The DZ Combo played for our daughter’s wedding reception. Music was just perfect. People could enjoy the fresh jazz stylings and still hear each other at tables. The Combo even adapted a rock song and played a great jazz version for the father/daughter dance. Every guest mentioned how much they loved the combo and how much the music contributed to the elegant and lively atmosphere of the reception. Can’t imagine any way they could have been better. Thank you DZ Combo, our friends and family will always remember our daughter’s wedding reception’s perfect soundtrack.

The DZ Combo can offer hours of easy-listening jazz music. The group plays many well-known jazz standards as well as original jazz tunes. Requests for specific songs can be made if they are well in advance of the performance date. The group is typically a quartet comprised of piano, drums, bass, and trumpet- however, other local musicians occasionally sit in with the group. The DZ Combo is perfect for background music at your party, fundraiser, or art show. The members of The DZ Combo love to share their music with an audience and never bring a poor attitude to a gig. Monetary compensation ensures the musicians that their time is appreciated, but The DZ Combo brings a positive outlook to sharing their music regardless of the budget for the event.
