Classic, Fun, Fantastic!
I had the pleasure of having the Justin Pierce Jazz Group play at a New Orleans-themed cooking demo at the event facility I manage. Not only did they arrive on time and completely prepared to perform, they gave one of the best jazz sets I've seen.
We had the four-piece band with drums, sax/clarinet, keys, and bass. Next time, we definitely would opt for the singer just because if they are that good with instruments only, I can only imagine the show they can do with vocals as well.
This group would be phenominal for any reception, wedding, dinner party, or just for fun! The smooth jazz they played made it extra easy for our guests to just sip on their cocktails and enjoy the night! Thanks so much to the Justin Pierce Jazz Group!
