Rates for violin players in Chichester begin at about £120 for a single short set, with most quotes coming in near £330 and experienced electric acts carrying their own sound equipment reaching £850+. Set length drives the figure more than anything else, followed by whether the performance is acoustic or electric and how far the player travels. Learning a specific piece for a processional or first dance usually adds a small fee, and covering a ceremony and an evening reception together costs more than a single set. Ask for a written quote that states set length, arrival time and the rate if the schedule overruns. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Irish Frank
"Frank Doherty and Ben Gunnery turned a family party into a proper ‘hooley’! From folk songs, to ballads, to the Siege of Ennis, they cranked up the volume when we wanted everyone up on the dance floor, but also allowed the fiddle, guitar and tin whistle to play quietly in the background when people wanted to sit & talk.
Two very good Irish musicians; well-played lads ‘go raibh mait agat’!"
ClusterFolk
"Clusterfolk played at my wedding last weekend and were absolutely amazing.
They were the perfect backdrop to my wedding reception and played a mix of instrumentals and vocals.
We received many compliments regarding the music and quality, and the guys are truly lovely and easy to work with.
We wouldn’t hesitate to book them again"
