A guide to booking

Hire One Man Bands in the United States

One man bands in the United States deliver the variety and energy of a larger group from a single performer. These solo musicians use loop pedals, backing tracks or multi-instrument setups to produce a full sound that suits everything from intimate acoustic sets to high-energy dance floors. Their compact setup makes them a practical choice for venues of any size, and most arrive fully self-contained with PA, microphones and lighting.

Booking a Solo Act

Solo performers cover a wide stylistic range, from acoustic singer-guitarists working through pop, soul and rock standards, to loop artists layering live vocals, guitar and percussion in real time. A standard booking is two or three sets of 45 to 60 minutes, with many acts offering DJ playback between sets so the music never stops. For weddings, the same performer can often handle the ceremony, drinks reception and evening party.

One Man Band Pricing in the United States

Rates for one man bands in the United States range from $110 to $900+, with most bookings averaging $300. The final cost depends on the performer's experience, the length of the booking and any extras such as DJ sets between live performances.

Photo of Ralph Russell Saxophone Ralph Russell Saxophone "Ralph was wonderful! Ralph was amazing! He adapted so well to the mood of our party. He was able to play Christmas song lyrics on the screen so we could sing along at our Christmas party. He made the night a hit! He even stayed longer than planned because everyone was having such a nice time. Highly recommend him!"

We called for reservations a few days ahead of his show in Bartlett and the room was already sold out. We ended up sitting in another part of the restaurant but could still here him.
