Reviews from local events in France
“Julien (True Troubadour) is an incredibly talented and kind musician who brought a lot of positive energy to our wedding, and truly made it unforgettable. Not only does he have a beautiful voice and presence (our guests kept coming up to us to pass on their compliments about Julien!), but he was very communicative throughout the whole process and answered all of our many, many questions with patience and humour. For our ceremony, he even learned a song for us which he performed so beautifully. During the reception, Julien played songs we had requested but also matched the vibe of the afternoon really well with his choices, which included English, French and German songs. This was a very happy surprise for our French and German families. We also wanted to compliment his ability to seamlessly blend into the physical and emotional landscape of our wedding. Our friends and family thought Julien was an old friend of ours because he was so at ease and knew exactly how to be at the right time and place. It felt like Julien was really meant to be at our wedding and we are so happy we found him. Julien went above and beyond, and even helped set up microphones and his sound system for our speeches, as well as for the dancing. We were so impressed and honoured to have Julien at our wedding and would recommend him to anyone if you are looking for a talented, honest, joyful and organised musician. Our only regret is that the day was so busy for us, that we didn't have the time to listen to more of his songs, and we are already looking forward to our wedding video so we can hear Julien's singing again. Lots of love, Cosima & Miguel”
“Our wedding guests had the same reaction … WHO IS THIS BAND?!? RRB absolutely killed it. The set the vibe, flowed with the moment and creating memories that will last a lifetime. I cannot possibly imagine a better group to make your wedding day special. As one French best put it, “I have a high bar for weddings and the music. Your band was the best one I’ve seen. And I’ve been to many m au weddings””

Booked Sunset Jets for a wedding at Couvent Notre-Dame des Prés, route de la gare, Reillanne, France
“Riviera Roaming Band came for our wedding in the South of France and we can only praise them. Not only did they learn a specific song we wanted to play at the end of the ceremony but they created a magnificent party atmosphere at the end of our dinner. Highly recommended! Everyone loved them. Thank you so much for making our wedding so special! Sacha & Max.”
“Jérémy and Jennifer were absolutely fantastic! We hired their service for our intimate renewal of vows. Jérémy who took the lead on communication, was informative and easy to work with. On the day, both were excited and enthusiastic to be with us. They set up and beared the not so ideal weather. They weren't in a rush, which helped us relax. Their music was incredible. Perfectly timed to our special moments during the ceremony, and then lively and fun during the less formal moments. The music on the day far exceeded our expectations. They picked up on our musical preferences and didn't miss a beat or a song. We loved it. Thank you Jérémy and Jennifer!”
“As an wedding planner, I highly recommend this trio for any welcome event or cocktaul hour for a wedding day. They were professional, talented, and a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Their music created the perfect atmospher, elegant and warm. They truly elevated the event, and I would happily work with them again!! Thank you!!!”
Booked Sunset Jets for a wedding at La Bastide de Marie, Ménerbes, France
“The performance from Bright Hours Duo was superb! We were able to tell them in advance our musical tastes by referring to their repertoire. We were touched by their kindness, gentleness and talent. A real plus for our wedding cocktail. We highly recommend Bright Hours Duo for any event!”
“True Troubadour was INCREDIBLE! He was so amazing and we loved that he was part of our wedding day. He had so many people up dancing and it made the day even more special.”
Here's a List of Some Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Hiring an Acoustic for Weddings and Events...
What exactly is an acoustic duo?
It’s a duo of musicians with one or both members singing, with one or both playing on acoustic guitar. This, of course, is not a strict definition though. One member of the duo can instead perform on keyboard or even a reduced drum kit (snare and hi-hat) or any other acoustic instrument for that matter.
What are the advantages of hiring an acoustic duo for your wedding or event?
As they are just two musicians, the cost for hiring an acoustic duo is usually significantly less than hiring a full band. They require less time to set up and pack down at the end of the night and can perform in a smaller stage area, often less than 2m x 2m.
For what occasions are acoustic duos suitable?
Just about any occasion where live music is required, but they are particularly suitable for wedding receptions with fewer guests in smaller, more intimate wedding venues. They are suitable at venues with difficult access where it would be problematic to bring all of the equipment required for a full wedding band.
They are ideal as background music for more low-key events like a drinks reception, small corporate events or even Christmas parties.
Acoustic duos are also ideal for wedding venues with strict sound limiters in place. Most wedding venues in the UK now have sound limiters fitted – they can cause the power supply to the band to be cut off if a certain pre-determined decibel limit is exceeded. It’s best to check with your venue if they have a sound limiter installed, and at what level it is set, e.g. 95 decibels (dB), 90dB or sometimes as low as 85dB.
Hiring an acoustic duo thus means you don’t have to worry about sound limiter issues as the sound produced by the duo is always far below the limiter’s level.
Acoustic duos are also suitable for international events where you require the duo to travel to your event to perform. For example, many UK based acoustic duos on FixTheMusic perform at weddings in France, Italy and Spain.
With just two members, there is less equipment to transport and fewer expenses to pay for – clients are paying for flights and accommodation for only two musicians, rather than four or five. Hence, hiring an acoustic duo for destination weddings is a cost-effective and popular solution.
Are acoustic duos loud enough to get people dancing at a wedding reception or party?
Absolutely. Most acoustic duos have a party set ideal for dancing – some use a self-contained PA system to boost their sound when required.
How much cheaper will an acoustic duo be in comparison to a full band?
Put simply, the main factor that determines the cost of live music is the number of musicians required. Therefore, an acoustic duo is often about half the price of hiring a four-piece band for your event.
What sort of music do acoustic duos play?
Acoustic duos can perform any music that a full band would perform, of course with a more stripped-back arrangement. Their set lists often feature many acoustic guitar-based songs but they are highly skilled musicians who perform a wide range of pop and rock covers.
