Latest reviews of our Vintage Jazz Bands
"These guys are brilliant to work with - our client had some specific requests about what she was looking for, and Helen was more than happy to adapt the band to make it perfect for them. Despite the weather being poor on the day, they brought the energy to keep the atmosphere alive! I look forward to working with them again for future events."
Ben hired Jazz Shed for a Wedding
"Craig Elliot and his band were absolutely perfect for our wedding and one of the best decisions we made. Craig and the band are pure professionals – they wove together our song requests and the overall vibe we were going for so flawlessly. The 4-piece band (piano, guitar, drums, sax) sounded phenomenal, learned our first dance song, and filled our venue with awesome music. Guests have continued to rave about them! The band handled coordination and logistics with our separately-hired DJ and the evening ran without a single hiccup. If Craig and his band are available – hire them!"
Paul hired THE ROAMING BAND UK for a Wedding
"The Jelly Roll jazz band made our evening event, they played exactly the music I asked for, and had everyone's toes tapping. They arived early, made no fuss, and charmed us all. I had a helpful confirming email well beforehand and it ran very smoothly. I would certainly book them again for a similar occasion in the future. Strongly recommended."

FAQs about hiring Vintage Jazz Bands in the UK
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
Can any vintage jazz band play my favourite song?
Professional vintage jazz bands will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that vintage jazz bands may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the vintage jazz band's song list on their Encore profile.
How much time do vintage jazz bands take to set up?
Your vintage jazz band 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 vintage jazz band 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 vintage jazz bands 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 vintage jazz bands will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
