Overview

I play Celtic and Appalachian-influenced folk harp music for weddings, baptisms, memorial services, and other events and special occasions. I can also provide ambient background music for parties and events.
My repertoire, which includes Contemporary and Classical music, is broad. I also play holiday music, and am a Certified Musician Practitioner (CMP).
I look forward to discussing your vision and needs for your upcoming event.

One Word: EXCELLENT!

Elizabeth, arrived on time, and warmly introduced herself to her Host. Her selection of various songs were most enjoyable and many of the guests wanted more information about how to book her for future gigs. She played beyond her appointed time. I would love to invite Elizabeth to return for future performances.

Photos will be available to a few days and will forward them to Ms. Fanning.

Darrah/Javelosa wedding 5/21/22

Elizabeth is an amazing harpist. Her exquisite touch added so much to the ceremony at CrossKeys Vineyards. Elizabeth was very easy to work with. So many people have commented on how beautiful the harp looked on the porch and then once she began playing, it was the perfect touch!!!
