Jazz guitarists bring sophisticated musical artistry to weddings, corporate events and private celebrations. These skilled musicians perform everything from traditional jazz standards like "Autumn Leaves" and "Body and Soul" to contemporary jazz arrangements of popular songs. Solo jazz guitar players create an intimate, elegant atmosphere well suited to cocktail hours, dinner service and reception entertainment.
Professional jazz guitar players offer versatile entertainment that adapts to any event atmosphere. Unlike larger ensembles, a solo jazz guitarist provides high-quality live music without overwhelming conversation or requiring extensive setup space. Many performers combine their instrumental skills with vocals, while others specialize in pure instrumental pieces. Similar to how accordion players bring cultural authenticity to events, jazz guitarists add musical sophistication that impresses guests and creates memorable moments. Some musicians also collaborate with drummers for duo performances when larger sound is desired.
Repertoire often includes jazz standards such as All Of Me and The Days Of Wine And Roses, with some performers favoring a nylon-string approach for a traditional tone.
Jazz guitar music suits numerous event types and settings. Wedding ceremonies benefit from gentle acoustic jazz during guest arrival and signing moments. Corporate events use jazz guitarists to create professional ambiance during networking sessions and award ceremonies. Restaurant openings, art gallery exhibitions and private dinner parties all gain sophisticated atmosphere from live jazz guitar performance. Working alongside composers and arrangers, some jazz guitarists offer custom musical arrangements tailored to specific event themes. The intimate nature of solo guitar performance makes these musicians ideal for venues where bagpipers or banjo players might be too bold.
Professional jazz guitarist fees typically start from $100 for shorter performances and standard repertoires. Experienced performers with extensive song catalogs and premium equipment charge around $350, while top-tier jazz guitarists for prestigious events can reach $1,100+. Pricing factors include performance duration, travel distance, equipment requirements and repertoire complexity. Musicians offering both instrumental and vocal performance often command higher fees than purely instrumental acts.
The average price is $350 (USD), with most priced from $100 to $1,100+. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Kind Of Two
"They accompanied us brilliantly on the most important day of our lives"
Jesús Gómez Guitarist
"Jesus was a super easy guy to work with. A gentleman. He was very accommodating and as you can imagine with a private wedding somtimes the timings can be off or over runs with speeches but Jesus was vwry understanding and patient. Totally positive experience."
East West Rest Trio
"Playing an award show isn’t the easiest setting, especially without a clear cue schedule, but East West Rest made it feel completely natural. With just a few pointers, they listened, anticipated, and flowed seamlessly with the hosts and the rhythm of the night. As a producer, that took a big worry off my shoulders, and for the audience it added the perfect sound effects and a warm, pleasant, welcoming vibe during walk-in/breaks/inbetween awards. Imanol, Tian and Giannis, thank you so much for the music, the energy and the kindness. You truly set the tone for the evening. (The Lush team was also very pleased!)"
Austin Charnis Guitar
"Austin is a talented musician with an extensive repertoire. He was incredibly helpful and insightful during the song selection process for the ceremony and cocktail hour. Most importantly he arrived early and was extremely professional throughout. He received rave reviews from all our guests."
Nícolàs “El Rom”
"Absolutely fantastic. Right up there with performances we saw in Spain."
"Elise and the Gioboys"
"The trio was absolutely wonderful. They were exactly what we were looking for for our wedding: a heartfelt atmosphere for the bride and groom’s entrance, a joyful atmosphere for the cocktail hour, and the highlight of the evening with the party set at the end of the night. Their repertoire was varied and perfectly suited to what we were looking for. Thank you for your professionalism, punctuality, and kindness.
