Acoustic Spanish, Latin Jazz, smooth & ambient music. Acoustic Dream will truly help make your event wonderful!
I discovered Acoustic Dream 11 years ago, and hired them to play at my 40th birthday party. I have followed their amazing success ever since.
I hired the band again, to play at my husband's 60th surprise party this weekend, and they are better than ever! I love these guys! They always deliver -wonderful music, fantastic singing, professionalism..... you name it, they have it!
A great time was had by all because of Acoustic Dream!
While planning a party for my best friend I knew she loved Latin/Jazz music but I didn't know where to find a band so I simply Googled "Acoustic Jazz Bands" and Acoustic Dream was the first one that came up! Jesse was a pleasure to deal with an absolute dream! Jesse surprised us both with his generosity and giving heart. The music & style were perfect for everyone, whether dancing or as back ground music simply perfect! Thank you for a wonderful memory!
Jesse Garza and the Acoustic Dream set the tone for a terrific fundraising and birthday party. Nothing compares to great live music and these guys delivered with their excellent talent. The volume was appropriate for the setting which allowed the party attendees to have conversation while enjoying the music. Many people commented on how impressive the music was and the professionalism and courteousness of the group members. Jesse's preliminary work and communication left me confident that everything would go off as planned - and it did! Thank you, Acoustic Dream, for a great performance.
We truly enjoyed the music that Acoustic Dream provided. It was our desire to find a group that played which allowed people to intermingle. I received many compliments from our guest about the music. The professionalism that the group brings ease in the coordination process. Thank you Jesse you made my retirement a success.
Our company hired Acoustic Dream for an event that we were holding in San Antonio. They went above and beyond what we requested and really made our event special. The music they played enhanced our event and we truly enjoyed their performance. We would highly recommend Jesse and his team.
A Latin Jazz band that makes any function the perfect background music. I first heard the Acoustic Dream at a style show at Oak Hills Country Club. From then on I knew that they would be the perfect fit for our 50th Wedding Anniversary. Everyone raved about the perfect fit to our celebration.
The company I work for recently held our annual conference in San Antonio, and we hired Jesse and his acoustic group to entertain at a reception we held for our attendees. Jesse was very easy to work with and always resonded to phone calls or emails promptly, which for me is very important. Jesse and his group were very professional and their music set the perfect mood for our reception and was enjoyed by all.
I cannot put in words how happy Acoustic Dream made me, but I will try. I hired Acoustic Dream as a suprise for my father to thank him for all he had done for me. They were a hit amoung my guests! They played soft enough so as to not drown out conversation but were entertaining and had my guests foot tapping, finger snapping, and head grooving. Their sound is wonderful and professional. I wasn't disappointed in the least bit I was actually suprised at how well they did. I had a paid for a 4 piece band, two guitars, sax, and keyboard. But Jesse added a person and that was a nice gusture, at no extra cost. They played for 2hours. All of them were so nicely dressed for the occasion and respectful when we had announcements, or the prayer over our dinner. Jesse accomodated my ipod to play songs off his system. I could go on and on about how pleased I was. If you are looking for an amazing latin, jazz band then Acoustic Dream is the best choice for your money! They made my wedding dinner a night to remember! Thank you so much Acoustic Dream for being a part of my special day.
First and foremost Jesse was a true professional! From the moment that I booked his band, I felt confident that everything would go smoothly. The band members were kind, respectful, and very professional. They were willing to play on my back patio, even though the party flowed inside and out. Everyone at the party asked about the band, which I feel gave them great exposure! Later that weekend, several neighbors mentioned how they enjoyed hearing the band as well. This group is using the talents they have been given, and are a true blessing to hear!
Music sound and levels were great for my party. This is a very talented and professional group of muscians. I would hire them again.
We thoroughly enjoyed listening to Acoustic Dream during our dinner. I wanted to get up and dance! My only complaint is that I was seated with my back to the band. They were so good, I kept turning around to watch them play. Glad to have bought the cds!
Very Nice
I am Duke Machado, President of the Hispanic Republican Club of McLennan County, and when Jesse asked me to provide feedback on our experience, I was honored to be able to express how satisfied we were with his band's professionalism and talent.
We were a newly formed Republican Club, and had planned a Launch Party to publicize our entry into the McLennan County political scene. The Launch would take place at the Hippodrome Theater, a Historic facility with ornate design and incredible acoustic qualities. We would be providing an evening of music, comedy and positive message about the emergence of Hispanics in the Republican Party. Guests included Senators, candidates for US Congressional District 17 and Texas Governor, prominent businessmen and women from McLennan and surrounding counties as well as local active members of the Republican Party.
When we started looking for a band to bring to perform for our very Conservative Republican audience, we thought long and hard about who would best suit our needs.
We discovered Jesse Garza via an internet search and found his website. After listening to a few of his songs and reading some reviews from past clients, we knew that we had found the right person for our event...now we just needed to secure him for that night.
During our conversation with Jesse, he mentioned that the date of our event just happened to be on his birthday. Immediately we assumed that he would not be able to perform for us, but to our surprise, he explained that our cause was important and that he would be honored to perform for our audience. We were thrilled as one can imagine!
On January 16th, 2010, Jesse and his band arrived in Waco just as scheduled. I introduced them to the sound manager and they setup their equipment and instruments. As they were setting up, I walked around and captured some video of their "Mic-test" which can be seen on You Tube.
As the theater came to almost full capacity, I knew that Acoustic Dream would be a hit, and as they were performing, it was obvious we had made the right choice. Feedback from people in attendance that night was completely positive. Everyone enjoyed their performance, and at the reception next door, they were able to meet the band members and get to know them.
If you are charged with the task of finding a band that will not only delight an audience, but also handle themselves with the utmost professionalism and courtesy, then I strongly suggest you hire Jesse Garza and his band Acoustic Dream. You will not be disappointed.

The music was excellent! It really helped set a mood on such a romantic night.
Absolutely delightful!
The music during dinner was very entertaining, relaxing & conducive to conversing with dinner guests.
These musicians sounded great. They knew what to play as a band without any sheet music. I bought their CD after their performance.
Wonderfully talented group of jazz musicians! Highly recommended.
Performance was enjoyable, smooth romantic and upbeat. It created an ambiance fit for the occasion "Forever My Love A Black and White Soiree". Perfect repertoire of melodies which helped set the mood for the evening. Hope to hear more of them soon.
If I ever need this type of music or services I will use Acoustic Dream without a doubt. They were awesome and would highly recommend this group to anyone. Thanks for a great evening.
