Reviews of Jazz Guitarists based near Basildon

5/5 from 96 reviews
Photo of Luminous Duo Luminous Duo "We booked the Duo for our wedding in Barcelona. Before the ceremony the Duo were incredibly helpful and flexible in helping finalise the set list for our welcome drinks and cocktail hour and the equipment they would require. We were also fortunate that the Duo learnt our first dance song, sending over a demo well before the ceremony so that we could check that we were comfortable dancing to it. On the day, both Nadine and Lumai were brilliant. They were exactly the style of performer we were looking for, with their bossa-nova sound setting the perfect atmosphere for our guests on their arrival and during our cocktail hour. We’ll always remember that we were fortunate enough to have a live band perform our first dance - thank you so much for making this happen!"

Based in London, England (25 miles from Basildon) 19th July 2026 Niloufar Nikpour - BIRTHDAY Photo of L'Esprit du Jazz L'Esprit du Jazz "“L’Esprit du Jazz, accordionist Karen Street’s quartet in a pleasing set of tightly arranged swing and jazz. The music ranged from Galliano musette tunes to Scottish folk style and a smoky rendition of The Way You Look Tonight from bass-playing vocalist Charlie Pyne.” Bath Festival" Based in London, England (25 miles from Basildon) 26th March 2026 Knod Knowles - Bath Festival Photo of Acoustic Singer Guitarist - Joey Acoustic Singer Guitarist - Joey "Oh wow, Joey was epic!! Such an amazing voice and such fantastic musical skills. Joey arrived on time and absolutely blew us and our guests away with such beautifully played music. He played and sung all the specific songs we asked at key moments during our ceremony we really couldn’t have asked for much more. Very accommodating, and he learned songs just for us - was just perfect." Based in London, England (25 miles from Basildon) Rob Stewart - Wedding Photo of MarcoBluesJazz MarcoBluesJazz "Marco played at our party on Saturday. We could not have been happier. The setlist was great and created just the right atmosphere. Our guests loved it. We were in our garden, and even the neighbours complimented the music. Thank you, Marco!" Based in London, England (25 miles from Basildon) Wilhelm M Photo of Tania Pieri Tania Pieri "Tania Pieri's performance at the Brighton and Hove Posh Club, was not to be missed. As soon as she came to the stage a different vibration came to the hall. I really enjoyed her singing and her playing of her ukulele, and how she is able to give meaning to the words of her songs Tania is very talented, and I hope she has a very successful future. If you get a chance go to the ukulele Festival in Shoreham. Most certainly a member of her Fan Club" Based in London, England (25 miles from Basildon) Robert Glen

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for jazz guitarists ranges from £120 to £1,050+, with an average of £330. Rates depend on the guitarist's experience, performance duration and whether the booking is for a solo performance, a duo or a larger ensemble. Jazz guitarists are a popular choice for background music at receptions, dinners and cocktail events.

The jazz guitarists for hire perform a range of jazz styles including swing, bossa nova, gypsy jazz, smooth jazz, bebop and jazz-funk. Many also cover popular songs and standards in a jazz style. The jazz guitar has a warm, mellow tone that suits both background and featured performances.

Common events for jazz guitarists include cocktail receptions, corporate dinners, wedding ceremonies, restaurant entertainment and private parties. A solo jazz guitarist provides sophisticated, unobtrusive live music that enhances the atmosphere without overpowering conversation.

Many jazz guitarists offer flexible formats including solo performances, duo or trio settings (often with double bass and drums), and as part of larger jazz ensembles. It is advisable to discuss the best format for your event and venue.

For intimate settings, many jazz guitarists can perform without amplification. For larger venues or events with background noise, a small amplifier is typically used. Most jazz guitarists bring their own equipment. For the best experience, confirm the setup based on the venue.

Sitting in with an existing line-up is normal work for jazz players, who are used to reading charts and following a standard repertoire with little rehearsal. Agreeing a set list, or at least a shared songbook, is what makes it work. Where the other musicians are booked separately, say so at the enquiry stage, as it changes what the guitarist prepares.

A solo player normally works in sets of around 45 minutes with short breaks between them, and unbroken playing across a long dinner is quoted differently. Whether the music has to be continuous is worth deciding early, since it changes both the fee and whether a second player is worth adding. Most will say how long they can comfortably play in one stretch if asked.

A single guitar suits rooms of up to around a hundred guests once amplified, beyond which the sound thins against the noise of a crowd. For larger events players usually suggest adding a second instrument rather than turning the volume up. Guest numbers and room size are what decide this, not the style of music being played.
