Guitarist For Hire - What Is Your Occassion?
If you would like more information about booking me to perform at your wedding or wedding music in general, please visit my wedding music page. You will also find many kind comments about my performances on my reviews and testimonials page
I am extremely busy playing many different styles of music. I play at many weddings and corporate functions either as a solo acoustic guitarist, with my acoustic duo, in bands, or in many other lineups. I also play public gigs, so if you would like to come and see me live, please visit my public gigs page or follow me on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram to keep up to date with when and where I am performing.
Solo Guitarist
I have played solo acoustic guitar for many years either on my 7-string BJH archtop jazz guitar or more recently, as a solo acoustic guitarist.
I tend to play more background music when playing solo which is perfect to accompany a meal at a Wedding or in a restaurant. With a large repertoire of varied material, I will create a full, rich sound that will set the mood and add a touch of class.
Expect to hear arrangements of well-known pop and rock songs, jazz classics, classical guitar pieces, country, blues and even some flamenco-inspired tunes. To hear examples of my solo guitar work, I have some demos on my YouTube channel.
Bands, Duos And Other Projects
The Claire Barker Band is an amazing 5 piece wedding and party band playing throughout Norfolk and East Anglia. We are very busy playing weddings and corporate functions. We also play public gigs and the audience is always in a party mood when the band plays.
Claire Barker and I play together regularly in both the Claire Barker Band and our duo: The Claire Barker and Paul Hill Duo. We have a huge repertoire and play everything from jazz standards to 80's rock classics and everything in between.
Our duo is perfect for weddings and corporate events, although we also enjoy performing at public venues. To find out when and where we are playing next, please follow us on Facebook.
Jazz Guitar And Jazz Bands
I have played jazz for many years and I have been fortunate to have played with some incredible musicians. Whether playing in an instrumental duo, trio, quartet or larger ensemble, it is always very rewarding having great musicians with whom I can improvise a musical conversation.
I often perform at jazz clubs with my own trio or quartet and jazz enthusiasts always make for an appreciative audience. I can also provide an exceptional jazz lineup to perfectly accompany weddings, dinner parties, corporate events, civil ceremonies, garden parties and more.
