New Sights, Big Sounds

Divisi Strings stands out from the crowd in and out of the gig. For the past three years we have been committed to providing the best live instrumental music in Texas. Divisi Strings has become a household name in the wedding industry and its time we put a face to the name... or should we say “faces.” In the short time that we have been in business the Big Sounds of Divisi Strings have been heard as far south as McAllen and Harlingen, TX and even east out to Lake Charles, LA. With branches in Houston, Austin, and Dallas it doesn’t seem that there is any limit to our reach. We have performed for hundreds of brides with everything from string quartets to harpists to Dixieland jazz bands and one of the defining features of our organization that our clients really connect with is that we are young, talented professionals.
Nancy Aidee (Nancy Aidee Photography) captured it all with her skilled photography a few Sundays ago when we had a (rare) day off. We have watched her work over the last couple of years that we have known her and Shelli believes she is one of the best kept secrets in the business.
So how best to celebrate another year gone by than to start a new division of Divisi Strings…

Collide is gaining fans and momentum at a dizzying rate. A collision of ideas, cultures, styles, and aural art forms, this group of diverse musicians brings everything to the table as they sample, deconstruct, and mash up every genre of music to create an entirely new musical landscape. Divisi Strings has collaborated with DJ firm, LG Entertainment to produce a show you will not find anywhere else. This one of a kind ensemble takes what may be considered a traditional string quartet and fuses in house beats laid down by the DJ. The finishing touch - Plasma TV's to highlight videos of each song the band performs and lighting services provided by COLLIDE! In November, we would like to invite you to a special gathering at the penthouse of the Arena Towers (7322 Southwest Freeway) for Collide’s official launch party.

Stay tuned for more information! In the mean time, visit www.divisistrings.com/collide.htm and download our first studio recording. For your viewing pleasure, check out our photos from the shoot.
