Jules and the Gents Wowed Our Guests

If you are looking to add fun and class to an event, I strongly recommend booking Jules and the Gents. They provided entertainment during our 1920s Speakeasy Gala. They game dressed in period outfits and were a delight to work with.

Amazing performance!

Thanks so much to Jules and the Gents for performing at our conference dinner reception. I received a lot of great feedback from our attendees that they really enjoyed the band. Jules was very responsive during the planning process and communicated expectations ahead of time. We thoroughly enjoyed their performance and highly recommend the band.

So glad we chose Jules and the Gents for our event!

Jules and the Gents played at my son's college graduation party. We had a roaring 20's theme for the party and this band was perfect for the theme!! Very professional. Very talented musicians and entertainers. The college kids enjoyed the band as much as the older family members. Such a wonderful evening.

What to expect

Julie Stein aka "Jules" leader of this upbeat talented quartet has been said to look like a modern Betty Paige with the voice of Peggy Lee. She leads the group with soulful vocals, melodic flute, bluesy saxophone and beautiful stage presence. Rhythm section Doug Rolph (Upright Bass) and Don Whitaker (Percussion) have been playing in multiple bands since the late 90's and make a solid back bone for the ultimate in choice standards. Marc Baldwin (Guitarist) with a Masters in Music has a funky/jazz rhythm style and plays amazing tap your toe solos filling out what many referred to as an "ear candy" mix.
Integrating jazz standards from the greats like Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, Antonio Jobim, Benny Goodman, Coltrane and more allowing you to create the exact mood for your unique event. Successful matches for "Jules & the Gents" are; Wedding, Cocktail hour, Dinner party, Wine tasting, Garden party, Spring fling, Masquerade balls, Mardi Gras (w/ a rousing rendition of a Second Line upon request), Speakeasy, Great Gatsby, Golden Age, Swing dance, Funeral Dirge...or anyone looking for a traditional yet inspired jazz treat!
