About The Mirrors

The Mirrors is a Motown, Soul and Pop duo available to spread good vibes at your special event!
Soul & Motown band
London
Public liability insurance of £10 million

We started working together in July 2022. Azu, a singer who has previously supported UK RnB and Soul singers Lemar and Gabrielle, was initially looking for a guitarist to perform at a wedding gig with him. The success of this performance led us to decide to start a project together. We have played at various events, including weddings, birthday parties, and bars in London and nearby areas. Our main music genres are Motown, R&B, and Soul, but we're also open to song requests in other styles. We enjoy performing songs originally sung by powerful female singers like Whitney Houston and Gloria Gaynor, which is something that our clients may not expect. We can also perform as a trio with a saxophonist, percussionist, or keyboard player. Our previous clients were impressed with how we could read the room and customize the setlist according to the vibes. We love interacting with our audience and adding energy and good vibes to our performances. Our duo is perfect for wedding meals or welcoming drinks, but we can also get your guests up and dancing. We have also played some live shows for Azu's original music at Green Note in Camden, St Pancras Old Church in King's Cross, Glasshouse in Newcastle and City Varieties in Leeds. Some notable venues we have performed in for weddings include The Hoxton Hotel, The Barbican Conservatory, and The Hackney Coffee Company. You can also find Azu's original music on Spotify. All the videos you see on our profile are not lip-synched or pre-recorded beforehand; we like to keep things real so that you know what to expect ;)

100% would recommend to anyone looking for an incredible acoustic duo who are supportive from the moment you book right til the end of their final set. Easy comms and arrived with no delays, quick setup and really great sound. The Mirrors were able to read the room and did a fantastic job managing the energy with their sets. They even played our song for our first dance which worked out perfectly! Could not recommend them enough.

Filippo and Azu were absolutely fantastic. Myself and my wife booked The Mirrors for our wedding day, the most important of our lives and the band did not disappoint in anyway. Communication was great leading up to the wedding. They arrived on time, looking great and then played the most perfect set with wonderful enthusiasm and soul during dinner. There is so much to admire about the talent that both Filippo and Azu possess. Don't wait. Book them. You won't regret it. Hope to see you both again. Jon

We booked The Mirrors for our wedding and couldn’t be happier with our choice! The combination of Fillipo’s skill on his guitar and Azu’s soulful vocals created the perfect atmosphere. Performing both, a ‘chilled set’ for our welcome drinks and a ‘more upbeat set’ to get the party started, they helped make the best memories on our special day. The Mirrors were very easy to communicate with and self-sufficient. Thank you both so much!! We 100% recommend! Sol & Ellie.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Our clients love how we can read the room and tailor our setlist and performance according to the vibes.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Hoxton Hotel in Southwark, Hackney Coffee Company, St Pancras Old Church, The Bugle in Southampton, The Barbican Conservatory, The Green Note in Camden, Robin Nest Hill in Hertford, The Glasshouse International Centre for Music in Newcastle and City Varieties Music Hall in Leeds.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Will the singer be the same as who I see in the videos?

Yes, it will be the same singer. We will let you know if the singer is unavailable. We have pre-auditioned 'dep' musicians available in case a band member is unavailable. You can be confident that all our players are of a very high level. If you are not willing to proceed with a dep singer, you will be refunded.

Do you have different line-up options?

Our line-up is as follows: guitar and vocals but if you wish we can add an extra band member for a revised fee. We can add a percussionist/drummer, keyboardist, saxist, cellist or bass player. If an extra band member is needed, we need at least a month of advanced notice. We are happy to discuss what line-up option works best for your event beforehand.

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

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

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and we offer this service for free. We usually prepare a Spotify playlist for your event, otherwise, send us a link. We don't provide DJ service after our performance.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up about 45 minutes before the performance time. As soon as our equipment is set up, we can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and prepare your guests for our live performance!

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

Yes, you can pick the songs you like. We craft the set list based on what works best to ensure guests have an amazing time. We also tailor the setlist during our performance based on the general vibes.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Yes, our PA is included in your quote.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If you want us to learn a song not included in our song list, please inform us at least a month in advance. We are happy to learn up to three songs, and the final decision on which song to perform will be made by the singer.
