MUSIC PORTFOLIO
How does TAPESTRY maintain such a large number of songs from varied musical styles on the playlist??
The musicians in TAPESTRY have over 150 years in combined musical experience. All members have years of both on-the-job and formal musical training. Everyone in the band has worked professionally in a number of different musical genres (rock, soul, jazz, R&B, country, blues, etc.), all members read music, and the band members maintain written charts of each new song, allowing us to pick up new songs very quickly and maintain them in the repertoire.
TAPESTRY custom designs each performance considering the type of event, the number of people, audience demographics (Age range, racial make up, etc.) and requests from the audience. We have successfully entertained for wedding receptions, fraternity parties, corporate dinners/dances, society balls, fund raisers, and in numerous nightclubs. We specialize in being able to play quiet music for a dinner or the initial hour of a wedding reception and then turn around and "rock the house" when it is time for dancing.
Special request songs:
We are often asked if we can do songs by special request. If you would like Tapestry to play a song that is not on our list please let us know when booking the band. Songs that we know or jazz standards that are in our “Fakebooks” can often be accommodated at no charge. Special requests that require a new arrangement for the band are considered on a case by case basis for an additional fee.
