June 30, 2025Great band!
We booked Bongolatte for our art sale this summer. They were super chill, easy to work with, punctual and professional. And the music was PERFECT. Highly skilled musicians. Great balance for our sale. Vendors and attendees alike loved their performance. 10 stars!

May 30, 2024University of Oregon Dux N Tux Banquet
We recently had the pleasure of hosting The Dorian May Quartet at our Dux and Tux event, held in the EMU ballroom at the University of Oregon. From start to finish, the experience with this talented jazz group was nothing short of exceptional.
First and foremost, their communication was consistently clear and professional, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. The band showed remarkable punctuality, arriving early and prepared, which allowed for a seamless setup. Impressively, they brought all their own equipment, demonstrating their professionalism and commitment to providing a top-notch performance.
The event, attended by 150 students, was a two-hour celebration, and The Dorian May Quartet delivered a fantastic performance that captivated the audience. Their musical talent is evident in every note they play, bringing a lively and sophisticated ambiance to the ballroom. The members of the quartet were incredibly nice and approachable, adding a personal touch that was appreciated by all in attendance.
We highly recommend The Dorian May Quartet for any event. Their dedication, professionalism, and exceptional talent made our Dux and Tux event truly memorable. Thank you, Dorian May Quartet, for an unforgettable evening of jazz!

April 20, 2024Dorian May Bongo Latte Jazz Band Steals the Show
The Dorian May Jazz Trio often plays for us at The Eugene Hotel . So for our Harvest Festival we chose to have The Dorian May Latin Jazz Trio, "Bongo Latte". Once the food had been consumed, attendees focused on the fabulous, upbeat Latin music complete with piano, bass and percussions. Some people danced, some sang and others joined in with their instruments. The audience was alive with the beat of the music. Our Harvest Festival turned into a real party...no one left early! We are having Bongo Latte back for a Cinco de Mayo celebration and the jazz trio back in June. Dorian May and group has been a wonderful find! We pack the house whenever they perform.

January 9, 2024Wonderful and lively
Dorian May Jazz Band has performed for us at the Rawlin at Riverbend Memory Care Facility many times. Our residents just adore them! they always get so excited when they hear Dorian May is coming to perform for us. Music is so important in communities like these, it provides joy, laughter and even tears from the memories those notes can hold. I am Marren Hamilton the Activities Director at the Rawlin and I can't express how much we love having the Dorian May Jazz Band come share their time and experiences with us.
