Photo of Nícolàs “El Rom” Nícolàs “El Rom” "Absolutely fantastic. Right up there with performances we saw in Spain." Based in Scottsdale, Arizona (105 miles from Tucson) 4th October 2026 Claudia D - Sun City Anthem at Merrill Ranch Photo of Gal Drimmer Gal Drimmer "We hired Gal Drimmer to play background guitar instrumentals at The Phoenician resort. The music was so perfect for our event! Everyone loved Gal's virtuosity on the guitar. His happy upbeat music was at a perfect volume that we could hear, enjoy and converse. Gal was there to set up early and was supper nice to everyone. We will be happy to hire Gal again next time we are in Arizona!" Based in Scottsdale, Arizona (105 miles from Tucson) 19th September 2026 Clay H. - Corporate Event for Axxess Technology Solutions Photo of Jazzona Jazzona "Working with Doug and the band (Jazzona) was a great experience. Very professional and reliable. The music was fantastic and lively. I received several compliments from my members stating how much they enjoyed Jazzona and the "vibe" they brought, We look forward to many more booking with them. Highly recommended!" Based in Phoenix, Arizona (108 miles from Tucson) 18th January 2026 Steve - Fletcher's Lounge Park City UT Photo of los angeles acoustic Guitarist los angeles acoustic Guitarist "Ian Kauffman was an absolute pleasure to work with. For couples looking for live music for their ceremony or the reception, Ian is the pro. His glowing reviews are a direct reflection of his work. With little direction, Ian is able to provide clients with an eclectic list of music that brings all age groups onto the dance floor – a serious accomplishment. Not to mention, as a planner, releasing tables to a buffet line can be a stressful task, as you do not want guests waiting in an endless line. This not only demonstrates his flexibility in his services, but also his understanding for tasteful execution. The wedding I coordinated occurred on New Years Eve, so Ian was expected to provide 10+ hours of engaging music – a task he accomplished flawlessly. My bride was extremely satisfied with the outcome as well. I look forward to recommending Ian to my future clients and working with him again." Based in Los Angeles, California (442 miles from Tucson) Steve Jones - Private Individual Photo of John Henry Johnson John Henry Johnson "Better than just about everyone he slipped right in as background music/feature music and was able to entertain everyone. Fantastic." Based in Austin, Texas (790 miles from Tucson) James C. - Corporate Event Photo of Riley Wilson Riley Wilson "We couldn’t have asked for a better way to bring live music back to Lucas Founders Day than with Riley Wilson. From the moment he took the stage, his energy and talent set the tone for the entire event. Riley is a true one‑man band! Many guests told us Riley was a highlight and asked if we could bring him back next year—always the best endorsement. If you’re looking for an engaging, professional musician who can fill a festival field with great music and warm rapport, Riley Wilson is your guy. He set a new standard for our entertainment lineup, and we can’t wait to work with him again." Based in Frisco, Texas (822 miles from Tucson) Morgan K - City Concert

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for jazz guitarists ranges from $160 to $1,350+, with an average of $470. 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.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
