452 original artists are available to book in Ireland, with 543 reviews from real clients rating performances 5 out of 5. These are acts that perform their own material: singer-songwriters and singing guitarists at one end, original bands, rappers and DJ-producers at the other, and most of them mix their own songs with covers so a set works for a crowd that has never heard them.
Booking fees start from €100 for a solo acoustic set and most bookings sit around €380, with the size of the act and the length of the set deciding the rest. Sort the results below by price to compare fees before you enquire.

Original artists in Ireland range from a solo singer-songwriter with an acoustic guitar to a full band or a rapper with a DJ, and the common thread is a repertoire they wrote themselves. Some have released records and play festivals; others are working musicians who fold three or four of their own songs into a covers set. The profile tells you which, and the audio and video on it are the quickest way to judge whether the sound fits the event.
Original acts suit the parts of an event where people listen rather than dance: a drinks reception, a dinner, a festival slot or a launch where the music is meant to be noticed. For a wedding party or a dancefloor, ask how much of the set is covers, because a room full of guests who do not know the songs is the one thing an originals act cannot fix. Many will learn a first-dance song or a request if asked in advance.
Fees for original artists in Ireland run from €100 to €1,750+, with most bookings around €380. A solo acoustic set sits at the bottom of the range and a band with its own sound engineer at the top; an act with a following charges for the name as well as the set. Travel and a PA, where the venue has none, are the usual extras.
The average price is €380 (EUR), with most priced from €100 to €1,750+. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Every Styles Voice&Piano | Voice&Guitar
"Luisa Annibali was the perfect choice for our Christmas lunch. She deserves to be entertaining a much bigger audience than ours, but seemed to enjoy every minute, as did everyone in attendance. I highly recommend Luisa as a talented, sparkling, lovely singer and entertainer."
Escudero Sax
"We booked Roberto to play at our wedding in Spain – and we are SO glad we did!
Roberto started by playing some songs during dinner, which was the perfect way to create a great atmosphere! Afterward, he played a 30-minute set for the party, which was the perfect way to get the celebration going!
He has our highest recommendation!"
For the Audience of One
"Absolutely incredible! Nerina’s voice was exceptional and truly touched our hearts. Her beautiful singing, accompanied by Juan’s gentle sound of the guitar, created such a warm and special atmosphere at our wedding.
The highlight for us was the beautiful, personalised song they performed especially for our son and daughter-in-law. It was such a meaningful and emotional moment that we will treasure forever.
Thank you, Nerina and Juan, for creating such a magical memory for our family. Your talent and passion were extraordinary, and we couldn’t recommend you highly enough! ❤️"
