booked for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, dinners and parties, adding harmonies and a fuller sound while still fitting into a small space.
Across Durham, duos are booked for weddings and events in and around Durham, Darlington and Bishop Auckland. Venues in the area include Beamish Hall Hotel, Lumley Castle and Durham Castle, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Hardwick Hall Hotel, Ramside Hall Hotel and Dalton Old Pump House, with details of each.
Many duos are built for flexibility, starting with a gentle acoustic set for the ceremony and drinks, then switching to a livelier set later in the day. That makes a duo one of the best-value ways to cover several parts of a wedding.

An acoustic duo, usually vocals with guitar, suits a ceremony and drinks reception. A jazz or lounge duo works well through a dinner. A party duo with backing tracks is the one to choose if you want a dance floor later, as it gives the sound of a bigger band from two performers.
Prices usually start from around £450 and go up to £1,400 or so. A single daytime set sits at the lower end, while a duo covering the ceremony, drinks, meal and an evening set 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.
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 wedding. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.
