5/5 from 29 reviews
Photo of Holly Rose Holly Rose "We had the pleasure of Holly Rose singing for us at my 60th Birthday party which was fabulous! She sang a fabulous set list which she had communicated with myself several times prior to ensure that she created the mood I wanted and Holly delivered it beautifully. Professional, warm, friendly, well presented and excellent communication - highly recommended! Thank you again Holly for being part of my special celebrations! xx" Based in Derby, England 2nd June 2026 Amanda Shaw - 60th Birthday Party Photo of Samson 65 - Live Act Samson 65 - Live Act "I booked Samson 65 for my brothers 40th surprise party. Professionalism and communication shone through from the initial booking till the actual party. Very fairly priced, playing songs from the 50's up to the present day, Samson 65 had the place rocking and guests up dancing all night. The atmosphere was brilliant. I would definitely recommend this duo and guarantee that you will not be disappointed." Based in Alfreton, England (13 miles from Derby) Amy Brooks - 40th Birthday Party Photo of Lady Rose Lady Rose "Lady Rose were our wedding entertainment and they were absolutely phenomenal. Jo's voice is incredible and their repertoire is extensive. Our first dance song was beautiful and all of our guests had a great time. We added on the DJ package and suggested the type of songs we enjoyed. Every song was great and they even took guest requests (at one point everyone was doing the Conga). We would 100% recommend Lady Rose for any event as the quality of their performance is outstanding. Their communication was great, they provided lots of options for songs & sets and made everything easy." Based in Nottingham, England (14 miles from Derby) Ruth Rockey - Private Wedding Photo of Christina & Harry Acoustic Duo Christina & Harry Acoustic Duo "Christina and Harry are fantastic talented musicians who made our small evening wedding reception absolutely brilliant fun. Their performance of our chosen first dance song was pure magic and made it extra special. Whether you're looking for some background music for an event or full on party live music we can't recommend them highly enough." Based in Nottingham, England (14 miles from Derby) Jenny & Tim - Private Wedding Photo of Daniel Proud Daniel Proud "Daniel was very professional, punctual and provided a high-quality performance to my guests, I will definitely be booking him again" Based in Leicester, England (24 miles from Derby) Chris W - Private Function Photo of Adam Wallace Classical/Pop Guitarist Adam Wallace Classical/Pop Guitarist "Adam was a delight to work with in the runup to our wedding (very responsive and friendly in all contact we had and listened carefully to all our thoughts and requests for the day) and then on the day was professional and played wonderfully for our guests who all commented on how nice the music was. Can't recommend Adam enough for your event." Based in Newark on Trent, England (29 miles from Derby) Jo McCreery - Private Weddings

Frequently asked questions

The average price for singer / songwriters on Gig Heaven is £250, with rates from £100 to £850+. Cost varies based on the artist's experience, set duration and whether the performance is solo acoustic or includes looping, additional instruments or backing tracks. The authentic, personal style of a singer-songwriter creates a distinctive atmosphere for intimate events.

The singer / songwriters for hire perform their own original songs, often in an acoustic or stripped-back style. Many also cover well-known songs, giving them a unique personal arrangement. This creates a distinctive, intimate performance that cannot be heard anywhere else.

Hiring singer / songwriters suits a wide range of events including weddings, private parties, corporate events, restaurant entertainment, festivals and intimate gatherings. The personal, authentic style of a singer-songwriter creates a warm, engaging atmosphere.

Many singer / songwriters offer custom songwriting services, creating an original song for a wedding, anniversary, corporate event or special occasion. This makes a unique and memorable gift or centrepiece for the celebration. Gig Heaven recommends contacting the artist well in advance for custom commissions.

Many singer / songwriters blend their original material with acoustic covers of well-known songs. This mix works well at events where guests want both familiar favourites and something fresh. For the best experience, check each artist's repertoire on their profile.

For small, intimate settings, many singer / songwriters can perform acoustically. For larger venues or outdoor events, a small PA system is usually needed. Most singer-songwriters bring their own amplification. It is worth confirming the setup based on the venue.
