A guide to booking

Hire Acoustic Bands in Kingston, Ontario, Canada

Acoustic bands in Kingston, Ontario, Canada play unplugged or lightly amplified, which suits ceremonies, drinks receptions and rooms with a sound limit. Most work from popular songs rearranged for acoustic instruments, and many offer a smaller line-up for the daytime and a fuller one after dinner.

Where Acoustic Bands Work Best

Outdoor ceremonies, marquees and rooms with a strict noise limit are the obvious cases, because an acoustic set carries without a PA fighting the limiter. They also suit long events where the music has to sit under conversation for part of the day and lead it later. Ask whether the band brings its own small PA, since even acoustic acts usually want vocal reinforcement in a larger room.

Acoustic Band Costs in Kingston

Rates for a duo in Kingston start at $240 and rise to $2,650+ for a five-piece with full instrumentation, with most bookings around $800. Line-up size is the main variable, followed by how many hours of playing you need and how far the band travels.

Many acoustic bands offer the flexibility to switch between acoustic and amplified sets during an event. This allows the music to start quietly during dinner or drinks and build in energy later in the evening. It is worth discussing this option with the band when making an enquiry.
