Overview

The Queen City Jazz Trio is composed of 3 long time professionals. Individually we have worked with some of the finest musicians including Buddy Rich, Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, Frank Wess, Chuck Jackson, Jim McNeely, and many others. We play jazz standards, bossa novas, and smooth jazz. Our sound is perfect for corporate events, receptions, galas, etc. Our core group is keyboard, bass, and conga drums. We can add a singer and/or a sax player if your situation calls for that. If you want some DJ music mixed in with the live music for dancing we have that covered as well. We provide a good PA system.

Incredible!

The band was absolutely amazing. The music played was right inline with what the party needed, they followed party cues, and stayed on tempo with the flow. I didnt even think about checking in with them because everything was so great. Would love to throw another party just to have them play again. If you are thinking about having jazz played at your party, you need this band.

Amazing value

We loved every bit of working with the Queen City Jazz Trio! Bob was so responsive, answered all our questions, and gave us really helpful suggestions of songs to consider (including samples!). We ended up deciding to add a vocalist and a saxophonist, and they suggested great people who integrated perfectly with the core group members. We engaged QCJT for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and they played a mix of jazz standards and bossa nova instrumentals. I can't even begin to describe how great their music turned out - the music ended up being one of our favorite things about our wedding and we are so thankful to Bob and the trio for pulling it all together. They are professional, prepared, and very very capable. I highly recommend them for any event.

Experience.

These are professional and gentlemen. My event was a formal affair and the trio was in tuxedos. Music was exactly what I requested. Thank you for this connection and look forward to using this site for future events.

What to Expect

We are not a dance band, but you can certainly dance to our music. The type of music we provide is perfect for receptions or events where a light jazz band will add a touch of class.

About

The Queen City Jazz Trio is composed of 3 long time professionals. Two of us are from New York City and one is from Chicago. Individually we have worked with some of the finest musicians including Buddy Rich, Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, The Shirelles, Frank Wess, The Belmonts, Lenny Welch, TK Blue, Chuck Jackson, Jim McNeely, Frank Caruso, and many others. We have been playing together in Charlotte since 2015 and have performed at the Mint Museum, Stowe Botanical Gardens, The Steinway Gallery, South Park Hilton, Charlotte Aviation Museum, The Capital Grille, The Carolina Hotel, and many private functions. We play jazz standards, bossa novas, and smooth jazz. Our sound is perfect for corporate events, receptions, galas, etc. Our core group is keyboard, bass, and conga drums. We can add a singer and/or a sax player if your situation calls for that. We provide a good PA system. If you want DJ music for dancing mixed in with the live music we have that covered as well. Please listen to our music and give us a call if you like what you hear.

Absolutely fantastic! All of our clients and advisors were raving about them. The music was perfect for the atmosphere and they even threw in a HAPPY BDAY song for one of our staff.

Thank you for such a wonderful evening and special birthday celebration. The music selection was fabulous. The rhythms and harmonies were tight. You filled the space with beautiful sounds and I look forward to hearing you again. I also appreciate the way you shared your personal musical insights. Keep up the great work you are doing.

Thank you again for arranging the concert the other week with the Queen City Jazz Trio and Nicci Canada. Although I was out of town that week, my colleagues that went said it was just wonderful. We heard lots of compliments from our residents, and know that they thoroughly enjoyed it.
