Weddings.

Many couples booking a ceilidh for the evening of their big day  also book musicians to play for their guests during the meal.

We are classically trained and will play classical music if preferred.

Don't want the expense or setting up of a dance ?

Book a single musician to play on one instrument or a variety of instruments. We can serenade your guests with a variety of styles. Choose your favourite music or leave it up to us.

At the moment I am getting lots of bookings for

 old time romantic music and light classics on

Some have found that this gives them the

 Live Music

they want but leaves more

time and money

available for something else.

It will keep everyone entertained during those tricky times whilst the guests are

arriving, being fed or waiting for the photographer

Old time, romantic solo piano perfectly suits an indoor occasion if you are having a dance later as it makes an ideal contrast to the hectic fun of the dance.

A real piano is best but, if the venue doesn’t have a piano, I can bring an electronic one.

We know how important the day is so

we always dress for the occasion.

I will play more modern piano music if required but most seem to find that the old time music is more relaxing and suits the occasion better.
