What a brilliant band! We booked Michael’s group at a fairly short notice for our afternoon garden party. Michael phoned me twice before the event to check details and discuss our requirements. They arrived early, in plenty of time to set up, and advised on the best place for them to perform. The music was fantastic, they really involved everyone and got people dancing and joining in. They looked and sounded great, and turned the party into a great event. Thank you!

Booking Pippa for our book launch event was one of the best decisions we made! Pippa was absolutely fantastic - and seamless to work with from start to finish. She is super talented, versatile to any music and all the guests loved the vibrant atmosphere Pippa brought with her music. Highly recommend! Thank you, Pippa.

Musicians in London
Depending on what you require, the music can be soft and non-invasive - just enough to compliment the conversation and keep your guests happy; alternatively, you might want a performance where your guests focus on the musician. This works for wedding ceremonies, product launches, fund raisers and more.
Popular Types Musicians
Musicains such as Violinists, Harpists, Pianists and even Bagpipers can be booked for solo performances. If your budget allows consider hiring a group of musicians such as a string quartet to make an even bigger impact.
One of many excellent String Quartets that can be booked to play in London
If you are not sure what type of music to aim for - there are fantastic Lunch Time Concerts available at the Wigmore Hall - a place of sanity in frantic Central London. Their midday programme is varied and always interesting - and offers an opportunity to hear different types of classical music performed by talented soloists, duos, trios and more.
Alternatively, you might enjoy a visit to the V&A Museum in Kensington - their Music Gallery is enchanting and might give you some useful pointers. There are keyboards, guitars, harps and musical instrument from across the world - and the gallery has interactive screens and headphones which enable you to watch the instruments in action.
