Weddings & Special Events
Music for your Event
That's Personal, Memorable & Affordable
Celia & Friends will help make your event unforgettable, playing music you'll love all night long.
Celia can sing with piano accompaniment and provide an elegant backdrop to your cocktail hour. Or she can bring her full band and get your guests out on the dance floor during your reception.
Celia will work with you one-on-one to create just the right set list for your event, including special requests. Celia can also emcee your event, making announcements and leading toasts.
Even with our overwhelming numbers you managed to successfully entertain this crowd and produce a very positive element to the evening. You added a lot to this celebration.
The Band that Works for You
Celia & Friends includes some of the finest musicians from the Boston area. The band can range from a duo to a sextet, complete with guitar and sax, singer, keyboard, bass, and drums.
Pictured are (l-r) Christian Bausch, bassist, Dave Jamrog, drummer, Celia Slattery, vocalist, and Mark Shilansky, keyboard player. (please note: band personnel subject to change).
The Right Music for Your Event
Celia has an extensive repertoire including;
- Swing and standards from the 30's and 40's by composers such as Duke Ellington, the Gershwins, and Cole Porter.
- Latin jazz and Bossa Nova
- Pop favorites from the 60's to today (like Carole King, Sting, Van Morrison, Sheryl Crow, Norah Jones, Sarah Bareilles)
- Motown classics (Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye)
I have never heard the song ‘The Rose’ sung so beautifully as at our wedding...you have an incredible voice.
