Jazz Hands for the Tiny Jazz Band

John and his group absolutely knocked it out of the park. They expertly played all of the jazz classics and dressed elegantly for the occasion. They were the perfect choice to entertain our guests and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to book them for their event!

AMAZING BAND, GREAT MUSIC

We hired Tiny Jazz for our corporate event at the Eilan Hotel in San Antonio. All of the guests raved about how skilled the band members were and how great the sound was. Tiny Jazz played a variety of jazz that appealed to everyone in the room. Thank you so much for making our guests happy. When we are back in San Antonio, we will definitely use you again next time!

TINY JAZZ IS AMAZING!!

Ting Jazz is such an amazing group! They were so easy to work with and always were able to adapt to any changes necessary. John Spears was my main point of contact and he was phenomenal! Working for a university, the students absolutely enjoyed them as well as the faculty and staff! Such a fun and amazing group! Definitely will be using them again!

Tori, thank you so much for remembering us from last year! Glad the pandemic let up enough to have the Mardi Gras festivities. We were super pleased that the students were really digging the jazz and actively requesting songs. It was nice to finally meet you- Thanks again!

Tiny Jazz made the party!

I communicated with John of Tiny Jazz for booking and he was great. Kept me fully informed and was very dependable. He and Billy Ray provided the perfect jazz sound for our graduation brunch by the pool. Fun selection of tunes, even providing some Led Zeppelin for the parents!! Great fun, very reasonably priced, really increased everyone's enjoyment factor. Can definitely recommend and will be calling them again.

Awesome Musicians!!

We had Tiny Jazz out at our church for our Christmas services in December. They really set the tone, everyone enjoyed the atmosphere! They were very easy to work with, even accommodating when we had to rush them inside due to the cold front that blew in while they were here.

Best Jazz Band !

Tiny Jazz played at our Pizza Wine Bar and was Fabulous! They play the whole genre of jazz and we’re able to read our crowd and what they liked to hear. They’re sound was awesome! We have them coming back to play on Valentines Day & can’t wait to hear them again.

Response from Tiny Jazz:

Hi Mary! It's been several months since we first played (and the time of this review), and I want you know we enjoy coming and playing each and every time! Your staff feels like family and it shows in everything you've built out there. Thanks so much for having us play. For those reading this review - Mario's Pizza and Wine Bar is great - Just read all the reviews on Yelp and Google. (The eggplant parm has become one of my favorites, along with the supreme pizza, of course). They recently moved to 29774 US-281, Bulverde, TX 78163

Musical Perfection!

We contracted Tiny Jazz for a company holiday gathering and they were simply outstanding. All extremely professional and skilled musicians, with the perfect amount of coolness. We had never tried a live jazz band and wasn't sure how it go with our group (personally i love jazz) bc it can be hit or miss.... they were definitely a hit!! They will elevate any event for sure ....Cant wait to use them again.

About

I've been playing trumpet since I was a 6th grader in 1978 and have been playing professional gigs since 1994. I love all music. I collaborate with some of the best musicians in the San Antonio area and am in several bands - from jazz, smooth, ambient-chill, variety, polka, symphonic to Tex-Mex. Let us bring our love of jazz to your event!
