About

John Wilder is a professional singer and guitarist based in the North West, performing live music for weddings, private events and corporate functions.

Using a loop pedal to build rhythm, texture and backing parts live on stage, John creates a fuller sound than you’d expect from a solo acoustic act. His extensive songlist spans reggae, country, pop, rock, Motown, R&B and plenty more, giving him the flexibility to suit a wide range of audiences.

From stripped-back ceremony songs and relaxed drinks reception sets to upbeat evening sing-alongs, John Wilder brings a warm, versatile performance that can be shaped around the feel of the day.

We were absolutely delighted to have John sing at our wedding ceremony and drinks reception. His voice was incredible and created the perfect atmosphere throughout the day. So many of our guests commented on how amazing he was. Professional, friendly, and talented from start to finish – we couldn’t recommend him highly enough!
