Acoustic Musicians in Birmingham

Live acoustic music for weddings and events in Birmingham

If you want live music for your wedding without the volume of a full band, an acoustic act is the natural choice. In Birmingham, acoustic musicians play ceremonies, drinks receptions and dinners, giving the day a relaxed, personal soundtrack.

Popular wedding venues in Birmingham include The Grand Hotel Birmingham, Castle Bromwich Historic Gardens and Aston Hall, and our acoustic acts travel to weddings and events across Birmingham, Solihull and Sutton Coldfield. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we'll help you choose an act that suits the space. Birmingham Botanical Gardens, Moxhull Hall and Selly Manor are among the other Birmingham venues listed further down, each with its own page.

Acoustic acts range from solo singer-guitarists to duos and small trios with harmonies. Repertoire usually runs from classic love songs and folk to acoustic versions of recent chart hits, so the music feels familiar without being loud.

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

The essentials:

• Prices usually from £350 up to £1,400
• Many acts can cover more than one part of the day in a single booking
• Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to enquire early
• The quote you receive sets out exactly what's included
• 14-day change-of-mind refund on every booking

Think about the size of the space and how many guests will be there. A single performer works well for up to around 80 guests in a ceremony room, while a duo or trio carries better outdoors or in a busy reception. Most acts bring a small, discreet PA so they can be heard without being loud.

Most acoustic act bookings fall between £350 and £1,400. A solo musician for a single set sits at the lower end; a duo or trio covering the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. The date and time of year make up the rest of the difference, so a weekday or winter date can cost less than a summer Saturday.

Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the performer you would be booking, with videos, audio, a repertoire list and reviews. Between them you can get a clear sense of the act well before the day.
