Acoustic Jazz has played music for weddings outside the church, in hotels, village halls, marquee's and stately homes. They have played the processional music for Church, Civil and Humanist ceremonies.
Acoustic Jazz tailor the choice of music according to the happy couples wishes. If you want background music during the wedding breakfast or exciting foot tapping dancing music for a party this jazz band can provide it. For larger venues and static performances Acoustic Jazz does use amplification this allows for vocal refrains necessary for some of our repertoire.
Acoustic Jazz has many tunes on their list, mainly from the 1900's, to 1940's. including well known tunes like All of Me, Creole Love Call, Avalon, Honeysuckle Rose, Bye Bye Blackbird. Most of these were recorded at some time by Louis Armstrong, but then he recorded the best tunes of the era, however Acoustic Jazz is not a Louis Armstrong tribute band.
If you would like the band to play a special tune not currently in their repertoire they will learn it for you (provided it fits their style!) and, unusually for a jazz bands they have some waltz's in their repertoire.
Please note Acoustic Jazz has a regular line up of players , unlike some other jazz bands, they never take a booking and then provide a substitute band, what you book is what you get, see the Frequently Asked Questions page. This enables them to provide a polished professional performance tailored to the bookers requirements.
As well as their nineteen twenties style striped blazers seen in most of the pictures Acoustic Jazz now have evening dress tailcoats for the formal twenties theme.
A typical wedding day could include the band playing gentle background music to entertain the guests on arrival or while the photos are being taken, then moving to the dance floor to play music for dancing at whatever tempo the guests want. Sometimes they've led the procession of wedding guests from the ceremony to the wedding reception.
