Jazz Trio at a Wedding in Essex

Last Sunday, a jazz trio comprising of trumpet, piano and electric bass performed in a marquee for a wedding party in Essex. It went down very well with everyone.

We were put on the spot a little bit when the hosts asked us at the very last minute to play something 'romantic' or 'dramatic' when the bride and groom walked in. It was clear that this was very important to them but they really weren't sure what to ask for. It was a fun challenge ! (We repeated the opening bars of Nostalgia in Times Square over and over for about 15 minutes, getting quieter and quieter till we almost weren't playing it, then when they walked in, blasted out the rest of the tune !)

There was an asian band waiting to perform that included a tabla player, who jammed with us on a few tracks and to everyone's delight, their singer performed Summertime with us.

Below is footage of me performing with Keith Pinnock at Prima Donna's in West Wickham, South East London.



We play All the Things You Are, Black Orpheus, Naima and Night and Day.

Keith plays drums here but he is also a fantastic double bass player - in fact, that's his first instrument.

I can put together really high quality duos, trios, quartets, with or without vocals. The band is tailored to your budget and your event.
