The Glasshouses


On Saturday, March 23rd we were able to be apart of Justin and Jason's wedding by providing ceremony and cocktail music. It was a truly beautiful and touching event from start to finish. The Ceremony started right as the sun set shone into the 14th floor of the Glasshouses lighting up the entire room for a magical moment. The Cocktails were on the 21st floor with beautiful night views of the city creating an ultra chic New York City feel.

6/18 at The Russian Tea Room

Last night we had a great time performing at The Russian Tea Room in Midtown Manhattan. We played two sets, one for cocktails and one for dessert. The repertoire for cocktails was Classical Music which varied from Cinema Paradiso to Moonlight Sonata. For desert protion of the evening, we had a wardrobe change from ivory gowns to black, and switched the music from Classical to Contemporary. Performing Madonnas "Like A Prayer" to Rhianna's "We Found Love," the second set even inspired a few dance moves from the Maitre'D when he realized the String Quartet was playing an arrangement of Katy Perry's' "Fireworks."
