Rachel Groves

Based between Glasgow and Aberdeen, I play at events from weddings and celebration dinners, to functions and funerals. With years of experience, I would love to add a unique and personal touch to your day. A Finalist in the upcoming BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician 2026, I enjoy playing Scottish/Irish traditional, pop covers and classical repertoire. I hold a Masters in Contemporary Performance and Production from Berklee College of Music, Valencia, and a first class degree in Music from University of Edinburgh. Because each event is unique, I am always open to hearing your own ideas for the day and learning new songs. For weddings, I am also able to compose a piece of harp music, which can be played at some point during the ceremony. Please get in touch to discuss how the harp can add a bespoke and memorable touch to your day! “It's rare to find such engaging composition paired with such effortless joy of playing and Rachel has both in spades.” Maeve Gilchrist, Scottish lever harpist “A very gifted musician and performer [with] a spark that only a few people have.” Olga Roman, faculty director at Berklee College of Music, Valencia
