We hired JW for a party and they delivered! Great music and our guests loved the pace and style. We had a 1920s theme party and they provided upbeat fun music over dinner. These guys are awesome and professionals. Will definitely hire them again!

From a logistics perspective it could not have been any smoother. JW called me to confirm the details and finalize the terms. The day of the event, the band arrived on time, immediately scoped out the space and picked the best spot to set up. Once they completed the set up, they broke to eat and then became all business. This band is the real deal.
I spent 13 years hanging at Manny's Carwash in the Upper East side of Manhattan and never experienced a band perform as well as this group from Ottawa. Consummate professionals, JW-Jones Band are true performers on stage who know their craft and love to play music in front of an audience. This was their first event in front of a physical audience since the pandemic, and their passion to play was only equalled only by their talent. Our guests begged them for a third set (encore) which they willingly obliged despite the late hour.
The Canada Day celebrations on our lake the next night were all buzzing about this band and how the contributed to the "best party ever." If you want a garden variety party, hire a DJ or another band. If you want your event to be legendary--then hire JW-Jones blues band. It's good for the soul.

About
Are you looking for real music? Are you hoping for a performance that's memorable and special?
Billboard Top 10 Blues Artist, 2020 IBC Winner, and JUNO Nominee, Canadian singer/guitarist JW-Jones is known for his high-energy shows! JW can also offer jazz combos if that is more suited to your event.
After winning “Best Guitarist” at the 2020 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Jones started working on his 12th release 'Everything Now', an all-original project with special guest Jimmie Vaughan, and production by Gordie Johnson (Big Sugar).
The frequent resident of Billboard’s Top 10 Blues charts and roots radio favourite continues to accelerate his career momentum to new heights, whether it’s as a personally requested sit-in with the likes of 8-time Grammy winner Buddy Guy, opening for blues-rock icon George Thorogood, or entertaining thrilled audiences in 23 countries and four continents.
“His evolution as a musician and vocalist shine through on this record like never before. Real songs, real playing by real people, and JW is the real deal.” – Chuck Leavell (The Rolling Stones)
