Band was on time, playing as we walked in. All of the guys played well throughout the night, smiles on their faces during breaks. Our event cleared out early around midnight (9 PM - 1 AM event), I told the guys they could leave early if they felt like it. However, it was obvious they were having fun and they kept going. I appreciate that you all had fun together and just enjoy the music. It was clear that you enjoy what you do, and that made the event all the more special. Thank you!

My event was held outside, weather was gorgeous, large crowd of 300 spread around the facility and this group's music was perfect! It is clear they enjoy working together, I couldn't buy a recorded version of their music that sounded any better than the live performance. I got so many compliments on my selection of musicians for the event, it was first class background music and everyone could hear each other talk! Highly recommend.

Wedding Band
We hired Background Jazz for our 20th Wedding Anniversary and they were the perfect group for our party! Very friendly and professional musicians who were so fun to listen too. We highly recommend for any event that needs jazz music and are planning to use them again.
1920s Era Entertainment, Jazz Band
The band did a great job and we were able to schedule them very last minute. It seems we missed some communication as they weren’t able to play either of the two songs suggested, but again they were booked very last minute. It appears when I booked them I was communicating with someone who wasn’t at the event, which maybe wasn’t the most helpful. However, they were professional, did a good job and were sweet.
