Roslyn Horsfall - Wedding Musician
Creating a Beautiful, Live Soundtrack for Your Central QLD Love Story
Your wedding day isn't cookie-cutter, and your music shouldn't be either. Whether you envision an elegant, classical instrumental arrangement as you walk down the aisle, or a warm, acoustic vocal cover for your first dance, I work closely with you to curate a live soundtrack that feels completely and uniquely yours.
Based in Emerald, QLD, I bring professional, polished live music directly to your venue. From intimate elopements on family properties to grand coastal celebrations, I travel across Central Queensland and beyond—regularly performing in Rockhampton, Yeppoon, Gladstone, Mackay, and the Whitsundays.
With a Bachelor of Music and years of performance experience, I handle the technical logistics so you can focus entirely on celebrating. Let's create moments your guests will talk about long after the final song.

Options to keep the music live for the entirety of the reception or to provide PA hire for the late night dance sets with tailored playlists to suit your vibe.

Every moment of your day requires a slightly different energy. I can combine any of the above options to ensure seamless music transitions from the moment your guests arrive until the final dance.
Frequently Asked Questions
I am proudly based in Emerald, but my music has no borders! I regularly travel the length of Central and Western Queensland to perform at weddings and events. My core service footprint stretches from Longreach in the west, through the Central Highlands, east to Rockhampton, Yeppoon, and Gladstone, and north to Mackay. If your venue is along this corridor or on a surrounding property, I can easily get to you.
I believe in complete transparency so you can budget for your day with confidence. My travel fees are calculated using a simple, fixed-zone model based on your venue's distance from Emerald. This fee covers vehicle running costs, travel time, and standard accommodation where a safe return drive on the same night isn't practical. I outline all travel fees upfront in your initial quote—there are never any hidden costs or surprise additions later.
Absolutely! I love rustic property and station weddings. I am completely self-sufficient and fully equipped for regional travel. My professional sound systems can adapt to any environment, meaning I can easily set up under a marquee, in an open paddock, or inside a rustic shearing shed.
No power? No worries at all! I have a high-quality battery that allows me to provide flawless audio and live music for your ceremony or canapé hour in completely off-grid locations. Whether you are getting married under a remote outback tree or on a secluded beach, your guests will hear every note perfectly.
I supply all of my own professional musical and audio equipment as standard. For an unforgettable visual touch, I can bring my stunning white mini grand piano shell to your venue. It gives the look and romantic feel of a traditional grand piano but is completely portable, allowing me to set it up just about anywhere you can imagine!
Yes, completely. I hold a current Australian Business Number and comprehensive Public Liability Insurance. Many venues across Central QLD require proof of insurance before a musician can set up, and I am happy to provide my certificate of currency directly to your venue coordinator upon request.
