NOT YOUR TRADITIONAL SOLOIST!

Watch the videos to see why.

ONE MAN WITH THE SOUND OF A FULL BAND! - Bradley Cowtan is an unforgettable solo live music act that makes your wedding event truly special. He is a dynamic 'one-man band' who delivers the sound and energy of a full group... all by himself!

NO PRE-RECORDED BACKING TRACKS!

Armed with a 'loop pedal', multiple instruments and a soulful voice, Bradley builds rich, energetic, layered performances in real-time, blending rhythm, melody, and harmony of the songs you know and love, right before your eyes. Live looping not only sounds incredible, but it's also a captivating show that guests love to watch. Every performance is live, authentic, and full of energy.

Based in the UK and performing full-time nationwide, Bradley brings a professional, polished sound with a personality that makes guests feel right at home. With years of experience entertaining crowds at weddings, private parties, and live venues, he knows how to read the room and tailor each set to fit the mood, from stripped-back love songs to a high-energy dance floor.

Expect a crowd-pleasing set that spans decades and genres - from Chuck Berry, Oasis, Elvis, all the way to Billie Eilish, Ed Sheeran, The White Stripes, Coldplay, and more. Classic hits, modern favourites, and a few unexpected gems all get the one-man-band treatment, building up beats, basslines, harmonies, and solos into a full-band experience... all performed live and looping in the moment.

Bradley offers a versatile performance setup that works for intimate gatherings and large venues alike. He provides all his own professional-grade sound equipment and can set up almost anywhere as long as there is power! (Although not a dealbreaker).

What sets Bradley apart? It's more than just the gear - it's the creativity, the musicianship, and the connection with the audience. Every performance is personal, passionate, and tailored to make your event stand out. You can rest assured knowing that you are in good hands and relax into your day.

Additional services: Bradley also offers a DJ service after the live performance, so you can conveniently book Bradley for your entire evening of entertainment. With a seamless transition between sets that will leave no downtime and usually be more cost-effective than having a live act AND a DJ separately, this is the ultimate convenience.

If you're looking for a solo act with a big sound, professional attitude, and a guaranteed good time, Bradley Cowtan is the one-person band you've been searching for. Now taking bookings across the UK. Get in touch to check availability and make your event unforgettable.

A Rocking One Man Band

We hired Bradley for my daughter and future son in law’s engagement party. It was like having a modern version of a one man band. Bradley is an amazing looping artist and performer. I would highly recommend him for any event. In fact, we’ve booked him as part of the entertainment for the wedding next year. My only tip for Bradley would be for him to find a look with his stage clothes. You really need to look the part too Bradley. Once you have that, then you’re all perfect.

Fantastic performance and great all around service

We first saw Bradley at our friends 30th birthday party and we knew we wanted to book him for our wedding. His performance was captivating and my little girl was obsessed. Bradley made our wedding day feel so special with his live performance and music services. He sang our first dance so which brought a tear to my ear. It couldn’t have been more perfect. We will see him next year at our next family event. I would highly recommend if anyone was looking for his services!

Talented gent

I organised a music festival for charity and Bradley signed up to play. Easily the most talented performer we had on the day (apart from myself obviously) and a true gentleman. The things this man can do with a guitar, a keyboard and a microphone is truly extraordinary. He is a pleasure to be around and gets the crowd involved in the best way possible. Book him and have a great night!

David’s big birthday bash

Bradley performed at my husbands birthday bash and he was brilliant. We were a mixed age group - he had everyone dancing all night - he even let my husband sing - very badly 😂 All the guests talked about him after the party - about how good he was - made a great day even more special - Thankyou Bradley
