About

On WeddingWire since 2023

Rivers & the Cello is a wedding musician based in Bentonville, Arkansas.

Hey there, I go by Rivers (yes thats my real name). I'm your friendly neighborhood freelance cellist, proudly trained in the art, and I'm hanging out in the scenic realm of Northwest Arkansas. Whether it's a cozy wedding, a special event, or a full-blown party (with cocktail hour vibes included), I'm your go-to guy. Music runs through my veins, and there's nothing I love more than sharing its magic with folks like yourself.

Being a regular performer around these parts, I get to channel my musical skills right back into the community that raised me. My weapon of choice? A century-old German cello, with sound aged like the finest whiskey producing the most enchanting tones you can imagine. If you're as smitten by the velvety sounds of the cello as I am, let's chat. I'm all ears about what musical wonders I can conjure up for you. Can't wait to hear from you and bring beautiful music to your special day!

Excellent Musician & Professional Vendor

Rivers did a fantastic job. We hired him for the ceremony only.
Very communicative leading up to the event. We asked him to do one song not on his list (a Lord of the Rings theme) and he did a great arrangement of it!

Excellent performance!

Rivers (cello) and his violin partner did a beautiful duet for my walk down the aisle. I told them what I wanted and even made some changes pretty late in the game and they rolled with it. It was perfect. Absolutely recommend!
