Erin Baker Harpist

d are still talking over a month later. I loved the variety of music on her repertoire. Especially all the fun stuff that you’ve probably never thought of it being played on a harp! The two new songs we requested were also rather unconventional: One by Metallica and Round and Round by Ratt. Our ceremony also included Simple Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd and Nothing Else Matters by Metallica. And let me tell you. ERIN. WAS. SHREDDING. IT. UP. She played such a beautiful version of each song and so many guests immediately recognized each song. I’m still listening to and loving the samples she sent me before the wedding!

ur ceremony. That's when we fell upon Erin, and we're so glad we did. We booked her about a year in advanced and then about a couple months before the wedding we had a video call to go over the timeline of our wedding day, the type of music we're looking for, and other details. She was so chill and easy to talk to! She had her harp with her on the call, so she was able to give us a little taste of what to expect with certain songs we were wondering about. This was so helpful when making decisions! Erin was on time and reliable during our wedding day. We had a wedding band for our reception who also amplified our ceremony, and she worked super well with them to coordinate where to set up and get amped up. She sounded ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! We had the groom, family, and bridal party walk down to Paradise by Coldplay, and I walked down to Yellow by Coldplay. Then she played our requested song, Better Together by Jack Johnson, on the way out. All of it sounded absolutely magical. We were out taking pictures during cocktail hour so we didn't get to hear her play then, but all of our guests were incredibly impressed! We will be recommending Erin to literally everyone we know getting married!! Thanks for everything Erin!!! (Photo by Holly Croft Photography)

e just to review our experience with Erin during the ceremony, that wouldn't give you a full picture. My daughter sang at the wedding. She has a lovely voice, but is not a professional musician. A couple weeks before the wedding, I brought her to rehearse with Erin and they had my daughter's voice coach on video call. Erin was so gracious, encouraging and flexible. They worked out exactly how the music would go with the processional, and Erin adapted to the vocals. They also did a song together during the cocktail hour. Erin also was willing to work with the trumpet player, whom she didn't know, and the result was truly beautiful. We had a wedding coordinator who was trying to get us to go with a cello and violin, but we listened to the processional music played on several different instruments and knew that the harp is what we wanted. So glad I insisted in this case! If you haven't considered a harp for your ceremony music, I highly recommend that you listen to what it would sound like on harp and that if you like it, go with Erin. She is a delight to work with.
