Max and his trio arrived on time and were ready to go for the event. No complications with the setup or the service provided. Very impressed by everything regarding this matter. 10/10 would book again.
Jazz Band
Max and his band came ready to play and we really enjoyed them jamming out at monopoly night, it was a fun time to watch them enjoy their craft. Came on time, prompt, and ready to go,Would highly recommend .
Jazz Band
Everybody enjoyed the music, and our special day was certainly made more unique and high quality by Max and his pianist.
4 stars only because the original agreement was for a 3-piece-- sax, piano, and stand up bass. The crew showed up without the stand up bass player and without warning. A heads up with good reason would have been acceptable, but showing up without the agreed-upon ensemble without warning is frankly just poor professionalism. But again, music was great and a mostly redeeming quality.
Wedding Band
Max and the band are great!
Jazz Band

You can expect great, fun music ranging from the early 20's of the classic jazz age through unique and stylized versions of Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder songs. Tunes associated with the likes of Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin, Billie Holiday, Gene Ammons, and Dexter Gordon are my specialty.
