Puget Sound Strings

Will you play outside?

We are happy to play outside and do so numerous times each year. In order to protect our fragile instruments we need to be seated in full shade if it sunny, and have shelter such that our instruments don't get wet if there is any precipitation.

Can you play pieces that are not on your repertoire list?

Absolutely! One new song can be arranged for $50. Additional requests can be made for $75 per song.

How far will you travel? / Do you charge extra for traveling?

We are willing to travel, though a travel fee is charged when travel time or distance exceeds 30 minutes or 20 miles. Time and distance estimates are from Seattle. In order to compensate our musicians appropriately for their time and travel expenses, travel fees can be significant when traveling long distances.

Do your rates include gratuity and/or tax?

Our rates include all taxes. If you would like to tip the musicians, you can give it to them on the day of your event.
