Made up of some of London’s finest jazz musicians, they are comfortable roaming your event to add their unique, witty style to your guests' experience or performing their full show as a centrepiece to the evening.

“The Southside Jazz Band provided brilliant music for our exhibition opening night at the gallery. We were impressed by their professional attitude and loved their upbeat selection of tunes which set just the right mood for the occasion. We will definitely book them again! Thank you.”

“The Southside Jazz Band are the highest quality of musicians with a huge sense of fun and camaraderie between them that suck your guests into the best party mood and lightness. They are truly wonderful and if they hadn’t been available for our wedding, we would have changed the date so they were!!”

Emma & Simon, Wedding in Bedfordshire, May 2019

“We booked The Southside Jazz Band for a 50th birthday party and they went down a storm, even people who thought they did not like jazz were blown away. This is a band that is full of character playing the best jazz standards with infectious energy and brilliant musicianship. No matter what your age they interpret a jazz era full of such joy and pathos that it makes you glad to be alive. I don’t think The Southside Jazz Band can have ever played a gig where the audience has not ended up romping along to their arrangements. Timeless music performed by brilliant musicians. A big genius slice of New Orleans served up to lucky Londoners without the airfare.”
