Niccole Modell
Award-Winning Flutist & Pianist for Weddings and Events
Based in Ventura County and serving Santa Barbara (and beyond), I specialize in live music performances that bring elegance and emotion to weddings, corporate gatherings, and private celebrations. Whether performing solo or as part of a flute and piano duo, I create an atmosphere that enhances each moment — from heartfelt ceremonies to sophisticated receptions.
Why I Love What I Do
I grew up surrounded by music and inspired by the joy it brings to life’s most meaningful moments. For me, performing isn’t just about beautiful sound — it’s about connection. I love helping couples and event hosts find the perfect soundtrack that reflects their story and transforms their event into something unforgettable.
I play with emotion in every note, ensuring your guests feel the warmth and artistry behind each performance.
