Decatur Street Jazz

"Decatur Street Jazz were wonderfully fantastic in our John Lewis & Partners Southampton store. Highly recommend."

Trio Nay
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"We couldn't have been happier with the incredible musicians who performed at our wedding. From the very beginning, Tom was an outstanding point of contact—responsive, organised, and a pleasure to work with. He was always quick to reply, kept us updated throughout the planning process, and coordinated seamlessly with the rest of the band. We went through several iterations of our playlist, and Tom was incredibly patient and helpful in refining it. He gave us excellent advice on our entrance and exit songs, as well as recommending pieces that perfectly suited the atmosphere and our Asian wedding guests. On the day, the trio (piano, bass, and vocals) were fantastic. They set up quickly, adapted effortlessly to the flow of the day, and created a wonderful atmosphere for our guests. Even when we weren't available to give directions, they made thoughtful decisions, kept everything running smoothly, and ensured the music never stopped. The quality of the performance was exceptional, and we've had so many compliments from our guests. If you're looking for talented musicians who are professional, reliable, and genuinely care about making your day special, we couldn't recommend Tom and the band more highly. Thank you for helping make our wedding so memorable!"

FAQs about hiring Jazz trios in Essex

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

Can any jazz trio play my favourite song?

Professional jazz trios will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that jazz trios may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the jazz trio's song list on their Encore profile.

How much time do jazz trios take to set up?

Your jazz trio will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the jazz trio prior to their arrival.

My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?

PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our jazz trios are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our jazz trios will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
