Live Musicians for Hire in Spain: Singers, DJ, Sax and Bands
Singers, instrumentalists, a DJ and cover bands for weddings, corporate events and private parties in Alicante and across Spain.
Live musicians for hire in Alicante and across Spain: twelve performers, from singers and instrumentalists to a DJ and cover bands. They play weddings, corporate events and private parties, always on our own sound and lighting.
The musicians you can book
Every act below can be hired on its own or combined with others in one evening. Each name is shown with the role it plays on stage.
Live singers for hire in Spain
Aliona, Melisa, Yara, Maria Nechi, Fokin and Agnessa Mayor work as solo vocalists for a ceremony, a dinner or a full programme. A singer can be a format on their own, or join a duo or trio with a guitar or keys.
Instrumentalists for a ceremony or dinner
Usein Bekirov is a composer, pianist, arranger and sound producer. Oleksandr Khrapov is a guitarist and arranger. Igor Rudy plays the saxophone, and Agnessa Mayor combines vocals, guitar and saxophone.
Instruments suit the ceremony, the welcome drinks and the dinner best, because the music stays alive without covering conversation. Read more on the violinist and saxophonist pages.
DJ with live saxophone or vocals
DJ Angeliya is a singer, DJ, songwriter and Eurovision finalist. A DJ plus a live instrument is one of the most requested set-ups: the DJ drives the tracks while a saxophonist or a vocalist plays live on top. You get the energy of a live act without moving a full band.
Cover bands for hire
Royal Band plays international hits in a programme that works for a mixed room. Rock Beat brings classic rock and pop-rock. Don’t Tell is a third cover band on our list. A band plays in blocks of 40 to 50 minutes with breaks, so guests can eat and talk. To compare the bands, see the cover bands guide.
Which format fits your event
Three things decide the format, and the performer should be chosen after them, not before:
- Guest numbers: up to 40 people suit a soloist or a duo, because a full line-up would overwhelm the room. From 40 to 100 a trio or a reduced line-up works, and above 100 a full band;
- The venue: a hotel hall with a volume limit or a terrace will not take drums, however much you want them, while a country finca allows everything;
- The mood of the evening: a long dinner needs background music and a party needs drive, which are opposite jobs that one line-up rarely does well.
A plan we recommend often: an instrumentalist or a singer plays the ceremony and the meal, and the full band comes on for dancing alone. The evening changes pace, and you avoid paying for a band that sits idle for hours.
Is the equipment included?
Yes. The artists perform on our own kit, which they know well, so you do not hire performers in one place and speakers in another.
- Sound and lighting sized to the room or the open-air space, with a sound engineer all evening;
- Stage and architectural lighting;
- A stage and a screen when needed;
- Microphones for the ceremony, the toasts and the host;
- Set-up, a soundcheck before guests arrive, and dismantling afterwards.
When performers and equipment have different owners, their first meeting happens at the party itself, and no one answers for the final sound. Most technical failures sit right at that join.
Repertoire and language
At a Ukrainian family event in Spain the room is almost always mixed: relatives from home, Spanish colleagues and neighbours, sometimes guests from other countries. A mix that works well:
- International hits as the backbone of the evening, since everyone knows them;
- Ukrainian songs for the big moments: the first dance, the toasts and the finale;
- Spanish songs later at night, when the whole room is dancing.
The playlist is agreed in advance, and you name the songs that must be played. For an English-speaking couple or company the team plans everything in English.
Events our artists play
- Weddings: ceremony, drinks, banquet, first dance and dancing;
- Corporate events: the formal part and the informal evening;
- Milestone birthdays: a programme for the guest of honour’s generation;
- Birthday parties: at a villa, a restaurant or a country finca;
- Wedding anniversaries: an intimate format;
- A concert or a city event with a full technical rider.
Where the artists perform
A recent example is Royal Band’s regular programme, described in the Orihuela Costa pub case. Everything starts from Alicante, our base.
Nearby towns such as Elche (25 km) and Benidorm (45 km) add very little to the quote, while Madrid (420 km) and Barcelona (530 km) mean an overnight stay for the crew. Every other destination is listed on the cities page.
How to book an artist
Message us on WhatsApp or call. We need the date, the city and venue, roughly how many guests, and the type of event. We check who is free on your date, suggest a line-up for the venue and price the technical kit. There is no fixed booking deadline: send the date and we check who is free and reply.
What to ask the venue before booking
The venue decides which line-up is possible at all. Ask these questions before paying a deposit:
- How much spare electrical power there is, quoted in kilowatts rather than “there are sockets”. A band with full lighting wants a dedicated supply, which older fincas and villas often cannot give;
- Whether there is a volume limit, by contract or by a hardware limiter, which is standard in hotels;
- Until what time music is allowed, and whether it is written down;
- From what time the venue is open for set-up, since a full kit takes several hours;
- How the vehicle with the equipment arrives and where it unloads;
- Whether your contract with the venue obliges you to use its own sound system;
- Whether there is a room for the artists to change and leave instruments.
Send us the venue name: we often know it already, and if not we find out in one call. More in how to choose an event venue.
Common mistakes when choosing musicians
- Choosing the performer before the format. First work out the guest count and what the venue allows, then see who is free;
- Hiring a full band for a hall with a limiter, so the band plays at a quarter of its power and the money is wasted;
- Paying the venue deposit first and only then pricing the artists and the equipment;
- Skipping the playlist, so the evening follows a generic template;
- Ignoring language in a mixed room, which decides whether half the guests follow what is happening;
- Splitting artists and equipment between suppliers, so nobody is responsible for the final sound.
A longer breakdown is in how to choose musicians.
Frequently asked questions
How many artists do you have?
Twelve acts of different kinds: singers, instrumentalists, a DJ and cover bands. We choose the format for your venue and guest count.
Can I book one musician instead of a band?
Yes. Solo formats such as a singer, a saxophonist, a guitarist or a pianist are available separately, for a ceremony, welcome drinks or dinner.
Are sound and lighting included?
Yes. All the kit belongs to us and comes along with the artists, with installation and a sound engineer included.
What if the venue has a volume limit?
We pick a line-up to suit it. A duo or a soloist will sound better than a band forced to play at a quarter of its power.
Can I organise everything in English?
Yes, bookings can be handled in English, since the team speaks four languages: Spanish, English, Ukrainian and Russian. A host for the evening is available only in Ukrainian, Russian or Spanish.
