Instrumental Music

When an event calls for an understated yet impactful atmosphere, instrumental music is the perfect choice. It can also be an engaging centrepiece that brings guests and audiences together.

Whether you’re looking for subtle yet engaging background music or an upbeat ceilidh band for weddings, you can find talented instrumental artists through the AMV Live Music catalogue.

What types of instrumental artists are available to hire?

Instrumental music is incredibly varied, so you’re sure to find an artist who can create the perfect ambience for your event. While instrumental music may not feature vocals, instrumental artists offer a rich tapestry of sound and emotion through their instruments alone.

• Instrumental guitar artists: From Classical guitar to Folk tracks, instrumental guitar artists provide intricate melodies and a unique sense of storytelling. Performers like Connor Thomas are highly adept at the instrument and can offer a unique take on your favourite contemporary tracks.
• Ceilidh bands: Looking for upbeat Folk music that will get your guests up and dancing? A ceilidh band can offer just that. Rooted in Scottish and Irish culture, bands like The Keel Row Ceilidh combine energetic live music with a caller who guides guests through traditional dance steps.
• String musicians: From serene and elegant harpists to vibrant violinists, string musicians can cater to an array of atmospheres. In the AMV Live Music catalogue, you’ll find solo artists like Kate Chruscicka, who brings a contemporary twist to the violin, as well as classic string quartets like Aurora Strings.
• Pianists: A skilled pianist like John Leo Horgan, can bring sophistication to a range of events, performing both classical pieces and modern tracks.
• Saxophonists: Bold and spirited, saxophonists bring smooth jazz vibes to the occasion. Solo artists, such as Andrea De Vere, are ideal for elegant gatherings. You can also hire a saxophone player as part of an engaging DJ set! If you’re looking for the ultimate DJ experience, look no further than House of Sax.
