About Lindsay Straw: Singer & Acoustic Guitarist

Lindsay Straw: Singer & Acoustic Guitarist

Singer & Acoustic Guitarist

Mixing evocative Celtic songs with upbeat Americana folk and acoustic covers, Lindsay Straw delivers a soundtrack in a warm alto voice with intricate guitar and Irish bouzouki accompaniment. With over 250 weddings under her belt, she loves working with couples to provide the perfect folky playlist tailored to their tastes and needs. She provides her own sound gear and can accommodate new song requests. She's open to weddings all over New England.

Lindsay can provide a soothing all instrumental fingerstyle guitar set, mix in vocals, or switch to Irish bouzouki and go heavy on Celtic songs for folks who want to honor their Irish or Scottish heritage! While she often plays solo, she can also subcontract a friend or two on fiddle, pipes, concertina, mandolin, bass, etc. for an energetic ensemble performance.

  • Beautiful Music & Wonderful Experience

    We absolutely loved having Lindsay play at our wedding. Her music created such a beautiful atmosphere. She was also an absolute professional. She was easy to work with, reliable, and accommodating throughout the planning process. She made everything seamless, and her performance added so much warmth and elegance to our day. We couldn’t recommend her more highly to anyone looking for live music that truly elevates a wedding or special event.

    We hired Lindsay to play guitar during our wedding ceremony; we were floored by her skill and professionalism, as well as her custom arrangements of our processional and recessional music. We would eagerly recommend her to anyone who wants a special, personal touch for their big day, or anyone seeking a supremely talented Celtic style guitarist for any reason. Thank you, Lindsay!

    Lindsay was the best choice we made for our wedding! She sang for our ceremony, cocktail hour and even did our first dance. She went above and beyond to learn a new song for us and exceeded our expectations. She was super easy to work with and prompt with responses when we needed her! Her song list was extensive and set the perfect ambiance. We had so many comments from guests saying how talented she is! Also, her price is more than reasonable. We highly recommend Lindsay and look forward to seeing her shows in the Boston area!

    Lindsay was amazing! She provided the music for our daughter’s wedding and during the cocktail hour at the reception. Her style is wonderful and she has an extensive knowledge of so much music. She added a touch of elegance to our event. We highly recommend her!
