Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We set up 20-30 minutes before the performance time.

We can perform outside if the temperature is between 15-30 degrees. We need shade from the sun and protection from rain, wind or other weather extremities that may damage our instruments.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We will play the music that clients request.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Clients describe our performances as delightful, enjoyable, endearing and classy.


Is there a stage? and how big is the performance area?

Stages are of course very nice! However, it's fine to have musicians on the floor in a designated area that is large enough for the group.
