Grave tips for the one-man band (4)
I believe the answer is:
tomb
'grave' is the definition.
(I know that grave can be written as tomb)
'tips for the one-man band' is the wordplay.
'tips for' indicates taking the first letters (letters at the tips of the words).
The first letters of 'the one man band' is 'TOMB'.
(Other definitions for tomb that I've seen before include "Place of burial, grave or vault" , "Large vault" , "remains here" , "Crypt or grave" , "Burial chamber" .)
