A guide to booking

Hire Soul Singers in Reading, England, United Kingdom

Soul singers in Reading, England, United Kingdom cover everything from intimate acoustic ceremony performances to full-voice party sets, and most local vocalists offer more than one performance format. The most common booking is a soloist with backing tracks, which delivers a near-full-band sound at a smaller budget, but many performers also work as a duo with a pianist or guitarist, or front their own band for events wanting a fuller live sound.

Repertoire and Setlists

Local soul vocalists tend to split between classic soul (Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye) and modern soul and R&B (Adele, Sam Smith, John Legend, Joss Stone). Most maintain published setlists on their profiles, and the majority will learn one or two specific requests for a wedding or milestone event without an extra fee, provided there is reasonable notice.

What Soul Singers Cost

Rates for soul vocalists in Reading typically run from £110 for a soloist with backing tracks at a local event up to £1,150+ for an established performer travelling with a band, with the average sitting around £380. The main cost variables are line-up (solo, duo or band), set length, travel distance and whether a PA is provided by the venue. Most soloists carry their own vocal PA suitable for rooms up to around 150 guests; larger venues usually need an in-house system.

Photo of Anna Nightingale Vintage Jazz swing Singer Anna Nightingale Vintage Jazz swing Singer "Stephanie M August 2022 5 out of 5 I booked Anna as a solo act for my Parents 50th wedding anniversary. From the moment I enquired online, Anna's communication was flawless. She made me feel very confident in all aspects, including but certainly not limited to song requests and act requirements. Anna was kind enough to bring a card for my parents and she was respectful and mindful when I told her a few days prior to the event that a family member had passed away. Anna went out of her way to pay tribute on the night and even allowed my father to do the same. I couldn't recommend her enough - truly a great artist and even greater person. regards Stephanie" Based in Maidenhead, England (12 miles from Reading) Stephanie - Annniversary party Photo of Peter Stacey Peter Stacey "Really strong voice with great selection of Motown and other music Genre /songs Got everyone up dancing all evening.
