Arabella are Lisa & Rami, a professional acoustic duo, playing heartfelt covers of pop anthems, folk tunes and jazz standards. Music is in Lisa's blood; born to parents working in the performing arts industry and having grown up in a household where her grandmother’s motto “every house should have a piano” was taken very seriously. Lisa draws her inspiration from a medley of different sounds. From Amy Winehouse to Bill Withers and Disclosure, you can hear the subtle notes of soul, jazz, electro and RnB flowing into the tracks.  Rami Radi is a musician & producer from South London, who has been performing in various guises since first picking up the guitar as a student with too much time on his hands! He has since worked as a session guitarist and songwriter with acts as varied as Joseph J. Jones & Royce Da 5’9”.  Together, the duo’s stunning vocals and gorgeous guitar work will add a touch of warmth and sophistication to any occasion.

“We loved Lyrebirds! They played at the reception of our wedding and we were delighted they took part of our special day. The way they performed ‘Make You Feel My Love’ was truly unique and capturing - we are so glad we got it all on tape. If you want a band that cares about making your wedding day as special as you do you should book Lyrebirds”
