About Neil Armstrong

An experienced, versatile solo acoustic artist who is able to provide idyllic background music, or bring the party to your event.
Guitarist
Milton Keynes
Public liability insurance of £10 million

Neil is a seasoned artist covering styles from Rock, Blues and Pop as well as many styles in-between. He performs a wide variety of gigs from pubs & clubs to cafe's & private functions. Neil can be found playing either solo, as part of a duo all the way through to fronting the successful covers band, MILNER. Although Neil would say he is an Indie lover through and through, he is heaving influenced by artists such as Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, and Steve Marriott. One of Neil’s proudest moments was playing an aftershow party for ‘Wireless’ festival in Finsbury Park. He got so carried away he ‘almost’ smashed up his Gibson Les Paul - luckily it’s still alive and well today.

Thank you for an amazing night. The way you switched from chilled background music to full on party mode was simply awesome!

Customer questions

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

That’s absolutely fine. I understand that things can change, even at the last min. Let’s keep in contact and work around anything that comes our way! :)

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, absolutely - this is all part of the service at no extra cost.

How much time do you need to set up?

I can be set up and ready to go in 15mins. Usually I will set up 1 hour before the performance time. As soon as my PA is set up I can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for the live performance!

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

My set list is crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests have an amazing time. However, I am definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for you and I will always accommodate a few specific requests :)

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely. And I always bring back ups in case of technical issues.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

I am happy to accept a few specific requests. Anything over 2 additional songs would incur a small cost of £15 per song to take into account rehearsal times. Unless I already know the song of course.
