Amazing & Talented group of individuals

I have now hired this group about 4 times at 2 different workplaces and will continue to do so. Not only are they amazingly talented, but they are also so easy to work with. They are prompt with responses; they have always been on time and completely professional at every event. We always get so many compliments when we have them at our events. I cannot recommend them enough.

Excellent breadth of rep, sometimes slow communication

We hired Vilachel for our wedding because, as a string player myself, I know that the most consistently next-best-thing to professionals are high schoolers who are passionate about their craft. (They have all graduated now and I expect that they will likely continue to improve their skills.)

We and our wedding coordinator consistently had some delays in getting in touch with the group via gig salad or email. Eventually we had the most success by texting Andrew.

Communication issues are a minor inconvenience compared to the performance quality and breadth of repertoire list. For our ceremony music we requested somewhat obscure pieces from games and movies we liked and felt matched the theme. They had sheet music for 4/5 already and quickly sourced the remaining one.

The dress rehearsal was a little rough which was partly because one of the violinists had a final exam and had to miss it. Ultimately their performance was beautiful and loved by all.

They also had to make a substitution for one of their players due to a conflict with our wedding date. In my opinion that's not a problem, but rather the fact that we didn't even know that would be happening is a sign of professionalism and demonstrative of how easy they were to work with. They simply took care of it and we didn't have to spare issues like that a thought, which was good in the chaos of wedding planning.

Highly recommended, just make sure to ask them what the best way is to contact them and get contact details for more than one of the players in case one is not available and you have an urgent question.

Booking information

Price range: $500 and up

What to expect

For payment, we ask a half-payment deposit through Gig Salad, and receive the rest of the payment at the end of the event. Our current rate is $500 for the first hour, and $300 per each additional hour. Additional fees include the GigSalad booking fee, a small transportation fee (depending on location). Specific song requests outside of our repertoire may be possible, but will cost an additional fee, ~$30 depending on the length and complexity of the song.

We will work with clients to develop the perfect set list for any event. On the day of, we will arrive one hour before we begin playing. Our typical attire is all black, business professional, though we can adjust to fit the event as requested, to an extent. We will need an area to stash our cases and our personal belongings (usually in a secluded room). After that, we will set up in the designated area and warm-up. At the agreed time, we will begin playing!

Additional booking notes

We will bring our own music stands, however we do not provide any sound systems. If the venue requires amplification to be heard, this must be provided by the venue or the client.
