Live Jazz Bands for Parties
More and more people are moving away from just the usual DJ for their parties and hiring bands to perform live. The jazz scene in the UK is vibrant and packed full of talented musicians who are waiting to perform at your own personal gig, and it’s never been easier to book a band.
But, it’s all complicated rhythms and difficult to dance to, isn’t it?
Well no. Jazz covers a broad range of styles and is simply the best thing to get people up and dancing at your party.
As Herve from the Lobster Pot said when he hired a jazz band this year: “We’ve had a lot of bands here, but none that have brightened up the place like you did. Once again, merci!”

Things to consider when choosing live jazz bands for parties
When opting for a live act of any kind, you want the right band at the right price for your venue and you want them to create a big impression.
First of all, take a look at the venue and decide what would be a good size band to play there. Obviously, if the venue is small you don’t want an 8 piece band taking up the space, and if it’s big you don’t want a single musician who might get lost in the crowd.
Secondly, what type of jazz do you want to be played? The Jazz Agency offers a wide range of different groups from swing to be-bop and contemporary. It’s simple to browse, just take a look at samples of them on video and choose the band or performer that will suit your vibe.
Thirdly, you need to decide on your budget. Obviously a seven piece live jazz band is going to cost more than a single jazz guitarist because of the number of people. Find out more about how the process works with The Jazz Agency.
If you want something different and a party that goes with a swing, then maybe it’s time you considered a live jazz act, chosen from some of the best professional musicians in the business, delivered direct to your venue.
