Solo Singers in the North East

Find solo singers for your wedding or event in the North East

From Alnwick, Stockton-on-Tees, Durham and Gateshead, the North East has a huge choice of venues and a busy calendar of ceremonies, drinks receptions and dinners. The solo singers on this page cover the whole region, and many play several dates a month within it.

Our listings for the North East take in Durham, Middlesbrough, Newcastle upon Tyne and Northumberland. Each of those areas has its own page too, which you'll find in the links further down, but the acts here will travel to any of them.

Venues across the North East include Healey Barn, Wynyard Hall, Beamish Hall Hotel, The Biscuit Factory, Charlton Hall and Gisborough Hall. It's worth asking yours early about finish times and any sound limiter, as both affect what works on the night.

Across the North East you can choose from pop, soul, jazz and classical singers, many with their own guitar or backing tracks. Most will take a few requests ahead of the day, and many can learn a special song if you ask.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched acts with clients right across the country. The solo singers here all cover the North East and include travel and any amplification in the price. The instant quote button shows pricing and availability for your date in seconds.

At a glance:

  • Most solo singers cost between £250 and £900
  • Travel and any amplification are included in the price you're quoted
  • One page covering every area of the North East
  • Popular acts book up early for busy dates, so enquire soon
  • A 14-day change-of-mind refund comes with every booking

Start with the space and the guest numbers. A smaller line-up suits an intimate room or a venue with a sound limiter, while a larger act fills a ballroom or marquee. Tell us the venue and numbers and we'll suggest what tends to work.

Expect to pay from around £250 up to £900 or more for a larger line-up. The act, the date and your set times make the biggest difference. Every quote includes travel and any amplification, so nothing is added later.

Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the actual line-up you'd be booking, with videos, audio and a song list. Underneath are reviews from clients, often at venues you'll recognise.

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.

“Before the event Dave did everything possible to work with us and make sure that it all went without a hitch, which was much appreciated. He and the rest of his group were friendly and professional throughout, and our guests loved seeing the joy they so clearly get from what they do. We hadn’t tried jazz at our hotel before, but it went down really well and we received lots of great feedback.”

“5 stars for Paul Thorpe best Elvis entertainer I have ever seen. He is a very friendly and helpful guy, he is just a real gent. Do go to see him if he comes to your town. You will not be disappointed. I usually see him in Grangemouth and surrounding areas, decided to go to Peterhead prison Jailhouse Rock show. Then to Glasgow the Marriot hotel. husband enjoyed his 60th Birthday treat in our own home.”

“Jesse was a complete professional and delivered our wedding songs beautifully. We asked Jesse to learn some songs that were personal to us and he didn't disappoint. He was honest and realistic with us to ensure that it met our expectations which was really appreciated as we all know how important it is to have that perfect wedding day. Lots of our guests commented on his performance and loved the music. Would highly recommend.”

It was such a fun evening, hope you did too even if you were working!Looking forward to booking you again...just need another excuse for a party!! In the meantime maybe see you at amuse bouche.”

“Jessie was amazing from the minute we first spoke to him, so chilled and made everything stress free which is exactly what we wanted. He has the most incredible voice and his performance of our first dance was honestly unreal, we actually preferred it to the original! Even with only 30 guests at the wedding party, he still managed to fill the dance floor with the DJ set later on. We cannot thank him enough.”

“Hi. We would like to record our appreciation to Declan Daniel for the music he played at our wedding reception last Saturday. Many of the guests commented on the quality of his playing and there is no doubt that Declan's music added a very special ingredient to our special day. Please pass on our thanks and best wishes for his musical career. Many thanks also for a very efficient service. Best wishes”
