Formed in January 2018, the Aeolos Duo is a lively ensemble specialising in Jazz, Latin and Bossa Nova music for any occasion. With the soulful sounds of the saxophone and the rhythmic grooves of the guitar, the Aeolos Duo provides an elegant sound which would add a touch of sophistication to any event. Craig Carri - Guitar Since completing his BMus degree at the University of Hull in 2012, Craig has been working in London's busy music scene as a professional musician, finding work as a performer, musical director, composer, and tutor. Craig has been performing live music since the age of 15, playing many pubs and night clubs in Dublin and Kildare, Ireland. In 2009, Craig began his studies at the University of Hull to further his musical knowledge and abilities. He gained a wealth of experience playing with many jazz and pop/rock/soul bands, performing music by Steve Reich and Phillip Glass, in classical guitar ensembles, musical theatre productions such as Rent, Alice in Wonderland & more. During this time, Craig also performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for three consecutive years, two of which were complete sell-out shows. For the most recent of these Fringe shows, Craig was appointed Assistant Musical Director, leading many of the band's rehearsals, which ended up winning a NSDF Commendation for Musicianship. Craig is now based in London, becoming a part of the local and national music scene, and tutoring around the city. He performs in London's jazz venues such as the Vortex, Ronnie Scott's and in local pubs and bars.

She has gained orchestral experience playing with groups such as the National Youth Orchestra, Piccadilly Symphony Orchestra, and Orchestra Vitae, performing at notable venues including The Sage Gateshead, St John's Smith Square and Royal Festival Hall.

We had a slighter older audience at our wedding and wanted something with a more sophisticated feel. Initially we thought the Aeolos Duo would be nice for background music, but as it turned out, our guests were keen to pull up a seat to watch what turned into a private concert. It's a real credit to these two fabulous musicians! Also two very nice people!
