We can provide a jazz ensemble or jazz band in London, Essex, Sussex, Surrey, Kent, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Berkshire and other areas of the UK

Before you carry on, turn up the sound on your computer, press play in the box, then read on...

Please note that there is 6 minutes 39 seconds of music in this sound file so try and stay around for a while.

If you are looking for something a little different from the usual function band or DJ; then we might have what you are looking for. A jazz trio, duo, or jazz band playing tasteful mellow jazz could be just the thing to add a nice easy relaxed ambience to your event or party. The main advantage of having a jazz ensemble is that the music tends not to intrude on conversation - allowing people to listen if they so choose.

The best way of working out your requirements is to first of all decide on your main instrumental line up, or rhythm section as it is frequently called and then add to this. The choices for the rhythm section are as follows:

1) Solo jazz pianist

2) Jazz duo (piano and drums or piano and bass)

3) Jazz Trio (Piano, Bass and Drums)

You can then add any of the following to the above line ups

1) Vocals (either Alice Harvey or Sheila Daniels)

2) Saxophone

The Vocalists

You can learn more about each vocalist by clicking on the following links.

Please note that whichever vocalist or instrumental line up you choose - we mostly perform jazz standards. A jazz ensemble or jazz band does not have the same repertoire as a function band (Dancing Queen, Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da etc.).
