Frequently asked

Quick answers to the questions that come up most often when people reach out about a gig.

• How much does it cost to book Aaron?+

  Fees depend on the day, the length of set, and how far the venue is. Most pub gigs sit in a standard range, and wedding/event bookings are quoted individually because the set lengths and travel vary a lot. Drop me a message with your date, venue and rough timings and I'll come back with a clear price — no hard sell.
• Can you learn a specific song for our wedding or event?+

  Yes — absolutely. I'll learn up to a handful of requested songs for a wedding (first dance, ceremony song, a parent dance) as part of the booking. Just send the original version through with the booking confirmation and I'll work it into the set.
• How far in advance should I book?+

  For weddings, the sooner the better — Saturdays between May and October get booked out well over a year in advance. For pub gigs and private events it's usually a few weeks to a few months. If the date I need is soon, still ask — last-minute availability comes up regularly when a booking shifts.
• Do I need to provide a PA or equipment?+

  No — I bring my own PA, microphones, stands and everything else I need for a solo acoustic set. All you need is a power socket within reasonable reach of where I'll be playing. Outdoor venues are fine as long as there's shelter from rain and a way to get power to me.
• Do you play ceremony, drinks reception AND the evening?+

  Yes — I'll often cover all three at a wedding. Typical setup is two or three shorter sets spread across the day (ceremony → drinks reception → evening background music or an acoustic set before the DJ). I'll work the timings around your schedule.
• How far will you travel?+

  I'm based in Surrey and play regularly across Surrey, London, Berkshire and the South East. I'll happily travel further for weddings and events — travel cost gets factored into the quote. If you're asking whether I cover your town, just drop me a message with the postcode and I'll let you know.
• What kind of songs do you play?+

  Acoustic covers across everything from classic rock and country through to modern pop and indie — 600+ songs I can pull from, with a heavy focus on songs that get people singing along. Think Ed Sheeran, Oasis, Fleetwood Mac, Passenger, The Eagles, Ben E. King, through to current chart stuff. Happy to share a sample setlist on request.
• What's the difference between a solo acoustic singer and a wedding band?+

  A solo acoustic singer is typically a better fit for the ceremony, drinks reception, and early evening — it's warmer, more personal, and works in smaller or outdoor spaces. A band is better once the dancing starts. Lots of weddings book both: me for the ceremony and reception, then a DJ or band for the evening party.
