Jazz Bands: what couples ask
Practical answers about pricing, timing and what to confirm before you book.
Which part of the day suits a jazz band?
The drinks and the dinner: music that sits under conversation and sets a mood. Later in the night, many jazz bands move into swing, soul and funk to open the floor.
Is jazz too quiet for dancing?
Not necessarily. Tell the band what you want the last hour to feel like and most will build to it.
Trio or quartet?
A trio suits a smaller room and a mellow evening. A quartet, or a band with a singer, suits a bigger room and a night that ends on the floor.
Tell us about the day once.
