Engagement party Singing Guitarists for hire in Guildford
Latest reviews of our Engagement Party Singing Guitarists in Guildford
"Phil was excellent and I can’t recommend him enough. After viewing some videos of Phil and other singers in the area it was clear Phil was the best fit both musically and personally. Our event was a garden party for about 60 people. We had good communication on the run up to event that included a zoom call where we ran through songs we wanted, and some we didn’t want included in the set. Phil is really friendly and accommodating and it worked out really well. On the day Phil was punctual, really engaging and just brilliant. He’s a great singer with a great portfolio of songs. It was really, really hot on the day of the event and it took a while for the crowd to get warmed up but this didn’t phase Phil at all and everyone was soon singing and dancing along. I’d hire Phil again in a heartbeat. "

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
Can any singing guitarist play my favourite song?
Professional singing guitarists will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice.

You can view the singing guitarist's song list on their Encore profile.

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.
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 singing guitarists are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing.
