From the initial site inspection to the event bump in / bump out on the day, Steve was the ultimate professional and I will definitely book The Jazz Professionals again for future functions."

More Information "Recently I hired the Jazz Professionals for a wake and, truly, what a brilliant choice I made! As soon as I walked into the venue to hear the dulcet strains of the trio - some smooth saxophone and soothing vocals - I felt my heart lighten. The boys got the tone of solace and celebration just right...... It was just what I was thinking of! I'm very grateful to Steve and the Jazz Professionals for their sensitivity and, yes, (as it says in the name) their professionalism. Many, many thanks."

The 1920s Jazz Gang takes you back to the roaring 20s, where jazz music blossomed, gangsters and sly grog abounded and the flapper redfined modern womenhood. With a great selection of 1920s tunes, the band helps recreate the period with an authentic soundtrack for any 1920s event. "Thank you Steve and The Jazz Professionals for bringing a fantastic atmosphere to our 1920s Awards Dinner at the Centennial Winery, Bowral. You pitched yourselves perfectly at the beginning of the night with your acoustic set, and then had a few of us up and dancing with The Charleston later in the evening. I also really appreciated you making the effort to dress according to the theme, you really looked great. Hopefully I will have the chance to see you perform at another of our events in the future." Vanessa Curtis, Events and Program Manager - Australia & New Zealand, Hitachi Data Systems

"Dear Steve, Once again, Stephen and I want to say thank you very much for being such a lovely addition to our day. So many people came to compliment us on our choice in band and how you guys truly added a touch of class to our Chinese Wedding Reception. I was worried it wouldn't work, but I think you've helped raised the bar at an Australian-Asian Wedding by now...It was such a pleasure dealing with you as you were always so attentive to emails and phone calls and really very professional even though you were hectically planning your very own wedding.... I hope you've enjoyed the challenge and I will definitely recommend you to any of other friends who might want a Jazz band in the future!" Elaine Tan, wedding at Kam Fook, Bondi Junction |
