MUSIC FOR EVENTS
Music That Brings the Room to Life
A seasoned serenader and party starter, I’ve been curating and performing music at celebrations, festivals and conferences for two decades.

How You Can Work With Me
Noughtie 90s Piano Sing-along
What is it?
In a nutshell - a nostalgic crowd singalong, where the audience is the main act.
What music do you sing?
We call it classy throwback. From indie anthems to pop classics, UK Garage to power ballads — we play the songs everyone knows the lyrics to, but not necessarily the ones you hear all the time. There’ll be many moments of ‘No way! This song!’
Expect big medleys (yes, Robbie Williams and Alanis Morissette are regulars), heart-felt crowd connection, and tears of joy and laughter. In this world of AI, there’s nothing quite like being in a crowd, singing live, feeling the feels, and remembering the good times - together.
Who runs it?
We’re a team of performers who are equal parts musicians, facilitators, and mischief-makers. Sarah is your pianist, and then there are always two incredible backing singers, encouraging the crowd to sing their hearts out, and channelling their inner Gary Barlow…
Where do you perform?
We’re festival favourites at Glastonbury Festival, Wilderness Festival and Love Trails Festival — and just as at home at weddings, parties, and late-night dance floors.

“When Noughtie 90s Singalong take to the stage, the crowd is sept up in a wave of euphoric, communal joy. Unmissable.”
— James Barnett - Greenpeace Stage, Glastonbury
“Having worked with Sarah and the team for many years, I can confidently say that the piano sing-along has become a core part of the programme that our audience look forward to year and after year. A festival crowd that's done yoga, run a 10k and been raving by noon is hard to impress. Somehow the piano sing-along still manages to surprise and engage them, and sparks absolute joy!”
— Ollie Baxter - Head of Music at Love Trails Festival
DJ Sarah Tonin
Wedding DJ and Party Starter
Think Julie Andrews, on the decks.
If there’s one thing I care about at your celebration, it’s this: a packed dance floor, all night long.
I’m a highly versatile DJ with a knack for reading the room: knowing exactly when to drop a nostalgic classic, switch the energy, or bring in an unexpected banger that gets everyone moving.
From 90s/00s throwbacks to UK Garage, Musical Theatre to Latin and Drum and Bass, I’ll weave your tastes into a set that feels completely personal, but loved by all. I have a habit of adding some MC magic into the mix, so an improvised group choreographed moment is not off the cards…
Expect big sing-alongs. Unexpected moments. And the kind of energy that pulls even the “non-dancers” onto the floor.
Before your wedding or event, we’ll have a consultation to get really clear on your musical tastes, must-plays, and the kind of party you want to create, so when the night comes, you can relax and trust it’s all taken care of.
“I don't think the dance floor ever emptied at our wedding last year - a perfect mix for all ages, stages and tastes (still not sure where you pulled that Viennese waltz from?!). If you want to see someone truly in their flow state, just pop her in front of some decks and get ready to dance…’’
— Hannah & Richie - Wedding
“Sarah DJd for the silent disco at our wedding three years ago and was amazing! The party kept going until the early hours and the tunes were fab - excellently tailored to our tastes we would definitely recommend .”
— Johnny & Hannah - Wedding
“Sarah is a DJ extraordinaire & masterful crowd pleaser! From private DJ at pool parties to filling the floor at London Latin nights, her vibe is unashamedly joyous & energetic. She’ll keep your serotonin topped up til the break of dawn!”
– Wedding Guest Attendee
Live Songwriting for Events
Write a one-off anthem and end your event on a high!
I bring rooms full of people together to write and perform a communal song in under 30 minutes.
No musical experience needed. I guide the whole thing so that before anyone really knows what’s happening… we’ve written a song. And then we sing it!
It’s high energy, connecting joy where everyone feels like they could be winning a Mercury Prize…
For conferences:
We take the themes, ideas and bubbling energy of the day, and turn it into a song that brings it all together and leaves people feeling connected.
For weddings & celebrations:
We write a song for the person (or people) of honour, full of stories, in-jokes and all the reasons they’re loved. We then perform it back as a moment that’s joyful, and genuinely moving. The guests connect over shared memories, and the stars of the song feel seen and loved! [This can be done at the event, or in advance to be performed at the event.]
I’m there to hold it all: the energy, the nerves, the big personalities, and turn it into something cohesive, playful and unexpectedly good.
The result?
A room full of people who started as a crowd… and end up as a choir.
''The session was two years ago but the team still talk about it, and at the end of every team event the anthem we wrote comes out with pride. Sarah is a unique talent and I couldn't recommend working with her highly enough.''
— Andy - Former CEO of Mention Me
“That was amazing. I had so much more confidence to talk to other people at the networking drinks because we’d all sung together!”
— Participant at Entrepreneur Networking Event
"Perfect combination of professionalism and light-heartedness to create a powerful end to our event – a key highlight of the whole conference”
— Shamash Alidina - Happier World Conference
''Sarah made everyone feel at ease (including myself), was full of energy and we've composed a hilarious song about what we've learnt from our speakers throughout the day with a parody on "Don't Stop Believing" song by Journey. Lots of fun and really engaging. It went way better than I expected! I'd recommend Sarah without any hesitation.''
— Sergei - UX Design Conference
