A sophisticated and approachable string band. They wield a wide variety in their repertoire, and they learned a song outside of that repertoire for our special occasion then performed it well. I have only positive things to say about this band.

It would be hard for me to overstate what Plum Blossom Music added to our Wedding event!
Throughout the planning process we worked with Peter to find a flow between the Ceremony & the Cocktail hour—each creating different feelings but with seamless continuity. Peter was very accessible, responsive and facile in his thinking with us about what we were hoping to create and how we could do that within our budget.
While he was a consummate professional he was also very friendly with a grounding influence!
Clearly, Peter knows a lot about the issues of amplification for his music and, with the Ceremony being outside and the Cocktail Hour inside, that was important ! He joined our ‘team’ and was helpful in thinking about additional mics for the ceremony and the placement of his group at the Venue too.
All that being said, those were important practical issues I knew little about before this Wedding Event so it gave me confidence that he was paying attention to the details, took pride in what he was doing and that I could trust him.
Then there was the music—-It was simply beautiful.
Whether the Trio was performing the Ceremony’s processional (which they’ve likely done 1000 times) or a quick beat “hillbilly” piece during the Cocktail Hour, they were engaged, vibrant and fun to have as part of our event!
I believe that when anyone does their work artfully, they can make it look easy!
These musicians made it look easy—they were artists from start to finish!

The Early Grove String Band played at our outdoor brunch reception. It's hard for me me to put into words exactly what they added to the day but I do know that the day wouldn't have been the same or nearly as special without them there. The music was lovely and perfect for the kind of event we had, the musicians had a really nice energy about them (it felt like having friends there), and they seamlessly added to and elevated the event.

The entire exploration and booking process with Peter was very pleasant and easy- Peter provided enough information about the different musical groups for me to easily make a decision.

Highly recommend for any event!
