It was our pleasure performing for your father in-laws 80th birthday. Robert and the Carrtunes already made arrangements for his 100th.

The Carrtunes Jazz Band did an incredible job for a crowd of nearly 250 people for our organization's anniversary celebration. They brought a trio and provided a great atmosphere for the Brunch we hosted. People gave great feedback on their professional skill and professionalism.
They were very easy and pleasant to work with and certainly well worth the investment. A great value! We would book with the Carrtunes again. Thanks Gigsalad, for the connect.

Hi Tanner,
It was a pleasure for us to perform for your five year anniversary jazz brunch. We met so many new friends of all ages. I also enjoyed the young drummers testing the sound of my drums. We hope to meet again in the near future. Donn Carr / Carrtunes Jazz Band
Dann Carr and his band did a tremendous job. Communication was great, they arrived on time, were welcoming toward guests and played a wide range of songs that acted as perfect background music to the bridal shower cocktail party. They heard second hand that the bride and groom plan to dance to Elvis Presley's Can't Help Falling In Love at their wedding in March and decided to play it for the crowd. To close the evening, they heard that it was one of the guest's birthday and played a lovely rendition of "Happy Birthday". Overall, I could not have been more pleased with their performance. I look forward to hiring this very talented group again for bigger events. Thanks again!
Great band on time music was very good recommend to anyone
