Solo Singers in Northamptonshire

Hire a solo singer in Northamptonshire

A solo singer is one of the simplest ways to add live music to a wedding or party. In Northamptonshire, 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.

Northamptonshire has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Home Farm Events and Fawsley Hall to Park Farm, Daventry. Our solo singers travel to towns across the area, including Northampton and Kettering, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Kelmarsh Hall & Gardens, Delapre Abbey and Dodmoor House, with details of each.

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.

Hireaband has been booking live entertainment for weddings since 1999. Every solo singer listed here travels to Northamptonshire as standard, and the instant quote button on this page shows pricing and availability for your date.

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

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.

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.

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.

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 Northamptonshire 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.

“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”

(5)

“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.”
