Hebden Bridge based duo, The String Witches, are Jen Trott (violin & vocals) and Julia Farrants (cello). Between us we have 50 years performing experience, playing Classical, Folk, Blues and Pop music in a range of line ups & settings. We love playing together and the two instruments create the most gorgeous harmonies. We are sensitive to the requirements and requests for a personalised occasion, and can do your own favourite songs or tunes in a sublime string arrangement for the ceremony or party afterwards. We are also experienced in performing at sensitive occasions such as funerals and life celebration events.
