Solo Singers in Berkshire

Hire a solo singer in Berkshire

One voice can set the tone for a whole day. Across Berkshire, solo singers perform at ceremonies, receptions and private parties, often accompanying themselves on guitar or piano, and many can move from gentle background songs to a livelier set later on.

Popular wedding venues in Berkshire include Englefield House, Cantley House Hotel and Wasing Park, and our solo singers travel to weddings and events across Reading, Windsor and Newbury. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we'll help you choose an act that suits the space. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Dorney Court, The Elephant Hotel and Coworth Park, with details of each.

Solo singers come in a few different styles. Some accompany themselves on guitar, some sing at the piano, some specialise in swing and crooner songs, and others perform to backing tracks for a fuller sound.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched couples with live entertainment for their wedding day. The solo singers listed here all travel to Berkshire, and the instant quote button shows pricing and availability in a few seconds.

The essentials:

  • Prices usually from £250 up to £900
  • 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

Think about the part of the day you want covered and the kind of songs you like. For a ceremony, choose a singer whose repertoire includes the songs you want for the aisle and the signing. For a party, look for a singer with an upbeat set list and a PA big enough for the room.

Most solo singer bookings fall between £250 and £900. A single set for the ceremony sits at the lower end, while a singer covering the ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast, or an evening set, 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.

Every act's page has video and audio of the performer you would actually book, along with their repertoire and written reviews from couples who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.

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.

FAQs

Most cover the ceremony, the drinks reception and the wedding breakfast, and some also play an evening set. Many can learn a special song for the aisle or the first dance.

Many do. Some accompany themselves on guitar or piano, while others sing to backing tracks for a fuller sound. Each singer's page shows exactly how they perform.

Yes. Singer-guitarists and singers using backing tracks bring everything they need. Singer-pianists usually bring a digital piano if the venue in Berkshire doesn't have one.

Very little. A small corner of the room and a standard power socket is usually enough.

Typically £250 to £900, depending on how long they perform and the date. Your quote shows exactly what's included.

Most can, given a few weeks' notice. Mention it when you enquire and the singer will confirm.

Reviews

“Dale is a very talented musician with great ability on both bass and vocally. Dale covers all styles of music expertly and understands the role in enhancing guest experiences on board, encouraging their enjoyment in bars and dance areas. Dale’s onstage performance is always full of energy and he displays a clear passion for the music he is playing.”

“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.”

“Joe was perfect for our wedding. He played and sang beautifully both during the reception and for 3 hours during the reception dinner and after-party. He made our day even more special. My family kept him busy all night making all kinds of song requests and he played them all! Booking him again for my mum's birthday party next year.”

“Alan was fantastic, he played 3 sets with the middle one being Elton John which was fabulous. He read the crowd and knew exactly what would get everyone going. We had a mixed age range and everyone loved it. Highly recommend Alan for any party.
Thanks to the team at Hire a Band for organising everything for us.”

“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. …”

“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”
