Matthew's Jazz Band brought such a special element of energy and class to our gathering at The Campbell. They were super easy to work with, coordinating directly with the venue for access and setup. Professional, friendly, accommodating of changes, and GREAT music! Highly recommend and I would book them again in a heartbeat.

What to expect
My group will arrive early to sound check and test levels. We'll then perform for as long as you like, playing a mix of contemporary jazz standards, bossa nova, and songs by Great American composers such as Gershwin and Cole Porter. We'll make sure everyone is smiling and tapping their feet!!
About
I'm a jazz guitarist who's been playing regularly in venues in and around Manhattan for the last three years, whether it's providing music in a restaurant with my trio, or playing with 5 horns for somebody's wedding. I take great joy in providing a musical product that despite being sophisticated will still make you want to dance!
