Solo Singers in Birmingham

Wedding and party singers in Birmingham

One voice can set the tone for a whole day. Across Birmingham, 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.

Birmingham has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Aston Hall and New Hall Hotel & Spa to The Grand Hotel Birmingham. Our solo singers travel to towns across the area, including Birmingham, Solihull and Sutton Coldfield, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. You'll find more Birmingham venues below, including The Bond, Birmingham Botanical Gardens and Moxhull Hall, each with its own page.

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.

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

The essentials:

  • Budget from around £250 to £900, depending on the act and the date
  • Book for the ceremony only, or for the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast
  • Popular dates go months in advance
  • Everything included is listed in your quote
  • Change your mind within 14 days and get a full refund

A singer with guitar suits a relaxed drinks reception or a ceremony in a smaller room. A singer-pianist works well where there's a piano at the venue, or for a more classic feel. Singers using backing tracks give you the sound of a full band from one performer, which suits a party or a later evening set.

Prices usually start from around £250 and go up to £900 or so. 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. 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.

Use the instant quote button on this page to see prices and availability for your date. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the day if anything needs sorting quickly.

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 Birmingham doesn't have one.

“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”
