Jazzkwest

We are performers for all occasions. We are at home in upscale and casual hotel and dining venues, stage or cabaret, indoor and outdoor concerts and festivals, weddings, reunions, family gatherings, club and private parties and corporate affairs. Our music is quiet enough to blend in the most intimate venues and energetic enough for dancing.
We take requests and maintain a large repertoire with styles that are up tempo, danceable, romantic ballads, Latin bossas, swing, pop and big band. JAZZKWEST is fresh nostalgia at its best. Smooth lyrical vocals, strings and rhythm regenerate upbeat swing, syncopated Latin and easy listening jazz standards. We are professional, personable, sensitive and respectful of the requirements of each venue. We bring an acute awareness of space, sound, timing, feeling and style as essential elements to every performance.
Local venues have included The Silicon Valley Capitol Club, Pan Pacific Hotel San Francisco, San Jose Jazz Festival, Bohemian Grove Russian River, Caf Fino Palo Alto, Central Park Bistro San Mateo, Bella Vista Woodside, Bacchanal South San Francisco, Towles Burlingame, Yahoo! Sunnyvale, Santana Row San Jose, Greenhill’s Country Club Millbrae, Hornblower Cruises San Francisco, Turtle Bay Foster City, among others.
We are currently performing at Broadway Grill in Burlingame.

We are looking forward to making your event a success. Thank you for you interest and consideration.
