About Manhattan Jazz:

Manhattan jazz have been providing the atmosphere for parties, corporate events and weddings for over a decade; from private house parties, to michelin starred restaurants such as le manoir aux quat' saisons and the waterside inn, to events at birmingham icc, twickenham stadium, blenheim palace and excel; playing for prime minister david cameron and for the liberal democrat party conference.


Show Description:

The jazz trio line-up is perfect for unobtrusive background music during a champagne or cocktail reception or for 'dinner jazz' during a meal. This line-up usually consists of saxophone, piano and double bass (a digital keyboard is provided where there is no piano available), but can be adjusted to suit preferences and/or practicalities (e.g. Vibraphone can be substituted for piano where there is no power and no piano available).

for dancing or for larger events the quartet line-up, including drums, make manhattan jazz one of the most swinging bands you will ever hear!

manhattan jazz's excellent female and male vocalists complete the line-up to provide exceptional versatility for background music, music to listen to or music to dance to.
