Steve played for our school today. Kids and adults both absolutely loved it! Definitely inspired quite a few people today.

Funeral Music

Music for a funeral will help create a personalised service and pay tribute to a loved one’s life.  Choosing the perfect music to remember a loved one can be challenging, but the right piece can bring peace and calm at a time when it is needed most.

Some people choose live music for funerals, commemorating the life of a family member with soft and poignant pieces of music and some choose uplifting and happy pieces. The choice is completely up to you, and depending on the rules of where the service is being held, there really is no right or wrong.

If you would like to discuss your requirements, please email Stephen by following the link below.

"Hi Stephen, Just want to commend you on your wonderful performance at my Mother's funeral, it really made such a difference to have music at the graveside, it gave us time to reflect and just be in the moment, without being rushed. You played so meaningfully and with such grace and respect.  A wonderful tribute for an amazing lady. Thank you. I wish you well in the future."
