Jazz Bands Leeds

During its six years of professional service, Bands for Hire has amassed a vast index of superb live acts, including several extremely talented Leeds Jazz Bands. Whether you're looking to liven up your wedding reception, garden party, charity or corporate event, our players have the chops to tackle the classic jazz standards and infuse your evening with a healthy dose of cool.

Many of our Leeds jazz bands for hire perform with differing lineups depending on the event and the size of the venue. From solo pianists to full-blown 10-piece swing ensembles, from the relaxing strains of a jazz duo blending into the background to the lively marriage of drums, double bass and piano that constitutes the classic jazz trio, your jazz experience can be tailored to whatever your needs may be.

Hire Jazz singers and Jazz bands in Leeds

This very distinctive vocal style, coupled with true showmanship, is bound to appeal to every guest. The spine-tingling effect of a powerful leading lady channelling the sultry female tones of Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone is matched only by the energetic pizzazz of Sammy Davis Jr. and the smooth crooning of Ol’ Blue Eyes Frank Sinatra himself. Along with the madcap scat of Louis Armstrong and the heart-wrenching soulfulness of Billie Holiday, our Leeds jazz bands incorporate this myriad of vocal styles to convey an array of emotions. With solo or group performers of either gender as well as male and female duets, the owners of these impressive voices also provide a compelling visual experience, whether you picture yourself sipping champagne at your drinks reception or doing the jitterbug across the dance floor.

Leeds Jazz Bands For Hire

Our musicians are all dedicated students of the ever-growing list of jazz subgenres, constantly evolving and reinventing. From the jubilant swing of the 20s and 30s to the exotic stylings of Gypsy Jazz following in the footsteps of guitar virtuoso Django Reinhardt, from the frenetic rhythms of Bebop to the experimentation of modern jazz incorporating modern elements such as electronic beats and synthesised instruments, from jazzed up renditions of familiar modern hits to revered compositions taken from the Great American Songbook, penned by the likes of George Gershwin and Cole Porter - you’ll find your flavour of jazz right here at Bands for Hire.

Our Leeds jazz bands can be hired across West Yorkshire, covering Bradford, Huddersfield, Wakefield and Halifax.

Our quotes for each Leeds jazz band covers the use of the band’s equipment and sound system as well as travel. For further information on the kind of jazz you’re looking for, or queries about cost and logistical issues, please contact us.
