The new Bath Assembly Rooms opened in 1771 with Linley as Musical Director. Linley's regular concerts starring his children were performed in front of full houses and his finances began to prosper. The family moved to Royal Crescent, a more fashionable address, raising their social standing. The children started to feature in concerts further afield including oratorios in London; Linley demanded high fees for them and organisers of a charity concert held to raise funds for the Foundling Hospital had to pay £100 for two of his daughters to sing. At the time of Elizabeth's marriage to Richard Brinsley Sheridan on 13 April 1773 estimates appeared in the "Bath Chronicle" speculating Linley had earned almost £10,000 from her performances.
