Solo musicians in Sydney: questions

When is a solo musician the right choice?

For the moments where people are still talking: the ceremony, drinks on arrival, dinner. One performer keeps the volume where a room of guests can still hear each other.

What does a solo musician charge in Sydney?

Of the 79 Sydney solo musicians with a guide price, half ask between $300 and $500, and the one in the middle is $450. Your date and hours set the real figure, so ask for a quote.

Can I hear them before I book?

What if I like an act but need a different size?

Ask. Plenty of acts play in more than one size, so the duo you like may also come as a trio, or a band may send a soloist for the ceremony and the full group for the reception.
