Music Duos in Gloucestershire

Book a music duo in Gloucestershire

A duo gives you more than a solo act without the size of a full band. In Gloucestershire, duos are booked for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, dinners and parties, adding harmonies and a fuller sound while still fitting into a small space.

Gloucestershire has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Oxleaze Barn and Kingscote Barn to Elmore Court. Our duos travel to towns across the area, including Cheltenham, Gloucester and Stroud, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. Other venues in the area include Cripps Barn, Lapstone Barn and Tortworth Court, and each has its own venue page further down.

Two musicians can do a surprising amount. An acoustic duo adds harmonies to a ceremony, a jazz duo gives a dinner a sense of occasion, and a party duo with backing tracks can fill a dance floor in a room where a full band wouldn't fit.

We've been booking wedding entertainment since 1999, and every duo on this page covers Gloucestershire. You can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

The essentials:

  • Prices usually from £450 up to £1,400
  • Many acts can cover more than one part of the day in a single booking
  • Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to enquire early
  • The quote you receive sets out exactly what's included
  • 14-day change-of-mind refund on every booking

For most receptions and dinners, yes. A duo comfortably fills a room of around 100 guests and needs only a small area to set up. For a large function room or a crowd that wants to dance all night, look for a party duo with a bigger PA, or consider a full band.

Expect to pay from around £450 up to £1,400. 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. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.

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.

FAQs

It depends on the duo. Acoustic duos play stripped-back versions of well-known songs, jazz duos play standards and lounge music, and party duos play dance-floor hits, often with backing tracks.

Many can. A lot of duos offer packages covering the ceremony, drinks reception, wedding breakfast and an evening set.

A party duo with a proper PA is, for most venues in Gloucestershire. For very large rooms, tell us the guest numbers and we'll suggest whether a duo or a bigger line-up suits better.

Not much. Around two by three metres and a nearby power socket is usually enough.

Typically £450 to £1,400, depending on the style, how long they play and the date. Your quote shows exactly what's included.

Most can, given enough notice. Mention it when you enquire.

Reviews

“Absolutely fantastic performances and sets, everyone totally loved the vibe and the amazing performers- everyone was asking who they were and how I found them. When it rained they came off the stage and performed inside the marquee creating a really intimate magical moment, and graciously did a couple of requests for us all to join in on - couldn't have asked for more or better, simply brilliant! 11/10 thanks so much”

(5)

“I honestly can't recommend these guys enough, support helpful and supportive in the lead up to everything and then when they actually started playing, amazing! Interacted with all of our guests and absolutely smashed it. The band were amazing, I promise you, you will love having these guys as part of your big day just like we did.”

(5)

“Close Harmony were amazing from the get go. They came up with great suggestions taking our tastes and preferences on board, and providing alternative suggestions which worked perfectly. They learnt our first dance as a new song and even changed some of the wording for us to fit better. Everyone of our guests commented on how great they were and our night wouldn't have been the same without them. Thank you so much, so glad we booked you”

(5)

“The duo were absolutely fantastic. They really made our wedding ceremony special and were even happy to be requested songs to prepare and perform for the day - one unusual request was for the congregation to sing a secular 'hymn' - in this case 'Stand by Me' - the duo performed it amazingly but also encouraged everyone to sing, which really lightened the atmosphere - exactly what we wanted. Our wedding guests were also really impressed - everyone kept saying how good they were.”

(5)

“"I just wanted to say a huge thanks for doing such a fantastic job for our wedding. Everyone has been telling me how much they enjoyed the music, and Nicki and I had such a great time.the dance floor was in use all night long, a tribute to your great playing and of course, your great singing"”

(5)

“Absolutely fantastic, very professional. A beautiful voice which was even better than the video. We booked them for 1 hr and to sing our first dance song. It is a memory that I will never forget. All the guests really enjoyed the music as they sang songs from all genres and did it extremely well. Very talented. We are very pleased that we booked them and could not have asked for more.”
