Name: The Serenades

Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)

The Serenades, a gifted pop and jazz duo, feature a blend of jazz-inspired electric guitar, soulful piano, and clear, harmonious male and female vocals.

The Serenades incorporate ideas from a variety of genres, and take on the challenge of arranging all sorts of popular songs from different eras into a uniquely clean, laid-back, yet funky style.

The Serenades are a duo with a difference; moving completely away from the concept of an acoustic guitar and a singer, The Serenades offer something fresh, funky, soulful, and effortlessly cool.

The Serenades were excellent! We had them play at our wedding during the ceremony, drinks and dinner receptions. I would thoroughly recommend them for any occasion. Thank you for making our day so special!! Hamish & Kerry, Wedding

This passionate and soulful duo is dedicated to transforming the 'acoustic duo' genre, steering clear of anything mundane or ordinary (except for their popular renditions of 'jazz standards'). Their extensive collection of video covers spanning various genres showcases their versatility and talent, making it easy for audiences to see and hear their unique capabilities.

Regularly performing for corporate events for major clients in London, Bristol and across The South West, The Serenades also offer tailored wedding entertainment during the ceremony, afternoon reception, and evening reception at weddings.

Available as a full band for parties, soirées, dinner, or anything with enough class!

“After first meeting The Serenades in April this year, I knew they were perfect for our wedding ceremony, we couldn't have been happier that they agreed to play for our intimate wedding in Nailsea. They are sublime, accommodating and so amazingly good, thank you both for making my church entrance a dream and our wedding ceremony so perfect in every way.”

Molly & Brandon, Wedding, March 2022

“Thank you so much for performing at our wedding. We loved the atmosphere you created for our guests from our ceremony recessional, drinks reception leading us to our wedding breakfast. Playing alfresco was a touch and many of our guests enjoyed the sunny happy vibes of your beautiful sound. Thank you again. Highly recommend and would definitely book you again! Two very lovely talented musicians"”

David & Beth, Wedding, February 2022

“I just wanted to drop you a quick message now the dust has settled from the wedding to say you how eternally grateful we will be to you and harry for the wonderful, and superb music you played for our wedding. You both nailed the songs we asked for and gave you to learn at relatively short notice and they couldn’t have been more perfect for the occasion. Every single guest has commented on how impeccable you were and how every song you played from your repertoire complemented the moment and location wonderfully. Thank you again so much. If you are reading this review please book these guys. You won’t regret it.”

Marian & Mike, Wedding, November 2021

“The Serenades were excellent! We had them play at our wedding during the ceremony, drinks and dinner receptions. They learnt the songs that we wanted during our ceremony and did them exactly as we wanted. Throughout the rest of the day they played a assortment of things which fitted perfectly with the feel of the day and was the right level to allow everyone to hear but not to cause any problems with conversation. I would thoroughly recommend them for any occasion. Thank you for making our day so special.”
