We're really excited to have been featured in this month's issue of the Classical Music Magazine!
Read on to find out our CEO James's predictions for the future of the music industry 🔮 and why every musician should be familiar with the online marketplaces SoundBetter and Fat Llama.

What a lovely review! Thanks, Gagandeep!
I’m so glad I came across this site. I was in urgent need for a violinist to play at my wedding reception and with this site I was able to the find exactly that in literally minutes. I was given a variety of list of profiles and some description about them. This was really helpful as it allowed me to narrow down my search. I found exactly what I was looking for and spoke to the lady, had a little chat and booked her straight away. It ...is a great idea to pay the deposit first and closer to your event pay the outstanding amount, really helps! Thanks a lot to this website and it’s staff! I would highly recommend this site to anyone looking for a musician for their event. This place will have exactly what you are looking for and cater for your needs. You also get a early bird discount which is very handy! 10 out of 10 for this site. Thanks!!!

All our guests haven't stopped complimenting him on how amazing his singing & guitar playing was, the atmosphere he created and how much of a nice and smiley guy he was ! Thom even learnt the song we asked him to play for when the bridal party cane down the isle and even sent a sample of him singing befo...re hand. Thom you helped to make our wedding day the amazing day that it was and it was an absolute pleasure to have you play on the day ."⠀ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (29 July 2018)⠀ ⠀ THOM is available for weddings, parties and corporate events all over south England!

Great work The Rosebourne Duo! https://encoremusicians.com/The-Rosebourn e-Duo

Our Head of Artist Relations, Jonny, is embarking on a rather crazy trip next month - cycling the length of the UK, singing a concert of a cappella repertoire at every stop, in aid of the mental health charity, Mind.
Here he is making a fool of himself in a public park 😂
If you feel so moved, you can follow along with his future singing/cycling antics here: https://www.facebook.com/thesongcyclists< br>

We recently surveyed 241 people about their experience of booking musicians online, and we asked them one particularly interesting question: “Was there anything you found stressful or difficult about booking live music?”

Reviews like this are what motivate us to continue building the world's best musician booking platform. Thanks Graham! :D
"We used Encore to find a jazz trio for my daughter’s wedding. Encore sourced around 20 musical acts in the jazz genre for us to consider. We found the service invaluable, as we really didn’t know quite where to start and in the end the quality of the act we chose was fantastic. The Encore website and the process to book an act is really user friendly and the information provided about the act and the information relating to our booking was brilliant. We would definitely recommend the use of Encore for sourcing a musical act."

Very sorry to hear that East Sussex Music Service may be closing down. The specialist education that our music services provide is vital for sustaining the rich musical culture we have in the UK.
Please consider signing this e-petition to stop the closure.

We're thrilled to announce that we've just hit 1000 Encore reviews - with a whopping 99% of them rated 4 or 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

World-class customer service, and the best selection of musicians in the country. Having booked through Encore myself, I would highly recommend it!

Perfect platform for all kinds of musicians and clients. The communication is amazing between the musician, the client and Encore. This is what we've been waiting for!

I was a little cynical at first because I applied for hundreds of gigs without being hired. However, something changed about 2 months ago and now I get regular bookings with Encore. I love the account/payment section as if helps me with my accounting and taxation.

Thanks!

I contacted Encore Musicians needing a solo singer with only a few days to the event, they were so helpful, and immediately we received emails from musicians that were able to attend and fitted the profile we wanted...we decided on a solo singer guitar player Ryan Walvin....He was absolutely brilliant..,arrived on time, great vocals, and really friendly nice guy...everyone was extremely impressed....I cannot recommend Encore highly enough, they took all the worry away and were so helpful..it was a pleasure working with them...And Ryan as an absolute delight.....5 stars all 'round....Wendy A Isaacs....

Great company to use and very helpful people

Excellent customer service and specially like how I can use Encore as a website to showcase my work. I have had several bookings through Encore, which include my first ever gig in Central London!



I would recommend Encore to any musician, whether performer or composer.

Encore Musicians is a great platform for 21st Century musicians. It's provided me with a broad view of what clients truly want from their musicians whilst at the same time working towards ensuring musicians have the pay and conditions they desire. The platform is continually being refined by a team who actually care about the level of service they provide. On occasion when I've needed to sort gig details out the bookings team have dealt with issues swiftly. Well done Encore!

An excellent concept that has huge potential for even the most modest of bookings. I hope like to see the service used much more for local exam accompanying and church service organist requests.

Get bombared with e mails 10 a day or more, when i apply for a gig nothing happens , as it wont let you apply, wont confirm gig is gone , wont even say sorry not available, seem like it only wants you to do the gig where encore pay you not the client, pity because its a great idea
