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 James C. - Corporate Event Photo of Victoria Roze Manzini Electric Violinist Victoria Roze Manzini Electric Violinist "This will be the family Thanksgiving gathering that will be talked about for years. The children and adults all had a wonderful time from Victoria starting us off with her beautiful violin playing to Mario's magic and escape performances. Mario was very funny and held the attention of everyone in the room. The children and adults were able to participate in some of the acts which made the show extra special. I would recommend further bookings for Mario."

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for roaming musicians ranges from $170 to $2,800+, with an average of $500. Rates depend on the musician's experience, performance duration and the instrument involved. Roaming musicians move freely among guests rather than playing from a stage, creating an interactive, intimate atmosphere.

The roaming musicians for hire include a wide range of instruments suited to mobile performance, such as violin, guitar, accordion, saxophone, ukulele, steel pan and various string and brass instruments. Many perform solo or in small groups.

Hiring roaming musicians is ideal for wedding drinks receptions, corporate networking events, garden parties, restaurant entertainment, festivals and cocktail hours. A roaming musician creates an intimate, personal atmosphere by performing directly among guests.

Most roaming musicians perform acoustically without any amplification, which makes them extremely versatile and suited to venues of all sizes. For very large or noisy spaces, some musicians may use a small portable amplifier. It is advisable to discuss the venue with the musician.

Most roaming musicians perform for one to three hours, depending on the event. Roaming performances are often booked for specific segments such as a drinks reception or dinner service. Gig Heaven recommends discussing the event schedule to agree the best timing.
