Lori Andrews / JazHarp Records

From the minute I met Lori in her home, I knew that I was going to go with her and her husband Bart. They are the most sincere people, inviting me to listen to a sample of their music so that I could get a better idea of what they were about. The only song I was sure about using in my ceremony was Pachebel's Canon in D for the bridal walk. Upon meeting them, I cried to their beautiful harp and acoustic bass of the song choice I was certain of. They were really understanding, with Bart kindly handing me the tissue box:) After that, they played for me lots of genres from classical to more contemporary, just to give me their range that I could choose from. Having my wedding in my parent's backyard, I was able to see from the master bedroom all the guests coming in. I could not have been happier welcoming them into the magical world that Lori and Bart created. Their music from prelude to recessional to "funky" happy hour was a highlight, something that my guests shared with me was the most touching, perfect way to experience a wedding. Lori and Bart are professionals in their field being amazing, talented musicians to being the most down to earth people, the way you yearn for neighbors to be. Music is an extremely important, if not the most important, aspect of a wedding ceremony. There is nothing better than knowing you have complete trust in the music. Especially when the music is full of beating hearts, full of the same love you would like to portray on your special day. They are a must have at any wedding!

I love Lori. She is awesome, funny, and amazingly talented. My one regret is that I didn't have any time to hang out with her on our wedding day. If you want to work with with the best, get in touch with her.

Lori was amazing perfection!! ;)ANT

Lori was such a pleasure to work with! The way she plays the harp is divine, you feel the love she puts into each song. She had some great ideas that really made our ceremony extra special. I can't wait to use her for another special event. She simply creates magic in the air.

It was a little pricy for only an hour and a half, but the pricing was more competitive than other's I researched. My husband and I were able to select all of the music ourselves for the entire ceremony. They provide a website for you to listen to clips of the selection they play which may choosing the music so much easier.

Lori Andrews was the perfect complement to our wedding! He was so easy to work with, we spoke over the phone and via email before the wedding and helped us set up our song selections and processional.He came, played the music for the ceremony and the cocktail hour then slipped out without being noticed. Not only is he a professional he is truly a genuinely nice person and very friendly.

Our Wedding was a very special event for us. We took great pains to make sure that our family and guest would be well taken care of regarding food and beverage. Although everyone appreciated the food and drink the highlight of the evening was the music played by Lori and Bart. They are wonderful people and very, very talented artist. Our every request for special music was honored and the other music they choose to play fit so well with the diverse gathering of people who attend our wedding.We are truly fans of Lori and Bart not just because of the wonderful time they provided our guest. Their music is something we will seek opportunities to enjoy live as often as possible.If you are looking to make your wedding special.....Lori Andrews and her Harp is something you will never forget

Thank you Lori for providing our family with the most heavenly music for our very special day. We received so many compliments from our guests. We really liked the song "Pachelbel Canon in D" also, we appreciate the great communication between you and my daughter... she was very impressed.Thank you again,Marty and Bobbie Mellor

Lori was very responsive when I sent her an email requesting to play @ our reception in a short notice. Even if she already had a commitment that same day and almost the same time, we were able to come up with a time that she can squeeze us in her schedule. Having heard and seen her in some of her concerts, her music was the only one I thought I'd like to have at our wedding reception. We would love to have her longer but playing for us for an hour was well worth having her. Not only was the music great, she has a very accomodating and friendly personality that it was a pleasure having her.

Lori was a pleasure to work with and very personable. We enjoyed suggesting the music we wanted along with her recommendations to arrive at the perfect ceremony music. Lori and her husband Bart played a collection of classical and modern pieces for a garden wedding and we relished in their playing, they certainly received rave reviews from a gathering of musicians attending. Lori and Bart were so gracious and delightful and we loved seeing Lori get jazzy with a contemporary peice as our daughter and groom walked back down the aisle as husband and wife. I highly recommend them, they were the perfect addition to a perfect wedding.

Lori Andrews and Bart Samolis played the music for our ceremony and cocktail reception. They were a delight! They are both wonderful musicians, ourselves being professional musicians. They not only played beautifully which made our ceremony perfect, but were so easy to work with, helping us pick songs that were slightly untraditional. Then they really rocked out playing cool jazz for the cocktails which totally changed the mood and got us started for our reception party. Thanks Lori and Bart! Hope and Tom Hynes

Lori Andrews is not only an incredible artist, she is an incredible person. We gave her some music selections that were not in her play list and she played them beautifully. Every aspect of working with Lori was very easy. I will definitely use her again when planning other events.

Lori played the harp, and Bart played the bass and flute during our wedding ceremony. Having live music during the ceremony makes such a memorable difference, it is completely worth it. They were both so helpful with picking out the music and telling us about our different options. They are both very professional and you can tell they really care about making your wedding special. The music was beautiful and everything turned out perfect!

Lori Andrews and Bart Samolis provided the ceremony music of harp and flute which was beautiful. They played several requested traditional songs. They then provided the music for our enterance into the reception. They played Jazz Harp and Bass to a number of songs that you would not expect from a harp and bass! I got comments from several of the guests on how great they were! On top of the high quality music, they were also very easy to work with and were very accomodating to requests.

Lori Andrews and Bart Samolis provided the music for our wedding ceremony as well as during cocktails at our reception. They traveled quite a distance to accommodate us, bringing with, their talents - second to none! The ceremony music was simply beautiful, and the cocktail music, both jazzy and original - everything we could've hoped for! More than five years later, we still hear compliments from our guests - Lori and Bart, we can not thank you enough! You labor over every detail to make your wedding perfect, but, at the end of the party, it's the music that makes it memorable!

Lori Andrews and Bart Samolis traveled an extreme distance with their instruments to play at our wedding. I simply cannot say enough about their professionalism, performance, and personalities. They simply made our wedding by setting the mood before, during, and after. They listened to our ideas of what we envisioned and they delivered with a sound that just needs to be heard to understand. They-just-sound-so-good. Anyone can have the dresses, tuxes, cake, and photos... but Lori Andrews and her band will make your wedding unique. Book them now while you can.

Lori Andrews and Bart Samolis are both very warm people and want to help in any way to help make the day even more special!! They were willing to do whatever it took for our wedding! Lori and Bart are just great people and a pleasure to work with! They absolutely made our day! Thank you!

Lori and Bart were very professional and their music was just BEAUTIFUL. They traveled many miles to play at our wedding and worked with our singer over the phone to make sure everything was just right for the day of the wedding. I got loads of compliments on the ceremony music and I would highly recommend their services. They really make your wedding ceremony truly special and unique.

Lori & Bart provided both the ceremony and reception music for our wedding in Ojai California. Lori & Bart bring a unique combination of classical harp music appropriate for a special ceremony and a jazzy harp and bass for the reception which makes all the guests feel uplifted and treated to an intimate concert. We would highly recommend Lori & Bart as the perfect music choice for a small or large wedding.
