Versatile and delightful
I booked Lisa because we're a union organization and would only hire union musicians and I took my changes. She's been fantastic. I've used her three times now—once just with the xylophone and twice with xylophone and bass. They do fun, upbeat arrangements, excellent musicians, have a great range of standards, keep the levels appropriate for the crowd attending receptions (150-400 people). Lisa is great to work with, very professional, pulls together the other players, deals with the venue, and makes it happen smoothly and easily.

Music to Match the Art at Museum's Events
As Chief Curator of the Triton Museum of Art in Santa Clara I know that just as important as having the highest quality exhibitions and education programs, is setting the right tone at our fundraising events. Without the latter we could not have the former. Lisa Sanchez has played at our Museum fundraising events and set the atmosphere perfectly. More than ambiance, Lisa's skill and talent are so exceptional that our attendees were gifted with a concert above and beyond the art on the walls. She will definitely be back!
