Our instrumental duo features NIcholas Serbina on guitar and Jim Slominski on double bass; our trio features Katie Ross on vocals, Nicholas Serbina, and Jim Slominski on double bass. While primarily a jazz band that is continually adding more and more songs to their jazz repertoire, we also play a rich mixture of standard and contemporary pop, folk, and blues - to offer a full top to bottom one-stop group to play just about any type of event.
For a corporate event, we couldn’t have had a better musician. Their music style, their presence on stage, and they are all excellent musicians. I am very happy to have them at our event. They are very professional and friendly. I recommend!
