"We booked Simon for our recent wedding reception party. Little did we know what would would happen when he started playing: it was just absolutely fantastic! Simon sang every song with such dedication and momentum, all our guests including us were completely in awe. It was such a pleasure to have him at our party and we can only highly recommend him, an extraordinary and brilliant entertainer. Would book him again without a shadow of a doubt!"
Client's review of Ukulele Simon
Ideal for:
Ukulele performers are going to be perfect for any events with a strong theme. Any unique event will benefit from some truly unique entertainment! This can include weddings, summer BBQs, birthday parties and other functions.
Vintage events are also going to be complimented perfectly by a ukulele player. This could be everything from product launches to small business opening nights!
When booking Ukulele Players:
While the ukulele is a naturally charming instrument, it is not particularly loud. As such, having your act perform acoustically is not recommended unless your event is particularly small and intimate. Most musicians will be able to supply adequate amplification.
Ukulele entertainers can be particularly unique. Some will tell stories and work other comedic elements into their act, while others will perform cover songs just like any other covers act. As such, particular attention should be paid to any prospective act's promotional material.
Prices for Ukulele Players:
Ukulele entertainers will usually perform solo, and so will charge a minimum of £150. This quote will alter depending on what your event is, where it is and how long you want them to play for. If you're looking to cut down on travel costs, then use the "advanced search" feature to find a Ukulele Players near you.
About Ukulele Players:
Each ukulele performer will cover different material - some prefer to cover more modern material like George Ezra, Ed Sheeran or Jess Glynne. Others will go with the "Ukulele classics" like "Somewhere over the rainbow" or "Aloha ‘Oe".
If you have specific songs that you would like to hear, you can always work on this with your prospective act. Not all popular songs will be suitable to be played on ukulele, so make sure you get any requests over as soon as you can, in order to facilitate transcription and rehearsal. Don't forget - you can also come up with a list of songs you do NOT want to hear and your musician should be able to accommodate this!
Whether it's beautiful music for a wedding ceremony, or an upbeat set of covers for a bar or function, a ukulele performer is guaranteed to entertain!
