REVIEWS
"They were able to do a special song for my walk down the aisle that was a surprise for the groom - it was his favorite part of the entire wedding." - Allyson C.

"They were such a special part of our ceremony and literally just what we needed for that extra special, intimate touch." - Hailey B.

"Honestly, this duet made for the most amazing wedding ceremony we could have ever dreamed of." - Zach R.

OUR UNIQUE APPROACH
Since we began playing together in 2014, our duo has evolved into an ensemble unlike any other. While we understand that performers are at various levels of musicianship and all levels can move audiences in a meaningful way, we take the business of music making very seriously. This is not our hobby. We don’t just do this for fun.

We have invested our lives, our time and effort, into studying, practicing and performing music. We took private lessons as kids, we got music degrees at some of the finest music schools in the nation with some of the finest teachers, and we’ve gone on to perform hundreds of times, honing our craft. We continue to learn and grow and refine ourselves as musicians and ensemble players every day.

For us, using music as a vehicle to connect people to powerful memories and emotions is our work. This is why we do what we do, and this is why music matters so deeply.

LOCATIONS
We are located in Scottsdale and are happy to play for weddings in the Phoenix metropolitan area. We also play for events in Sedona, Tucson, Flagstaff & anywhere around the state of Arizona!

WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!
We look forward to hearing about what music you'd like at your wedding! Please do contact us!

We wrote to them...Thanks to you two. You filled our space with the magic of music. It was wonderful….enjoyed by all. Ted and I were so pleased it with the music and your mastery of the notes….loved it!

They are talented musicians and there was wonderful flow to the music. We allowed them to put together the music for us and we were thrilled.

We heard about SoSco from a friend. We wanted to have live music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Laura was our contact person and the first time I met her was the day of the wedding. All of our communication was via email and she was always quick to respond. They were able to do a special song for my walk down the aisle that was a surprise for the groom - it was his favorite part of the entire wedding. They were perfect and I would recommend them to anyone. My biggest regret is that i didn't get to hear them for the coctail hour. We are still receiving compliments on their performance.

I had the opportunity to work with the "Duo" this summer. They were tremendous! The sound was incredible and professional, yet they were able to remain flexible and go with the moment. Before the ceremony we were talking about the ceremony to include the flow and mood that the couple wanted to exhibit. The musicians made a last minute change that fit perfectly and the couple loved it. I would highly recommend them.
