Frequently asked questions

Hiring acoustic duos typically costs between £150 and £1,200+, with an average of £420. The price depends on performance length, the musicians' experience and whether vocals are included alongside instrumental performance. An acoustic duo offers an intimate sound suited to ceremonies, receptions and smaller venues.

Hiring acoustic duos is a popular choice for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate dinners, garden parties, restaurant entertainment and intimate venues. An acoustic duo delivers more musical variety than a solo artist while remaining compact and versatile.

The acoustic duos perform a wide range of acoustic music including pop, rock, folk, soul, indie, country and current chart hits. The acoustic format gives songs a warm, intimate feel that suits both background music and featured performances.

Many acoustic duos offer the flexibility to start with gentle background music during dinner or drinks and build to more energetic, party-style sets later. This makes them ideal for events that change in mood throughout the evening. It is worth discussing the event flow with the duo.

Most acoustic duos need very little space and bring their own instruments and a small PA system. Some can perform entirely acoustically for smaller venues. Their compact setup makes them ideal for venues with limited room for entertainment.
