Solo Singers in Hampshire

Wedding and party singers in Hampshire

A solo singer is one of the simplest ways to add live music to a wedding or party. In Hampshire, singers are booked for the walk down the aisle, the drinks reception, the wedding breakfast and smaller celebrations, bringing a personal touch that recorded music can't match.

Across Hampshire, solo singers are booked for weddings and events in and around Winchester, Southampton and Basingstoke. Venues in the area include Clock Barn, The Old Dairy at Hatherden Farm and Lainston House, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. The Elvetham, Kimbridge Barn and Hayling Island Sailing Club are among the other Hampshire venues listed further down, each with its own page.

A good solo singer reads the room. During a ceremony that means gentle, well-chosen songs; at a drinks reception, familiar tunes at a comfortable volume; and later in the day, a livelier set if guests want to dance.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched couples with live entertainment for their wedding day. The solo singers listed here all travel to Hampshire, 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

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.

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.

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.
