Event: Wedding

I’m happy to say that I was very pleased both with the agency’s service and the acts that you provided. You were very prompt in replying to my e-mails both with queries and sorting out the paperwork. With regards to the acts, Steve H was excellent, producing amusing caricatures very quickly and mingling easily with our guests. Haynes Jazz were absolutely brilliant and really made our evening, we were so pleased we booked them. My husband had been a little worried that a jazz band might have limited appeal for some of our guests but they had an excellent repertoire and played lively upbeat songs which really got everyone dancing. We were very impressed with the band and Guy in particular and would definitely book them again. Hope this helps!

    FAQs

    What do you wear when you perform?

    We wear black suits unless you have other requirements.

    Do you provide background music when you are not playing?

    We play jazz CDs through the PA system or an amplifier between our sets. Alternatively you can provide your own CDs or iPod for us to put on.

    Do you provide all your own sound equipment?

    Yes. All we need from you is a power supply.

    Can you play outdoors?

    We are happy to play outdoors where practical. Normally this would be for an instrumental duo or trio only. We must be under cover to protect musicians, instruments and electrical equipment from both rain and direct sunshine. We need access to a power supply (see below if power is not available).

    Our venue cannot have amplified music - can you play acoustically?

    We have played at several venues where they are not allowed to have “amplified music” and we have provided acoustic line-ups involving combinations of sax, acoustic guitar and double bass.

    Can you learn our favourite song?

    We are happy to learn your song, given enough advance notice.
