It was a pleasure to have both of you play at our wedding reception! Your music during our Italian themed luncheon really added an "old world charm" and set the atmosphere!

Richard and Pete made our wedding so special! From the songs they learned for the ceremony to the familiar and beautiful Italian tunes they played throughout the appetizer hour and dinner, they were incredible. Our guests absolutely loved them, and felt transported to Italy for the evening. We want the Tarantellas to provide the soundtrack for our life! Their music provided a magical element to our wedding that was unique and lovely. We highly recommend them for any couple who loves the feel of old-world musicians and wants a romantic wedding. - Miriam and Sven
GUEST
The Tarantellas provided an excellent musical evening for my wedding dinner in October 2010. They wandered among the dinner tables, singing favorite Italian tunes as my guests enjoyed a wonderful Italian four-course meal.
I heartily recommend the Tarantellas for their music, their humor and their professionalism. They are an excellent value and great musicians. My family and guests were enchanted with them and several have mentioned the music from that very special night.
Thank you, Richard and Pete - The Tarantellas!

Who we are:
Richard Sclafani
and Peter Cicero are lifelong musicians who grew up in Italian-American families and neighborhoods during the '50's, the heyday of the Italian-American crooners. They met 30 years ago in Seattle and have been musical "paesans" ever since.
Both have performed as singer-songwriters, and in bands ranging from folk, to blues, to rock n roll over the years. Eight years ago they were asked to play some Italian love songs for a wedding, which set them off on a quest to learn all those great
melodies that they remembered from childhood. Their repertoire now includes over 100 favorite Italian tunes!
