Folk Singers for Hire in Las Vegas

Q: How much do folk singers cost in Las Vegas?

The average cost of hiring folk singers is $340, with prices from $110 to $1,150+. Pricing depends on the singer's experience, performance duration and whether they perform with a guitar, other instruments or backing tracks. Folk singers suit a range of settings from intimate acoustic performances to larger outdoor events.

Q: What styles do folk singers perform?

The folk singers for hire perform traditional folk, contemporary folk, Celtic, acoustic singer-songwriter material and folk-influenced popular music. Many folk singers accompany themselves on guitar, banjo or other acoustic instruments.

Q: What events are folk singers suitable for?

Hiring folk singers is ideal for weddings, pub and bar events, festivals, private parties, corporate dinners and intimate gatherings. The acoustic, storytelling style of folk music creates a warm, personal atmosphere that suits a wide range of settings.

Q: Can a folk vocalist perform as a duo or with a band?

Many folk singers offer flexible performance options, from solo acoustic sets to performances with additional musicians such as a guitarist, fiddle player or small ensemble. It is worth discussing line-up options with the singer when requesting a quote.

Q: Do folk singers need amplification?

For small, intimate venues, many folk singers can perform without amplification. For larger spaces or outdoor events, a small PA system is usually needed. Most folk singers bring their own amplification equipment. It is worth confirming the setup with the singer based on the venue.

Q: Do folk singers perform their own material as well as covers?

Many are writers as well as performers and will mix their own songs with traditional material and familiar covers. The balance is usually the booker's choice and most are happy to lean either way. For an event where guests should recognise what they hear, say so, because a set of entirely new songs makes for a different evening.

Q: Will a folk singer get guests joining in?

Singalong choruses are part of the tradition and many performers use them deliberately, choosing songs a room can pick up inside a verse. How far it goes depends on the crowd and the point in the evening, and a good performer reads that rather than forcing it. Events wanting a quieter listening set should say so, as the same singer can do either.

Q: Are pub and bar bookings different from private events?

A live folk musician working a pub or bar usually plays two or three shorter sets across an evening rather than one continuous performance, with an audience that comes and goes. The setup is lighter, since there is rarely a stage and the corner of a room is the normal spot. Rates for this work differ from function bookings, so it is worth saying which kind of event it is when enquiring.

Q: Can I contact multiple suppliers at the same time?

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard .

Q: How far in advance do we need to book?

Mel'S Acoustic "⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Wedding Experience My wife and I are incredibly grateful to Mel for being such an important part of our wedding day. From the very beginning, he served as our wedding singer and choir member during our Nuptial Mass at Prince of Peace Catholic Church. His voice added so much beauty, reverence, and emotion to the ceremony. The music made every moment feel even more meaningful, and many of our guests told us how touching the Mass was. After the ceremony, Mel seamlessly transitioned to our wedding reception as our solo acoustic performer. He created the perfect atmosphere with a wonderful mix of romantic love songs, classic favorites, and upbeat music that everyone enjoyed. His professionalism, talent, and ability to connect with our guests made the reception feel warm, elegant, and truly unforgettable. One thing we appreciated most was how easy he was to work with throughout the planning process. He was reliable, organized, and genuinely cared about making our wedding special. If you’re looking for someone who can provide beautiful church music for your wedding ceremony and then continue the celebration with live acoustic entertainment at your reception, we highly recommend Mel. His versatility and passion for music made our wedding complete. Thank you, Mel, for helping create memories that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. — Mike & Grace, Newlyweds 💍❤️🎶" Based in Las Vegas, Nevada 15th July 2026 Mike - Our wedding

Madame Mackintosh "As Madame Mackintosh began to sing the couple's first dance song, it was as if the entire room held its breath, captivated by the depth of her voice. Her setlist, a thoughtful blend of original songs and beautifully reimagined covers, enriched the atmosphere and brought an emotional dimension to the celebration. Drawing from genres as diverse as pop, rock, country and traditional wedding music, her repertoire showcased not only her versatility but her keep ability to capture the spirit of the moment. The Madame's voice ranged from a soft velvety croon to a powerful , resonant anthem, filling the room with palpable energy. She effortlessly expressed the love and joy radiating from the bride and groom. Whether performing heartfelt ballads or upbeat dance numbers, she imbued each song with a warmth and authenticity that resonated with everyone in attendance. What truly set her apart was her adaptability. Unlike DJs confined to their pre-selected playlists, the Madame embraced spontaneity, taking requests from guests and even offering inspired suggestions that added personal and unexpected touches to the evening. Madame Mackintosh didn't just perform; she became part of the celebration's heartbeat, leaving everyone in awe of her artistry."

Mark Hildebrand "It was treat to see Mark perform at the Sumner festival I attended. He is clearly dedicated to his craft and his hard work shows through in his skill. His guitar playing in particular is second to none. I also thoroughly enjoyed his honest and inclusive approach to other performers. His great talent and lack of ego are utterly refreshing."

Makaio "This review is LONG over due as Makio absolutely MADE our cocktail reception complete. I had visions of a lounge atmosphere and wanted it to be a surprise for the guests. Mak played along the entire time to the point of actually getting some silverware for one of our guests before we announced "does anyone else want to say anything" and he seamlessly broke out into my favorite standard "The Way You Look Tonight". He incorporated all our favorites as well as our guests requests. He even remembered I had some Parrotheads in the room and threw in some Buffet :) all this then drove back to the city from Indiana in a snow storm. I love his sound and I swear he sang for 3 hours straight. Honored a clip from our event is on his web page. We loved him. Book him, you will not be disappointed."
