Why book professional live singers?
Live music has a way of engaging any audience at any venue. However, when you specifically find a vocalist for hire, they can bring a unique edge to your night unlike any other performer.
Live singers can connect directly with their audience, adapt their set list and musical style in an instant, and carry the night to success with the sound of their voice alone.

Tribute acts

Plus, if you want to book a range of live musical acts for your venue, you can also book a DJ, hire a band, book a pianist, and even hire a sax player, all on the GigPig platform.
GigPig gives you access to a variety of performers who play classical music, depending on the atmosphere you want to create. Find string musicians to book, solo or small ensembles, ideal for creating elegant ambience in smaller spaces.
It’s also worth thinking about the sound you want your musicians to provide. If you’re looking for a more traditional performance, many string musicians for hire can play a wide range of classical pieces that have stood the test of time.
Alternatively, many classically trained artists can perform their take on modern tracks. This lets your audience enjoy a traditional sound with songs they will easily recognise.
There’s no one-size-fits-all price when it comes to booking classical musicians. Just as you’ll find a range of prices when booking a band or saxophone player, several factors affect the cost of hiring a string quartet, harpist, or other string performer.
• Location: Your geographical location can affect the overall price, with fees typically being higher in London than elsewhere in the UK.
• Number of performers: Hiring a string quartet or larger ensemble will cost more than booking a solo artist, simply due to there being more persons.
• Set length: The longer the set list, the higher the charge.
• The date: If you want to book classical music artists on a bank holiday or a special occasion such as New Year’s Eve, you may find there’s a higher fee due to popular demand.
At GigPig, we’re committed to providing transparent pricing options. All of the artists in our catalogue choose their own prices, but the booking fee you pay will always fall into one of our three clear booking fee categories:
• Pay as you go: £15 per gig
•Standard access: £199 (per month) for up to 20 gigs per month
• Enterprise access: £349 (per month) for up to 60 gigs per month
