Photo of Caroline Wallis-Newport Caroline Wallis-Newport "Dear Caroline Thank you so much for playing at our wedding at Rook Lane Chapel – it was beautiful and really made the day special having ‘live’ piano music. Best wishes, Becci & Andy" Based in Yeovil, England Becci & Andy - Private Wedding, Rook Lane Chapel, Frome Photo of The Italian Tenor The Italian Tenor "Yuri sang at our wedding in May and it really made the occasion incredible. He was extremely approachable and receptive to what we wanted and easily managed 5 songs of very different styles in three languages! He sang so beautifully as I walked up the aisle I started crying immediately. Our guests were wowed. We couldn’t have hoped for better. Thoroughly and happily recommended" Based in Bracknell, England 22nd September 2026 Ilan Adler - Wedding Photo of Jade Woodhouse Cellist & Electric Cellist Jade Woodhouse Cellist & Electric Cellist "Jade was great!

Frequently asked questions

The average price for accompanists on Gig Heaven is £250, with rates from £75 to £600+. Cost varies based on the musician's experience, the length of the session and the instrument involved. Accompanists support solo vocalists, instrumentalists, choirs and other performers, and those with specialist skills or extensive repertoire may charge more.

The accompanists for hire are skilled musicians who provide musical support for singers, instrumentalists, choirs or other performers. They typically play piano or keyboard, though some specialise in guitar or other instruments. Accompanists are commonly booked for weddings, recitals, auditions and religious services.

Common events for accompanists include wedding ceremonies, church services, vocal recitals, auditions, rehearsals and other events where a singer or performer needs live musical support. Some accompanists also provide solo background music for drinks receptions and dinners.

Most accompanists are experienced sight-readers and can learn or prepare specific pieces for an event. It is advisable to send any music or song requests in advance so the accompanist can prepare. Many are comfortable working with a wide range of musical styles.

Most accompanists who play portable instruments such as guitar will bring their own equipment. Keyboard players typically bring their own instrument, though some may prefer to use a piano if one is available at the venue. It is worth confirming instrument and equipment arrangements when making an enquiry.

Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face.
