Solo Singers in Lancaster

Wedding and party singers in Lancaster

A solo singer is one of the simplest ways to add live music to a wedding or party. In Lancaster, 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 Lancaster, solo singers are booked for weddings and events in and around Lancaster, Morecambe and Carnforth. Venues in the area include Ashton Memorial, Williamson Park, Forrest Hills and The Out Barn, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Wennington Hall, Town Head Estate and Lancaster House Hotel, with details of each.

The right singer depends on the feel you want. A singer-guitarist gives a relaxed, acoustic sound; a singer-pianist feels more classic; a crooner brings the swing era into the room; and a singer with backing tracks can sound like a full band.

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

Each act's page carries real video and audio, a repertoire list and reviews from previous clients. Watching a couple of clips tells you far more than any description can, so it's worth listening before you choose.

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.

“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”

“We booked Marcus for our wedding reception at the beginning of August. I would thoroughly recommend him for any similar events. Communication prior was prompt & courteous, insurances etc provided for the venue without any hassle. Most importantly on the day itself he was professional, and all of the guests very much enjoyed his performances. Thank you Marcus for your involvement in our special day”

“We thought Ian Was amazing! All our guests said how brilliant his voice was and how much they enjoyed his take on classic songs. He was very easy to contact when we were planning everything and even agreed to sing a few songs in memory of my late Mum and Dad. We booked him immediately after hearing him on an agency web site! Thanks for being a part of our special day Ian.”
