For weddings, the band can play elegant solo violin music for the prelude and ceremony; jazz, swing, tango, latin, and bossa novas for the cocktail and dinner hour; as well as lively, crowd-engaging funk, rock, blues, latin, ska, and celtic dance music for the reception.

For corporate events and private parties, the band can play background, atmospheric music or upbeat, danceable tunes in the variety of genres represented on the MUSIC SAMPLES page.

The repertoire does not include dreaded numbers, such as “Macarena” or “The Electric Slide”, but instead focuses on tasteful, traditional styles and jazz standards. Performances, including the engaging M.C. skills of the violinist, provide an enjoyable, comfortable, stress-free environment that allows you to be a guest at your own party.

The Wine and Roses Band is dedicated to their primary goal — to give you a soundtrack for your special day, and to help you create memories that will last a lifetime.

The band’s instrumental line-up includes violin (with varying mandolin and guitar), bass, and drums. All of our musicians have studied composition and performance at prestigious music schools across the country, and have been working as professional studio musicians and performers for 15+ years.

The Wine and Roses Band has performed thousands of events across the country. Based out of Los Angeles, they regularly play in New York, Boston, San Francisco, San Deigo, Portland, Seattle, Tucson, Phoenix, and Hawaii!

Their love for music from around the world surfaces in their classy and well-rounded performances, touching on tango, waltz, blues, bluegrass, swing, classical, gypsy, jazz, and celtic music.
