Chris Comhaill – Full Songlist

Please find below my full repertoire, encompassing ceremony music, drinks reception music, corporate events, and more. This songlist is made up of songs I have played in the past for weddings/events and firm favourites that regularly feature in my current reception setlist.

I am thrilled to work with all of my wedding music clients to curate the perfect repertoire for your big day, and consultation on your ceremony music is included in all packages offered.

Please note that I am not limited to what is listed here - if there is a particular song you would like me to play, I can accommodate your request and will specially prepare the musical arrangement for you!

Yes, I can arrange and learn any new pieces that you would like for your ceremony. Because I am creating new instrumental guitar arrangements every time and not just learning a song in the typical fashion, it is a time consuming process. Therefore I will arrange a maximum of 2 new pieces at no extra cost. A small charge is applied for every new piece after that.

Yes, I provide a sample setlist and an overview of the format of the ceremony. I also provide suggestions and guidance on how we can shape your repertoire. For drinks receptions and parties I will include and omit certain styles/songs as you request to ensure the repertoire matches the mood perfectly.

Yes.

I charge for travel outside of a certain radius from my home. The cost quoted at the outset will include travel and there are no hidden extras.

Yes, during the summer months and provided it is not either cold or wet. I require some form of shelter to fully cover my equipment in the event of a sudden shower (this is Ireland after all!). The venue needs to provide an outside power source for sound equipment. If you choose to have your ceremony and/or drinks reception outside, make sure you have a backup plan!

Yes. I have a powerful state-of-the-art amplifier P.A. system. I also bring a spare amplifier to every wedding in the event of any technical problems. To date I have never needed it though.

Usually just in the privacy of my own home! What I offer is world-class concert level guitar performance. However I also work with a range of singers and other instrumentalists. If you would like to add a vocalist (male or female) or another instrument (fiddle, cello, piano, saxophone, double bass, second guitarist, jazz trio, etc) I can provide wonderful options as part of a package - just enquire for more details. Lastly, though I am not a professional vocalist, I have a limited singing set which I sometimes offer if the couple desire in select circumstances during drinks receptions. This is more of a sing-song format where the crowd can join in. Feel free to enquire and I can send a video sample.
