Stream audio from PC to smartphones?

For Christmas 2016, me and my dad want to do a Lightshow for our neighborhood with lights and music.

enter image description here We have the lights set up, but the music is a problem. We don't want to put huge speakers in our garden because that would be very annoying for our densely populated neighborhood.

So, we came up with this concept:

enter image description here

The computer (Windows 7) handles the lights with a sequencer from Light-o-rama.

Now my question is:
How can I stream audio from the PC to the smartphones?
I can figure out the smartphone end myself, but the streaming audio from PC is the thing here.

The solution can be anything! But I can't seem to figure it out! Relevant languages I can do are:

  1. C++
  2. C#
  3. Java
  4. NodeJS
  5. ASP.NET

But it can also be a program that already can do this!

EDIT:
THIS IS A MUST: Lights and music have to stay in sync! The lights dance to the music

Anything helps! Thx in advance!

If you can get everyone to download this app: SoundWire you can stream audio from Windows to any Android phone (assuming your friends are cool)

Check it out looks pretty cool, you can even stream a youtube video and get the audio synced up with any android smartphone
