Which artists have you been most influenced by?
We love all music, but especially love folk and in particular are huge fans of the Danish String Quartet.
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
We performed for BBC West Midlands at their awards ceremony for the BBWM Royal Television Society in November 2018, held at Birmingham Town Hall.
Do you have different line-up options?
Our line up is as follows: 2 violins, viola and cello. We think that this is the best ensemble to showcase our set list, and prefer to take bookings as a quartet. If one of us is unavailable on the date you request and the remaining players make up a viable trio, we will take the booking for a reduced 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, and if we are available we will adjust our fees accordingly to accommodate any extra time.
How much time do you need to set up?
We will arrive at least 30 minutes prior to the start of your booking to set up our instruments and music stands.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Of course you can! We completely tailor our set list to what you would like. We are also happy to choose a set list based on genres you like.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes! All we do need are four armless chairs to sit on to play.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
If a song or piece isn't included in our repertoire list there may still be a chance we already know it. If you have a special request we are happy to do this for you. There is an additional fee of £50 for this to cover the cost of the music and rehearsal time.
