Danny King

"Danny was brilliant a good musician and easily fitted in to the occasion, I would certainly book him again in the future "

David hired Danny King for a Birthday party (available in Edinburgh)

Ricky Lee
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"We knew from the moment listening to his guitar performances (particularly, sweet child o mine) he could play and perform to a superb standard. We had a liaison to discuss our unique wedding plans and time was given to share my partners personal compilations he wrote and performed with his late son to be presented during our celebrations. Ricky was so respectful and supported our choices. We learned he went above and beyond. The audio music was played during the church wedding service by Ricky, in turn had helped remove some felt pressures. The venue c/o the Healing Manor too were most satisfied with his organisation and performances. There is so much planning one can do for a wedding, but there are situations not in ones control. Trust plays a huge part and we have no hestisation in recommending this true gent, Ricky."

FAQs about hiring Electric Guitarists in Edinburgh

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

Can any electric guitarist play my favourite song?

Professional electric guitarists will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that electric guitarists may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the electric guitarist's song list on their Encore profile.

How much time do electric guitarists take to set up?

Your electric 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 electric guitarist prior to their arrival.

My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?

PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our electric guitarists are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our electric guitarists will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
