On average, a professional R&B vocalist costs $200-$500. The exact price will vary depending on your location, the length of the performance, their setup, and their skill level. An R&B singer performing with a backing track may charge less than one performing with a live band.
R&B vocalists typically perform a wide variety of music that falls under the rhythms and blues genre. This may include classic R&B, soul, funk, contemporary R&B, neo-soul, and blues music. Artists may have different specialties, so it’s important to discuss which genre of R&B you would like for your event prior to booking.
An R&B singer should be able to deliver a powerful and emotive performance, providing a dynamic and engaging musical experience for any audience. They will often curate a setlist to fit the performance length you requested, whether that means performing one song or twenty. Keep in mind that for longer performances, your singer will need to take periodic breaks to rest their voice.
Most R&B performers will have a predetermined setlist which you will be able to view prior to their performance and have the opportunity to select songs that you would like them to include. Some artists may be willing to take requests as long as they have time to learn the new music, however, this may add to the cost of the booking. If you have any specific requests, they should be discussed before the booking takes place.
Each R&B vocalist will have their own setup and performance style. Some singers might use backing tracks, but many will perform live with instruments – either playing one themselves or with a musician accompanying them. You can even book a full R&B group if you have the budget for it!
Some R&B performers may require specific equipment or accommodations, such as a microphone, sound system, or dressing room. Be sure to discuss these requirements with the vocalist prior to booking to be sure you can meet their needs.
R&B music is perfect for all types of events! An R&B vocalist can add an element of romance to weddings and anniversary parties or help provide an upbeat atmosphere at corporate events, festivals, birthday parties, and nightclubs.
It’s a good idea to listen to the vocalist’s music and watch videos of their performances to get a sense of their style and stage presence. You should also look at past reviews to learn more about their professionalism and performance quality prior to booking.
