Latest reviews of our Singing Guitarists
"David was an amazing singer! He was so flexible as the weather kept changing on the day so we had to change location last minute at the venue. All the guests thoroughly enjoyed his performance and I've had so many comments from friends and family that David was one of the best live singers they've listened to. Thank you for making the day extra special! Highly recommend!!!"

Anne hired Remy for a Wedding
"Absolutely fantastic - we booked Ross as a surprise for my sister’s hen do. He was great at communicating through the booking process and during the lead up to the event, and took on board exactly what we asked for. He was fantastic at reading the room during the event, and tailoring his songs accordingly - he has an incredible talent, not just musically but also at working out which songs people are likely to enjoy and adapting his set list as he goes. He really embraced the atmosphere and joined in, was so friendly and likeable, and just really was everything we were hoping for and more to finish off the hen do on a massive high! Could not recommend more! "

FAQs about hiring Singing Guitarists in the UK
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
Is it hard to sing and play guitar?
Singing and playing guitar simultaneously can be a challenging task for both beginners and experienced musicians. It requires coordination, timing, and the ability to focus on two separate tasks at once. Experienced musicians may find it easier to sing and play guitar simultaneously, but it still requires a high level of skill and practice. They need to be able to anticipate the chords and lyrics of the song, and they need to be able to adjust their playing and singing to match the tempo and dynamics of the music. With practice, most people can learn to sing and play guitar simultaneously. It is a rewarding skill that can add a new dimension to your musical performance.
How to choose the right singing guitarist?
Choosing the right singing guitarist for your event can make or break the atmosphere and mood of the occasion. Here are some factors to consider when making your decision: - Musical Style and Genre: Think about the overall theme and vibe of your event and choose a singing guitarist who aligns with that style. If you're planning a casual gathering, a singer-songwriter with an acoustic guitar might be perfect. For a more formal event, a vocalist with a wider repertoire and a backing band might be more suitable. - Experience and Repertoire: Ensure the singing guitarist has a proven track record of success in similar events. With Encore, you can read their reviews to evaluate their experience level and reputation. - Stage Presence and Professionalism: Choose a singing guitarist who exudes confidence and stage presence. They should be able to engage the audience, interact with guests, and maintain a professional demeanour throughout the event. On our site, you can browse through our collection of 360 singing guitarists who can bring your event to the next level.
How much time do singing guitarists take to set up?
Your singing guitarist will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the singing guitarist prior to their arrival.
