Jazz Up Your Wedding duo (female vocals/piano)

Perfect for background music at your drinks reception or during the wedding breakfast. Plays background jazz (eg The Way You Look Tonight), latin (eg Girl From Ipanema) plus mellow soul (eg Walk On By) if wished.

(female vocals/piano/drums or sax)

The duo plus either sax or drums. With sax, it's great for background music. Swap the sax for drums and you've got a really swinging line-up with a livelier feel which can also double up as a dance band.  Ideal for smaller spaces. Plays swing jazz (eg My Baby Just Cares For Me), latin jazz (eg Mas Que Nada,  Girl From Ipanema) and mellow soul (Just The Two Of Us).  The drum trio also plays funk & soul for dancing and is ideal for smaller venues.

Jazz Up Your Wedding quartet (trio + sax or guitar)

The trio with drums plus either saxophone, which for many people adds that quintessential "jazz" sound, or guitar which gives a funkier edge.  Repertoire is the same as for the drum trio ie swing & latin jazz plus dancey funk (I Feel Good), Motown (Dancing In The Street), disco (Blame It On The Boogie) and recent funk and soul hits like Mercy (Duffy) and Valerie (Amy Winehouse).  A versatile band whether for background music or dancing, suitable for most sizes of venue.

(trio + sax + guitar)

This grooving five piece band with sax and guitar is a full-on, very funky dance band.  Same repertoire as the quartet.  Needs a bit more space!!
