BRISTOL HARPIST
Hey there! I'm Scarlett, and
welcome to my world of
funky alt-harp bops.

"We just wish we had booked her for longer!" - Laura & George, April 2023
About Me
If you've found yourself on my website, you likely already have some idea of what a harpist is. Spoiler - I'm probably not that. Which could mean I'm not the right fit for you, or it could mean I'm everything you didn't know you needed.
​
Despite my classical instrument, my repertoire is 90% covers of modern music. From Pop to Disney to Film Scores to Video Games. Songs your guests will recognise and go 'Wait I know this song!'
​
My harp is also electro-acoustic, and a lot of my covers involve me combining the harp with beats, fx pedals or my loop station to create the funky upbeat vibes to put everyone in a good mood.
​
I have 10+ years professional experience and hundreds of happy clients under my belt, having performed everywhere from weddings, to corporate events, to theatre shows and even the top of a flying trapeze rig at Glastonbury Festival. I even organised a community tour of over 100 streets in Bristol to bring socially distanced live music to people during the covid-19 lockdown.
​
I'm based in Bristol but love an adventure. Even if your event is in the deep depths of the wilderness or a plane ride away I have a smaller electric harp and battery operated amp that are very portable.
​
So, have a good nosy around my website and if you like what you see / hear then fill out my enquiry form and I'll be psyched to hear from ya!
​
Much love, Scarlett (she/her)
