About

A talented and versatile musical artist with an extended repertoire on hand, Brett Smith, also known as The Song Smith, will provide the ideal entertainment for any wedding ceremony, meal, or reception. He is based in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, but he will happily travel to venues in surrounding locales to cover events. Friendly, professional and accommodating, clients will enjoy working with him.

Services offered

Customarily Brett plays two sets of 1-hour acoustic performances for wedding events. He refuses to use backing tracks, ensuring that clients will get the best live music he can offer. If there is a special song request, he will gladly entertain it.

Other services

The Song Smith will also customise options to suit individual clients. Should a client be interested in his bespoke songwriting service, he will gladly answer any enquiries. The customer must simply choose a musical style and provide some information about themselves and their partner, and he will write and record it especially for the couple.

Excelled expectations. We wanted him there for the guests whilst photos were being taken. We specifically requested he changed lyrics to one song which was for my wife and the timing of the song was immense all the guests were up standing and dancing. Thanks Brett highly recommend
