The SoSco Duo of Laura on flute and Alex on guitar provide wonderful musical entertainment for almost any social event. Their skillful playing of tunes from the Beatles to Sinatra will make any gathering forever memorable.

What do you love most about your job?
With all the stress and anxiety people are under these days, we recognize that audience members often arrive at our performances with hearts that are overwhelmed and souls that are weary. What we love most about performing is using our artistry to help people leave whole again. To achieve that, we find ourselves drawn to more soulful music. Performing this type of music, we use our musicianship to guide listeners into experiencing the true power of music reflected through our own musical passions and artistry.
We play every note, in every song, like it matters. Because it does.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Since we began playing together in 2014, our duo has evolved into an ensemble unlike any other. While we understand that performers are at various levels of musicianship and all levels can move audiences in a meaningful way, we take the business of music making very seriously. This is not our hobby. We don’t just do this for fun.
We have invested our lives, our time and effort, into studying, practicing and performing music. We took private lessons as kids, we got music degrees at some of the finest music schools in the nation with some of the finest teachers, and we’ve gone on to perform hundreds of times, honing our craft. We continue to learn and grow and refine ourselves as musicians and ensemble players every day.
For us, using music as a vehicle to connect people to powerful memories and emotions is our work. This is why we do what we do, and this is why music matters so deeply.
Why should our clients choose you?
We are the only weekly-performing flute and guitar duo in Arizona. When it comes to hiring small ensembles, there are a variety of choices including solo pianists or guitarists and string quartets. But if you’re looking for something different, there aren’t a lot of choices. We offer something different with the lyrical voice of the flute and harmonious chords of the guitar. Because of our busy schedule, we are always in performance-ready shape and always expanding our song list. With our experience and skill, you can be confident that your event music will be performed by the utmost professionals at the top of their game.
When you hire SoSco, you hire Laura Strickland and Alex Mack – not just any flute or guitar player who happens to be available that day. This ensures that all of our clients get a first-class performance by a tight, experienced ensemble, every time.
