Customer questions

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes- we can also perform with a violinist or other instrumentalist for an additional fee.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

“We always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let us know.”

How much time do you need to set up?

Example answer: “We usually set up about 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

“Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event."

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes! We bring our own instruments to play acoustically or electric cellos and PA as well as music and music stands. We require two chairs without arms for performance, but can bring chairs if the venue does not have chairs without arms.
