Guitar players mostly quote per set rather than per hour, with rates in Burnley starting from about £100 for a single instrumental set, typical bookings around £250 and singer-guitarists bringing their own PA reaching £800+. Longer performances, weekend and peak-season dates, and sets that include vocals all push quotes up. When comparing quotes, check what each includes: amplification, travel and time to learn requested songs are sometimes itemised separately. Booking ceremony and reception music with the same performer often costs less than hiring two separate acts. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

The Distance
"Soph & Matt played for our wedding in September and were absolutely fantastic! Not only did they include songs we had requested for the playlist but knew how to play perfectly for the crowd. All guests loved them, from our 5 year old cousins and friends in their twenties to parents and my 80 year old nan-in-law. The dance floor was never empty - I can testify that all dancers never stopped moving. I want to thank Soph & Matt for making our wedding reception, it was truly amazing and guests are still talking about them nearly 5 months on. An awesome wedding band!"

"Great guitar harmonica vocals and all round good guy. Have seen him play on numerous occasions and always sounds fresh and great on stage"
Tim Pavitt
"Tim Pavitt is a perfect choice for any venue or event. He is a musician of wide range and repertoire. He has a gorgeous voice as well as being a virtuoso guitarist. I have invited him to several events of my own, and been to many occasions where he has played. The audiences love his sound and style, whether blues, folk or country, or anything he likes from musicals and other genres. He is an unassuming, amusing presence on stage so he can be a gentle background or solo concert performer in his own right. He fits the bill as needed. A great and very likeable talent!"
Roger Gamon Guitarist - classical/jazz/pop
"Roger was brilliant from when I first made contact right through to the day itself. He played beautifully and made such a huge difference to our wedding celebrations. Everyone was blown away by his professionalism, skill, and kindness. A truly outstanding performer, thank you!"
