About / Biography

Maya and Alan are freelance musicians based on the Isle of Wight. After playing together at a wedding in 2024, they decided to form a duo in 2025. As both of them are open to all genre, they play classical, jazz, pop, rock, musical songs and tunes from movie soundtracks.

MayAlan Duo is happy to provide music for weddings, private parties, corporate events, as well as playing in cafés, restaurants, hotels and bars as a one off or on a regular basis.

Arrangements are made to each enquiry. At weddings we can play background music while guests arrive, as well as during a short reception after the ceremony.
You can also request specific songs or pieces for each step of the ceremony, such as Walking the aisle song, signing the register, walking out song, etc.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

Every gig is the best at the time of the gig. 😊🎶

All venues have their unique beauty.


What's your favourite type of event?

We love playing at all sorts of events but weddings are always special because of the requested tunes by the couple.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

We started gigging individually decades ago, both of us performed at hundreds of weddings, parties and events across the UK and beyond. Since we formed our duo so far we mainly performed at wedding ceremonies as well as playing while guests arrived and during reception after the ceremony.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

We are open to all genre, including classical, jazz, pop, rock, musical songs and tunes from movie soundtracks, etc.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We normally arrive 1 hour before the performance to set up. We normally perform 2 x 45 minutes or 2 x 60 minute sets. We’re happy to play a bit longer or shorter but we’ve found that these set times suit us and our audiences best. At weddings, usually there is 30 minutes set while guests arrive, the ceremony. When we play at the reception, the number of sets depends on the length of the reception, and can be more if we’re required for the dinner as well.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, however, we need roof against rain as well as sun. The roof needs to be wider that the space we are taking up. If roof cannot be provided we still might be able to perform at a shaded area. We are not able to perform outside if it is raining even a little bit.


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

The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them. We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 5 songs and we need the notice of that latest 4 weeks before the event.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous customers would describe us as a very talented duo that plays all genre beautifully and getting the audience to sing along.
