My group and I play upbeat, hip, fun, funky modern jazz. Wether it's a Duke Ellington tune from the 1940's or a jazz funk tune from the 60's or 70's or beyond, we put our unique stamp on everything we play. We swing, groove and play soulfully from our hearts. We bring diverse sounds from the wellspring of the blues to sounds from all over the world to keep it fresh and exciting. When you're having fun we are.
We take requests and we love to play for you, and we do a great job for you and your guests.
Booking with us is SUPER easy, and when you do I'll go over every detail of the music for you so you don't have to.
We look forward to being a part of your next event and making it GREAT!
Very satisfied, others wanted to book them as well for other parties

Thank you so much Joe. We had a great time playing for you and your wonderful guests and we would play for you anytime. Appreciate the kind words :)
It was a pleasure working with Jim! His responses to requested information were immediate, pleasant, polite, and professional. Jim even sent songs (after he was booked!) and they were always a treat. The audience loved them, you are in for some really great music!!

I've been playing guitar since I was 11. Shortly after I started I heard Jimi Hendrix and that was it.
I have a masters degree in music, I've played with Wynton Marsalis, Jimmy Heath, Lew Soloff, Mike Mossman, Jeb Patton, Larry Ridley, Jim Ridl, the Jazz Lobsters, the Brookdale Big Band and the Toms River Big Band.
Music of mine has appeared in over 40 Tv shows, 2 commercials and two indie films. You may have heard of a few former students of mine too including Charlie Puth, Colton Kayser and Phoebe Ryan.
If you hire my group for your party or event you'll be glad you did.
Our requirements are very simple - proximity to an electrical outlet and a place to play :)
If we are playing outside we require cover from the sun/rain, and we require proper notice of cancellation for weather. We do offer rain dates and credits toward future events.
