September 27, 2026Highly recommend
Loved hosting a local jazz quartet for our event at Macys. Many smiles from both customers and colleagues. My first choice to schedule Monk Slippers for future events. Planning was very simple and the band has a great variety of sets that everyone would enjoy.

August 4, 2025Perfect Evening of Jazz and Fellowship
I cannot begin to express how easy and enjoyable the process was of working with Monk Slippers. They were professional and responsive through the entire process, coordinated their attire to the event, and adjusted their schedule as requested based on moving timelines. Monk Slippers created the perfect environment for 50th anniversary celebration. The live background music added an ambiance to the air that invited conversations and laughter. I would highly recommend this group to anyone who wants to enjoy their evening in style!
