Overview

City Six Strings was founded in 2020 by violinist Sarah Becker and cellist McKinley Glasser. Since then, we’ve grown to accommodate performances at 200-300 events per year throughout Ohio. Though we specialize in weddings, we also play for fundraisers, house parties, corporate events, and any function that could use the sound of strings (all of them!)

We believe in creating the perfect soundtrack for your special day. With our modular ensemble and customizable playlists, we’ve found that strings can work for any event and musical taste.

As always, feel free to reach out on our website, social media, or email. Cheers!

Absolutely wonderful!

City Six Strings was absolutely wonderful to work with. They were quick to respond and worked around ceremony difficulties with elegance. They are extremely talented, professional, and took my ceremony to the next level. They understood the assignment!

Above and Beyond

Sarah was amazing to work with and was very flexible with the unpredictable weather we were facing. I highly recommend to all that wasn't a classy feel to their wedding.

An absolute highlight of our wedding!

Booking live strings for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made, and they completely exceeded our expectations! They went above and beyond by learning special custom songs for our ceremony and cocktail hour, which made the day feel so personal and unique.

Throughout the planning process, their communication was thorough, prompt, and completely stress-free—they coordinated every detail to ensure a flawless execution on the big day. Our guests are still talking about how wonderful the music was. In fact, I've already recommended them to a friend who is getting married next year. If you want gorgeous live music and true professionals, hire them!

Best addition to our wedding

They set the most beautiful tone for our wedding ceremony. Got so many compliments on how excellent our string duo was. Did a great job of using my custom song list and adjusting each song in the ceremony to be perfectly coordinated with what was happening. The processional songs were played so elegantly, the recessional song played in a way that got guests excited. Can't recommend them enough! Worth every penny.

An outdoor wedding and reception

We had the most lovely experience with City Six Strings where they played before he cremony and then did a the ceremony entrance and the string versions of Crystal by Stevie Nicks for the brides entrance and then Metallica's For whom the Bell tolls for their recessional.
This quartet then provided another hour or so of a variety of songs. The guests raved how lovely it was to have the live music both before the ceremony then during and again afterwards. It truly made for an amazing wedding day!!

About

City Six Strings was founded in 2020 by violinist Sarah Becker and cellist McKinley Glasser. Since then, we’ve grown to accommodate performances at 200-300 events per year throughout Ohio. Though we specialize in weddings, we also play for fundraisers, house parties, corporate events, and any function that could use the sound of strings (all of them!)

Our pool of 30 musicians are classically trained, holding degrees and certificates from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, Eastman School of Music, Cleveland Institute of Music, Carnegie Mellon University, and more. Despite our classical backgrounds, we are comfortable in any genre; our members have appeared with acts from the Trans-Siberian Orchestra to Machine Gun Kelly to Michael Bublé on stages from Severance Hall to London’s West End.

We believe in creating the perfect soundtrack for your special day. With our modular ensemble and customizable playlists, we’ve found that strings can work for any event and musical taste.

Additional booking notes

We arrive at the event up to 30 minutes early to set up.

We will need armless chairs equal to the number of performers.

Unfortunately, we cannot perform in precipitation or in conditions below 60F
