About Us

At Buzz Music Group we have hand picked the best musicians around to take your wedding or event to the next level.

A Music Agency You Can Trust

Cressida and Jonny run Buzz Music Group together. They played at numerous weddings and events as freelance musicians for many years before setting up Buzz. They both had varied performing careers playing with orchestras such as the Royal Philharmonic and working with bands such as Keane, Muse and for Classic Ibiza.

With their in depth knowledge of the musical repertoire and how events and weddings work from the inside, they knew they could make it a seamless, stress-free process for clients with no details missed. The pool of musicians who form part of the Buzz family, are all experienced, reliable and top quality players who have worked with some of the biggest names in the industry. They are accustomed to playing at high profile events including royal weddings.

As a company we strive to make classical music accessible to more people through discounted tickets in our Hennessey Brown Music concert series. We also donate to mental health charities and believe in valuing musicians, paying them fairly for their hard work.

Their performance was excellent and they had everyone on the dancefloor from the start. The feedback that we received from our staff afterwards has been so positive! We wouldn’t hesitate to use USO again. Top class professionalism coupled with excellent musicality is what you get when you book USO.
