"Tim put on a fantastic set for my 30th birthday party. The music was genuinely the highlight of the evening, and he couldn’t have hit the brief any better. Everyone had such a brilliant time, with loads of dancing and a great atmosphere throughout the evening. Tim is incredibly talented, and I especially loved the harmonica playing. I had so many compliments from my guests afterwards. I would 100% recommend Tim for any event. He was brilliant from start to finish, good communicator, and really helped make the evening so memorable. Thank you again."

"Alice was absolutely incredible and I couldn’t have wished for anyone better to sing at our ceremony. She has the most beautiful voice and sounded truly stunning on the day. 🤍 What made her even more special was how much she went above and beyond for us. She helped me put together some audio for a little surprise for my husband-to-be, and was so accommodating throughout. She completely adapted to everything, went with the flow, and made the whole experience so easy and stress-free. Alice is not only a beautiful singer but such a lovely, thoughtful and talented person. We feel so lucky to have had her be part of our special day. I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough! ❤️"

"Holly was engaged to sing at my recent birthday gig. She went down a storm and was so accommodating from shuffling around our garden area to helping out with a mic for an endless barrage of speeches. Her two sets were so well received and she spent time mingling with our friends too. Holly is so personable and super talented. Highly recommended "

FAQs about hiring Singing guitarists in Guildford
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.
