Overview

We are accomplished performers based out of Los Angeles. We've been playing across Southern California and beyond for nearly ten years. We are known for our stunning vocals and acoustic arrangements of a mix of classic standards, current covers and originals. We are a perfect fit for wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner music sets. We frequently perform at weddings, private parties, and the occasional showcase of our original music. Will travel.

Just perfect

Leeann and George were incredible. They were perfect for our micro wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. They learned a couple of our favorite songs and played them pitch perfectly. We hope to have them at another event at some point in the future!

Set a fantastic mood for our wedding ...

So great! Professional & easy to work with! Arrived early, accommodated all of our requests, and sounded amazing-- super strong vocals!
They played for our ceremony and cocktail hour & my only complaint is I didn't get to enjoy them more because we were pulled away for pictures. Highly recommend.
