Frequently asked questions


Booking multi-instrumentalists as early as possible increases the chance of securing their availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many acts also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged performances for clients with just a few hours' notice.

The cost of hiring musicians can vary significantly depending on the type of act. The average price is currently £336. Budget-level acts may be available for as low as £70, while top-tier acts can command prices as high as £1950.

You should always check whether or not your act is prepared to play outdoors. Weather conditions such as wind, rain, or extreme temperatures can affect the performance and the instruments. If you are planning an outdoor event you should be prepared to offer a flat surface for performers as well as a cover in case of unexpected rain.

Most multi-instrumentalists are self-contained and bring everything they need to perform. For solo instrumentalists, this typically includes their instrument and any accessories such as a music stand and stool. Some acts may also bring a small amplifier or PA system if needed for the size of the venue. If your event is in a particularly large venue or you have more than 200 guests, it is worth discussing sound requirements with the act when booking. They can advise whether their standard setup will be sufficient or whether additional amplification is needed. Always confirm equipment details in advance so there are no surprises on the day.

Each event is different but the typical performance time for multi-instrumentalists is 2 x 45-minute sets within a 2-hour period, with a 30-minute break in between. Some acts are happy to play longer sets or additional sets. Often, breaks can be negotiated but you should be aware that the price may increase if the musicians need to be onsite for a longer period of time.

Hire Multi-Instrumentalists in the UK

A multi-instrumentalist brings real versatility to an event or a recording, covering several instruments in a single booking. Many play at least two, with popular pairings including saxophone and oboe, guitar with keys and vocals, bass and keys, or harp and piano. That flexibility lets one musician change the mood through the day, perhaps playing oboe over dinner and then switching to saxophone alongside a DJ later on.

Booking a multi-instrumentalist

Make it clear when you enquire that you want the musician to double on more than one instrument, since some hold several listings and lines of communication, and playing multiple instruments can affect the quote, especially for a recording. It is always worth checking the player has public liability insurance for live work. Watch each act on video and read their reviews before you book.
