String Theory
Jazz & Swing
- North West (willing to travel)
Biography
String Theory are a wonderfully chaotic gypsy jazz band, performing your favourite pop, soul and rock classics in their own inimitable style.
Formed back in 2014, they started out as a guitar duo but quickly made an impact in the North West and expanded their line-up into a variety of combos that now includes vocals, bass, drums and divine harmonies.
Renowned for their frantic energy and heavily improvised live shows mixed with intricately arranged medleys, String Theory are guaranteed to bring a highly unique and memorable performance to your wedding.
As well as barnstorming evening sets, the band are happily and readily available for hire as a more traditional background music act for daytime/garden receptions.
