Our Testimonials

Couldn’t thank the team from Sydney Jazz Collective enough for their absolutely fantastic night of toe-tapping, soul soothing, booty-shaking tunes. Tom and Matt were polite, professional and prompt to deal with. The guys were perfectly dressed for the theme of our event, arrived on time and most importantly truly played awesome tunes all night. Thanks so much for creating the perfect atmosphere for our event!

My sincere thanks for your work on the Premier’s Awards – the band sounded great. The night was a huge success and we have had very positive feedback from senior leaders in Government.

Mischa Warren, NSW Premier’s Awards for Public Service 
@ Sydney Town Hall

Please thank the boys for their amazing set last night at our wedding. We were incredibly impressed with their talent and skill. They really set the mood for our night and involved the guests with a stunning performance. We are very happy that they were part of our celebrations.

Barbara Dias, Wedding 
@ Centennial Parklands Dining

Quite honestly, the band were phenomenal. Not only were they able to organise and perfectly perform 5 different special song requests for our wedding reception entrance, especially in limited time to prepare, but the energy and buzz they gave to the to the room created an electrifying atmosphere through out the night. People all night were commenting on how good they were and how they wanted to hire them for their own functions. Thank you to sydney Jazz collective – you really helped bring the night alive and made our wedding just that extra bit more special 🙂

Sophia Kolnar, Wedding 
@ Sebel Kirkton Park, Pokolbin, Hunter Valley

Ben and I wanted to thank you so much for the exceptional music you played at our wedding at the Grounds earlier this month. We booked the Vocal Sextet and all of our guests commented during the night how fantastic it was to have such great live music playing in that beautiful garden – it just all came together. We couldn’t speak higher of your group – they were amazing. It was a perfect day for us and your team should be very proud of themselves, they are just fantastic at what they do. Cheers, Mr and Mrs Roberts!

Ben Roberts & Liz Zacka, Wedding 
@ Grounds of Alexandria

It was definitely at the upper end of our budget for a trio, but well worth the cash. Many other elements of the night were very stressful, so it was really nice how self-sufficient and professional the guys were – they just turned up and did their thing, and were definitely a hit.

Scott Moore, Illuminati Party @ Private Home

Sydney Jazz Collective performed at our Charity Ball. The band was highly talented and enjoyed by all our guests. Held on Halloween, the band was able to capture the theme and greatly enhanced the mood and tone of the evening. Our experience has been overwhelmingly positive from enquiry to booking and right through to the performance on the night. The band were on time, professional and most importantly, provided wonderful entertainment. Great communication and an empathetic understanding of our budget requirements were shown by management and we greatly appreciated the concessions given to us as a charity organisation. Sydney Jazz Collective comes highly recommended and we would not hesitate to book them again.

Charlene Vien, Rare Cancers Australia Fundraiser @ Intercontinental Hotel Sydney

My husband and I cannot recommend the Sydney Jazz Collective enough! From day one, they were incredibly friendly, helpful and approachable and really made us feel at ease throughout the whole process. They played perfectly to the atmosphere of our reception, and everyone kept coming up to us and telling us how great the music was! Excellent music performed by very talented and down-to-earth musicians.

Emma & Paul Goldrick, Wedding 
@ Sydney Yacht Squadron, Kirribilli

Thank you! Sydney Jazz Collective was absolutely phenomenal. I have mentioned you to a colleague who is getting married, as well as to many others! I can’t wait to use you guys again in the future, or to be at a function where you are playing!

Meg & Bosco McDowell, Wedding @ Peterson House, Pokolbin Hunter Valley

Thank you so much for playing at our wedding at the Park Hyatt. First off what a pleasure to deal with Tom, nothing was a problem, all calm all cool exactly what we needed leading up to and on the night. The music was brilliantly played and filled the space with the warm sounds we were after, thanks again for making our wedding day that extra bit special.

Garth & Grace Bell, Wedding @ Park Hyatt Sydney

Hi Tom and the band, Huge thank you to you and the brilliant group for being the icing on our totally magic wedding day. The Sydney Jazz Collective was superb! They really set the tone for our reception with their playlist and ensured that a good time was had by all. Sooo many of our guests commented on how awesome the duo and the band were. The look, feel and sound of the band were exactly what we were looking for and the quality and variety of the music was fantastic. This is the first ever family gathering where all my aunts and uncles and parents got up to boogie… truly boogie! My cousins and I were totally jaw-dropping shocked! Thank you again for making our day so much more memorable.

Margaret & Quinton Clark, Wedding @ Bradley’s Head Amphitheatre + Athol Hall, Mosman

We would like to thank Sydney Jazz Collective for the fantastic entertainment provided at the 2013 Mission Australia Employer Awards Gala Evening. You provided an atmospheric and sensitive performance, and your performers were of a very high calibre. In addition, dealing with Sydney Jazz Collective has been a dream – you have been responsive to all our requests, and helped the evening go off without a hitch. Thank you again!

Sarah Powell, Mission Australia Gala Awards 
@ Marriott Hotel, Circular Quay

It was an absolute pleasure to have Sydney Jazz Collective perform at our wedding. What a breeze!!!!! From contacting you for a quote through to receiving details, answering all my weird and wonderful questions and just letting the band ‘do their thing’. It was so nice to have that element of surprise when everything else in the day is so meticulously planned. And it was the right choice. The band just knew what to do. I wish I could’ve chatted to the guys for longer to say another few times ‘thank you’. We could not have asked for anything better. It was exactly what we wanted. I will certainly recommend you to anyone/everyone. Thank you for all your time and support, the whole process was truly so easy and hassle free, and thanks for contributing to the day that both Andrew and I deem as the best day of our lives.

Jill Farac & Andrew Creswick, Wedding 
@ Sergeant’s Mess, Chowder Bay

We were absolutely blown away by how talented and professional you guys were. We’ve had a lot of feedback since and during the wedding with the message that your band was so inspiring and fun. One of my mates became a fan of yours during the night and wanted to know what kind of sax you played! Weddings can be a roller coaster in many ways and your band was a blessing. Apart from bailing us out by agreeing to provide your quintet all night at short notice and getting Edoardo in the show, you managed to exceed expectations and get everyone dancing enthusiastically with ease. I was grateful for your wise and calm counsel in the lead up and am very impressed by how you lead your band.

Em & Jay Cooper, Wedding 
@ The Grounds of Alexandria

My now husband and I saw SJC play at a friends wedding a few years ago. We danced all night long and had such an incredible night. From that night we knew we had to have them at our wedding. So much so that they were the first thing I booked for the wedding, the week after we got engaged! SJC sure did deliver on the night, my guests couldn’t wait to dance and the dance floor was full all night. I just wish it didn’t have to end. They really made the night!

Monique Carceller & Andrew Tregent, Wedding 
@ Peppers Convent, Pokolbin

We were so happy to have Sydney Jazz Collective perform at our wedding. The band arrived at the wedding and set up with no fuss and were organised and ready to go in no time. Having booked the band without seeing them perform previously they managed to knock our socks off as soon as they started playing! They knew what to play and when with little or no instruction and they really got the dance floor going when the time was right! The band had also worked on their own version of our two requested songs for the ceremony and the first dance which were just perfect and the versions that they played will stay in our memories forever. We can’t tell you the number of guests that were raving about the band. We are so happy that we chose you out of all the bands we looked at. We really picked a winner!

Belinda Post, Wedding 
@ Mindaribba House

The Sydney Jazz Collective provided us with the utmost fundamental joy of our party. They offered pure professional live music & it was an absolute pleasure to have had them perform in our home. The trio chose a fantastic music selection, superbly suited to the occasion & our crowd. I would highly recommend them & definitely use them again. Thankyou.

Rebeka Marosszeky, Party 
@ Private Home

Thanks so much for performing at our wedding, we really appreciated it. We had great feedback from our guest on the music and we absolutely loved it! You guys were so professional and we will definitely spread the word as you guys ROCK!

Yoong and Lilia Yap, Wedding 
@ Sergeants Mess, Mosman

From start to finish, I was completely happy with booking SJC for our wedding. I was able to sample their live performances on their website, and listen to their talented musicians online before booking. Tom’s advice was invaluable, and we booked the quintet to get guests up and dancing. On the day, the band were brilliant, very professional, with a great sound, and entertaining everyone from grandparents to the kids. Our guests were very impressed with the music, and we will be recommending them to friends in the future.

Nikki Wong Doo & Nick, Wedding 
@ Bathers Pavillion, Balmoral

Hi, Tom. We would like to thank you and the band for playing at our wedding. Our wedding day was everything we wanted, but if I’m being picky I can honestly say that Sydney Jazz Collective was the only provider-element that was completely flawless. We didn’t even get a chance to see you play before we booked you, but you did everything your website and other testimonials claim – you are a talented group of musicians who know how to set the perfect mood for an event in a manner that is responsive to the changing dynamics of the night. Your versatility was truly impressive, and your musicianship and song choices provided a soundtrack with credibility to our evening. In addition, you were an absolute delight to deal with during all our preparations correspondence, and you were more than happy to meet all our special requests. So thank you so much. We will definitely use you again and recommend SJC to others.

Emilee Gilbert & Morten Boyer, Wedding @ Quay Restaurant, The Rocks

Dear Tom,

I now know why your website testimonials are so glowing. From my initial inquiry until the last chord was played at my daughter’s 21st last Saturday night I have been so impressed with your professionalism, communications and of course talent!

Everyone agreed that your live music far surpassed any DJ experiences that are often the norm at younger people’s parties. Your repertoire suited all tastes and reflected your flexibility in adapting to the mood and pace of the party. We especially appreciated your staying extra time at short notice.

I have never seen my daughter so happy and have no hesitation in recommending you and the Sydney Jazz Collective as a wonderful bonus to any event, especially when the organiser seeks class without pretentiousness. Your warmth and good humour and assistance with the provision of the cordless microphone for speeches were an added bonus for me. Thank you so much guys for ensuring the success of our night. I will never forget it or you!

Beverley Evans, Daughter’s 21st Birthday @ Maritime Museum, Darling Harbour

Nicola and I have just arrived back from our honeymoon, and we wanted to express just how incredible the band was on the night. From the outset, you created the perfect atmosphere – I was upset that we were so distracted with photo obligations that we weren’t able to enjoy the music with all of the guests! The music for our entrance was ideal. The song selections for the dance floor were similarly impeccable.

I must say that the band’s performance on the night exceeded my very high expectations! Every guest I have spoken to agreed that the band was one of the best aspects of what turned out to be a fantastic night.

We will certainly be recommending you to others, and will no doubt need your services again for some future function. Many thanks.

Greg & Nicola Johnson, Wedding @ Manly Golf Club

Hi Tom and the band,

Thank you so very much for a fantastic day!!! We LOVED the music, many of our guests have asked us where we found you and I am sure that they will book you for future events as will we. We are sorry we didn’t say a special thank you in our speech!! We thank you hugely in our heart though!!

You made our day so special, every request our guests made you delivered on. You guys are fantastic, thank you so much and we look forward to having you play at many future events.

Suzie Norp & Rob Lewis, Wedding @ Gunners Barracks, Mosman

I just wanted to say how absolutely fantastic the band was. I engaged the services of Sydney Jazz Collective for a corporate Gala Dinner for 500. Tom and the rest of the band were excellent, they not only sounded and looked fantastic they were extremely professional and helpful to me on the evening.

They arrived on time, dressed in theme as requested, followed the run sheet to a tee and provided me with some great suggestions – everything you want in order to make an evening run smoothly which it most definitely did. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sydney Jazz Collective for any event you may be holding and I would certainly engage in their services again.

Ingrid Arndt, IPAA National Conference Gala Dinner @ Doltone House, Pyrmont

Music was always an important component of the wedding for us, so we wanted to ensure that we got it right. We were confident the group was going to be good, based on the CVs on your website, but they really exceeded our expectations. Never have I been at a wedding where the dance floor was full the whole evening – even from before we had expected the dancing to kick off! As you had said, they picked the mood perfectly, did not play one song that people (of all ages) didn’t respond well to, and Jo’s performance was just stunning. Please also pass on my appreciation to her for playing the extra number at the end when the missing groom had reappeared!

I really can’t speak highly enough of the band. I’ve had so much positive feedback from the guests. I think a large part of the success of our reception was the music, which everyone could enjoy regardless of age and regardless of whether they were on the dance floor or just sitting and appreciating it.

My only complaint is that I had very sore feet by the end of the night because I couldn’t stop dancing! Thanks for being so efficient and professional to deal with and, most importantly, for providing such fabulous music at our wedding.

Sarah Giles & Damian Hoff, Wedding @ Peppers Manor House, Sutton Forest

We felt uneasy about booking live entertainment for our daughter’s christening and honestly did not know what to expect, it’s not really the type of thing you just go ahead and book without at least some type of recommendation through a friend. We took the plunge anyway and as the responses from our enquiries came back, it was clear very quickly, ‘Sydney Jazz Collective’ would be heading our way. Through my dealings with Tom, he made us feel very comfortable & was extremely professional, the experience was pleasurable and a lot easier than we had expected.

The performance was sensational! Sydney Jazz Collective added a touch of class and elegance to a great day, we couldn’t be any happier with how it all turned out. If you are even a little like us; appreciate quality sounds and are looking for a jazz band for a special event, but unsure who to choose or where to look – learn from our experience, Sydney Jazz Collective is who you want to use.

Tom I think the way you manage your customers, your band (and of course performance quality) was and is exceptional. Thanks for everything, good luck and see you next time.

Jeff, Daughter’s Christening

I wanted to thank you personally for the outstanding job done by yourself and your fellow musicians at the recent Maccabi Awards Dinner held at Bondi Beach. The atmosphere you created was superb for the style of function and as a result, as you know, I subsequently hired you for our family function. Once again you were a delight and really made a difference.

I will recommend you highly to my members.

Michael Vasin, CEO Maccabi NSW Awards Night @ Hakoah Club, Bondi

I had a fantastic time at my wedding back on the 11 April! Your band were very friendly and accommodating. They kept the room alive with great music at all times, and were most approachable. They asked if I wanted to request songs, and played all of them for us. They were perfect for the reception venue. The mood was relaxed, sophisticated and upbeat. Thank you.

Jacqueline Baines, Wedding @ Doltone House, Pyrmont

It was a great pleasure having you and your band members from Sydney Jazz Collective play for our Cocktail party at HMAS WATSON. The service was fantastic and we have kept you on file and will be using you again for future functions.

Thank you for everything.

Bernice Longstaff, Cocktail Party @ HMAS Watson, Watsons Bay

I just wanted to take the opportunity to say thank you to you and the Sydney Jazz Collective for providing fantastic musical accompaniment to the DLA Phillips Fox Celebrating the journey event at the Powerhouse Museum yesterday. Initial feedback has been very positive and I wanted to thank you for your assistance throughout the planning process and for the great music on the night. I will pass your details to my colleagues and hopefully there will be another opportunity to book the Sydney Jazz Collective.

Thanks again for contributing to the success of our event.

Thank you for everything.

Denise Cheng, DLA Phillips Fox Christmas Party @ Powerhouse Museum, Ultimo

Thank you so much for your great performance on our wedding on the 15th of March. We couldn’t expect a better night of entertainment and amusement.

Thanks to all of you guys, and hope be able to hire you again for a near future.

I will tell everyone about you.

I just wanted to say a quick thank you for the fabulous band that played at our house, they were brilliant. I work in marketing and quite often require entertainment so I will keep you in mind for future events.

I will tell everyone about you.

I look forward to our next opportunity to work with you guys again. Thank you.

Josephine Lau, 60th Birthday Party @ MV Pontoon, Sydney Harbour Cruise

We had a great night. The band was fantastic, and all our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The band created a great atmosphere and their music kept our guests tapping their toes, while enjoying the darling harbor views!

The band members were reliable, punctual, and very accommodative of our needs. I would highly recommend Sydney Jazz Collective for any corporate function!

Jennifer Moses, Nutricia Australia Cocktail Party @ Watershed Hotel, Darling Harbour

Thanks so much for your services on the night of our Brand Launch, I received extremely positive feedback from many people who were at the event and have passed on your details to a few of them. The music was really appropriate for the night and provided a great atmosphere and buzz to the whole event.

Please pass on our thanks to the rest of the band members. We will definitely book you again!

Ylana Mooring, THINK Education Group Corporate Function @ North Sydney

Just a quick note to let you know that everything went superbly with the Trio at our function on Wednesday night at the Amora Hotel. The music range and quality met our expectations, and I know that it was enjoyed by our attendees. The Trio were also very professional in the manner in which they set up and packed down, as well as being flexible with the timings when things were running late.

Please pass on my warmest thanks to the rest of the band.

Benseon Apple, Privacy Commission of Australia Corporate Function @ Amora Jamison Hotel, Sydney

Just dropping you a quick note to say thank you for helping me with such late notice on my wedding day. Despite the weather it was, yet again, another memorable day and your band did an excellent job. I received a lot of comments about the music and how it made the atmosphere very romantic for us. The band was very versatile and flexible with our changes.

With all of this, my husband and I thank you once again. We are both very appreciative and grateful that we had your band play (live music!!) at our special day. Many thanks.

Jo Lau, Wedding @ Dunbar House, Watsons Bay

Planning an event in another state is difficult, particularly without access to suppliers you are used to dealing with. I came across SJC via Google Search, and was very impressed from the start by the professionalism of the website communications and ease of obtaining a quote quickly. On the night the band arrived on time, dressed very smartly and took the initiative to use a piano available at the venue rather than their own keyboard knowing it would produce a better sound.

With very little direction the music perfectly suited the event. I was confident from the start that I would be happy with SJC, and was certainly not disappointed on the night. Thank you SJC for helping to make the event more successful with wonderful music and ambiance!

Stevie Halls, Business Spectator 1st Birthday Celebration @ Intercontinental Hotel, Sydney

These performers are no pub band, they were outstanding! I have had quite a few requests for your contact details and have forwarded them on. The community services team have said they would like to book you guys for the Burwood Festival next year too, so we will definitely be in touch again. Thank you very much.

Cory Nisbett, Enfield Olympic Pool 75th Anniversary @ Enfield Swimming Centre

Thanks so much Tom and SJC for such a great band. All our guests really enjoyed the music and commented on the band’s ability to set the most appropriate mood for our special day.

We found SJC very professional and were amazed by the ease of arranging the performance. SJC knew exactly what we were after and accommodated our needs – even an impromptu performance from the crowd!

Thanks again for all your help.

Adriana Casamento & Anthony, Wedding @ Ecco Ristorante, Drummoyne

Thanks so much for helping make our event a success. We were very happy with the quality of the music & received many compliments from the quests on our stand. It was very easy to deal with you guys in terms of making it all happen & your music made me really appreciate Jazz even more than before.

We will not hesitate to recommend you or contact you should we require a jazz band again.

Rozalb Naqshbandi, Essilor Australia Corporate Event @ Sydney Exhibition & Convention Centre

We just wanted to say thank you for contributing the music to another DLA Phillips Fox event – it was great to have you back! You and your band created the perfect atmosphere for our guests and was an important aspect of the evening.

It has been great working with you again and look forward to inviting you back for another event.

Rebecca Hembling, DLA Phillips Fox Corporate Entertainment @ Powerhouse Museum, Sydney

We thoroughly enjoyed the live entertainment of Sydney Jazz Collective on Saturday night. They were punctual, professional and most importantly, played great music.

I’d certainly recommend them to anyone who wants some high-quality live jazz to bring their event to life.

Thank you for being so great all night, we will definitely keep your details for when we have more functions (ill also recommend you to anyone who is looking for a jazz band!)

Honestly, I cant thank you enough. I know 4 hours of playing may become a little tedious, but you guys really were great sports and kept up the enthusiasm right until the end!

@ Warehouse, Pyrmont

Really great job Sunday… terrific sets and you pleased the crowd just right.

LeBinh Tu & Ryan Heng, Wedding 
@ Sergeants Mess, Mosman

We are extremely grateful that you accepted the booking for Savannah & Luke’s wedding. I know it was quite a distance for the band to travel however I hope you enjoyed yourselves as much as the wedding guests enjoyed listening & responding to Sydney Jazz Collective.

But seriously we couldn’t fault the band or the whole night. Everyone loved the band’s music; our next door neighbor hasn’t stopped talking about them. Our venue told us that in their history ours was the best function they have had. It was very relaxed but sophisticated, everyone mingled and the music went perfectly with the ambience of the evening.

In among our guests there were several engaged couples so hopefully there could be some bookings from them. We will certainly recommend Sydney Jazz Collective not just for the music but also because you are professional and reliable and friendly to deal with. Once again thank you so much for your contribution to a fabulous reception.

We just wanted to express our gratitude and appreciation for the band’s efforts in playing such fantastic music for our wedding. EVERYONE we spoke to (even the most harshest of critics) was highly impressed with the band, particularly Jo’s amazing voice!

We were really impressed with the band’s flexibility of starting and ending the sets to keep the “flow” of the reception going, and we definitely won’t hesitate to recommend Sydney Jazz Collective to anyone we know needing live music.

We also want to thank you, Tom, for your help with co-ordinating plans to make everything work just right on the night. It’s been a pleasure dealing with you, we had a magical day and please thank every member of the band so very much for being a part of it!

Nicholas Gan & Michelle, Wedding

Thank you so much for making our wedding day more memorable. My husband was so glad i had convinced him to have you guys play, he was very impressed as was I. The live Jazz music was FANTASTIC and added an elegant, relaxing feel for our dinner reception.

All our guest thoroughly enjoyed it very much. Also the songs we specifically requested for the three waltz were beautifully sung and played. I wish i had another wedding to plan so I could hear you play again. 🙂 We will definitely be recommending you to all our friends and family. Again a very big thank you 🙂

Golda Bormate & Chi, Wedding 
@ Waterview Convention Centre, Sydney Olympic Park

Thank you to you and your band for a wonderful night of music. Everyone loved it … pity our speeches went for so long as we would have loved to of heard more of you!!

Emily Stephenson & Paddy, Wedding 
@ Armidale Services Club

We booked Sydney Jazz Collective to play at our Wedding and were absolutely impressed with the performance they put in. Numerous guests advised us on how they loved the live music, additionally the band were on top of events throughout the day so there were no gaps or issues we needed to manage.

I was able to book Sydney Jazz Collective without having seen them play based on the samples Tom provided and the band well and truly lived up to these. The value for money, even when having for our reception in the Hunter Valley, was well and truly there, accordingly I’d highly recommend SJC!

Dino Edwards, Wedding 
@ Iron Bark Hill Estate, Pokolbin

We can not thank you and The Sydney Jazz Collective enough for making our wedding day so special. Your professionalism, care and beautiful music made the whole day so memorable.

We have had several of our guests comment on the sociable atmosphere your music created on the day and many more have asked for your contact details, which we have passed on. Thank you again for making our wedding so special and for sharing your talent and passion for music with us, it was amazing!

Monique McCloghry & Phil Laing, Wedding 
@ Yester Grange, Wentworth Falls

We booked SJC for our wedding after hearing them perform at a friend’s wedding. The guys are wonderful musicians and their music perfectly suited our black tie wedding. They matched their music to the mood of the evening as it changed from arrival to dining to dancing.

We were delighted that they were able to use an on-site piano at our reception venue and integrate it into their set. We wished we had more time on the night to just sit back and listen!

Espie & Gabrielle Watt, Wedding 
@ The Intercontinental Hotel, Sydney

Hi Tom,

Thank you so much for your performance on Tuesday, it really set the tone and created a wonderful warm and inviting atmosphere for our wine sale. The music really suited the crowd – we were so happy to have you there. Very impressed by your punctuality, professionalism and ‘jazzy’ get-up! Will definitely call you again for future events.

Mary Simpson, Independent Liquor Group (ILG) Winter Wine Sale 
@ ILG Wine Warehouse, Erskine Park

Thank you, we had a fantastic evening. The band were fabulous and I hope you will pass on our appreciation for contributing to a very successful event. The style of music you provided was just perfect for the evening. We had a lot of very positive feedback about the music and I would have no hesitation in recommending the Sydney Jazz Collective to others.

Ann-Maree Lynch, KMH Environmental Corporate Dinner 
@ Wharf Restaurant, Walsh Bay

My wife and I couldn’t have been happier with the performance by Sydney Jazz Collective. They were consummate professionals and seamlessly fitted in to our plans for the reception. The choice of songs throughout the evening was perfect and they even went so far as learn one of our favourite jazz pieces for us (and play it perfectly on the night). I couldn’t recommend them more highly. We’ll definitely be passing on your details to friends, and will book you again if/when the opportunity next arises.

Clementine Davidson & James Allan, Wedding 
@ Sergeants’ Mess, Chowder Bay

Hi Tom, just a quick note to thank you and your band for helping make the global launching of our two new yachts at this year’s Sydney Boat Show such a success!

I was not only impressed with your music but very much appreciated your positive attitude despite the rainy and not so ideal conditions on the night. It was certainly very unique having your live band playing in the cockpit of our 44 foot sailing catamaran, and certainly very memorable for all our guests. I would not hesitate to recommend you and your musicians to anyone looking for a top class Jazz band to give their function an awesome ambiance and special feel.

From my first inquiry which from memory was late on a Sunday afternoon, you have been available, friendly and responsive which helps take the stress out of organizing an event. Many thanks, and we look forward to seeing you again at our next function!

Kim McKee, Multihull Solutions Boat Launch 
@ Sydney Boat Show, Cockle Bay

@ Private Home

I just wanted to write to say how impressed we were with Sydney Jazz Collective. They were fantastic. Everyone was up dancing and was having a great time. They played all the songs I had requested at the right time and did the most sensational job.

I would recommend them to anyone. Some of our guests even asked who they were because they were that good. Thanks again for providing such awesome live music for our wedding!

Belinda Berto & James Riley, Wedding 
@ Woodbyne Boutique Hotel, Jaspers Brush

You guys were awesome!!! – fun, funky and upbeat, yet cool, groovy and relaxed. Definitely very professional and have no doubt you’re all properly trained musicians. It was fantastic having you guys there and the night definitely would not have been as good without you.

I will have no hesitation in recommending you if I hear of any friends/family/work colleagues etc looking to hire a great jazz band.

Tara O’Reilly, DEXUS Property Group Corporate Entertainment 
@ Lobby of Gateway, AXA Building

Thanks so much for providing the background atmosphere to the party. It was great to have a bunch of cool kats performing live! All our guests were very impressed.

You arrived on time, set-up without any fuss and were completely self organised. The music was first class and the musicians you assembled were a great bunch. I really enjoyed having the combination we choose. I hope we can do it again some time. Thank you.

Ian Porter, 50th Birthday Party 
@ Private Home

Just wanted to pass along my thanks to you and the band members. Once again the jazz duo were amazing and the ambiance created was perfect. We had a very successful evening and the music provided most certainly contributed greatly to the event.

I would have no hesitation in recommending the Sydney Jazz Collective to others for your great sound, reliability and overall professionalism. We will certainly be calling you again for our next function!

Ann-Maree, KMH Environmental Corporate Dinner

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Ant and I are so pleased that we decided to have SJC perform at our wedding, you couldn’t have fitted the bill more perfectly!

We can’t thank you enough for your contribution to what was honestly the best day of our lives! You’re a truly class act and added some real panache to our wedding. Luckily for us, we have a second wedding celebration in the UK to look forward to next year. Come to think of it, we don’t have the entertainment sorted out yet – fancy a trip to England?!

Cate Reynolds & Anthony Stuart, Wedding

Georgia Hopkins, Morgan Stanley Spring Party 
@ The Mint, Macquarie Street

I booked the Sydney Jazz Collective after finding their advertisement online, I was very impressed by their professionalism in confirming arrangements, and providing an outstanding selection of music that was perfectly suited to the atmosphere of our event.

Many of our guests commented on just how impressive the music was, and the wonderful tone that it set for the night. I would not hesitate to book them again!

Hayley Lia, Cormack Packaging Presentation Night 
@ Doltone House, Pyrmont

Thankyou so much to you and your band who provided live music at my wedding. They were just amazing and the talk of the night.

Kate Stone & Tim Carpenter, Wedding 
@ L’Aqua, Darling Harbour

Hi Tom, what a great night and so many people have commented on how enjoyable the band was. It really made the evening a great success, everything was just perfect – choice of music – it was terrific! Will certainly pass the word around and I’ll contact you again when we have some more functions. Again, many thanks.

Margaret Benjafield, St Vincents Hospital Christmas Party 
@ Stormanston House, North Sydney

I just wanted to write and pass on my personal thanks to the band; particularly the effort they put in to learning the ‘Pencil Full of Lead’ song; it was fantastic and made for a perfect first dance. The whole band performance was excellent; they performed each song not only professionally but with real zeal. They captured the mood of the reception perfectly, and really fitted in with our day.

We could not have been happier with the band and the choice of music played. My only gripe is that I wish we could do it all again! Many thanks.

Andrew & Helen Pope, Wedding 
@ Q Station, Manly

I’d just like to take this opportunity to thank you and Sydney Jazz Collective for performing at the recent ASC Media Awards. The band were friendly and professional, and their music created a fabulous atmosphere during our meal breaks & between presentations.

Hi Tom, Can you believe that I am back at work already?! No rest for the wicked here. Just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to yourself and the rest of the band for making Friday such a great night. The night would seriously not have been the night that it was if it hadn’t had been for Sydney Jazz collective. And a big thank you to your lovely vocalist too – what an amazing voice!

Thanks for being so professional and friendly and easy to deal with. I really hope that I have an excuse to book you guys again. All the best!

Sarah Moore, Wedding 
@ The Boathouse, Palm Beach

Thanks to the Sydney Jazz Collective for helping us create the perfect atmosphere for our Christmas Party. It’s often hard to select a band that will appeal to all ages and in the past this has caused us some trouble. I am relieved to know this will no longer be an issue!

Tom and the guys were so professional, played great music and fit seamlessly into the celebrations. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Anna Dampney, Rice Daubney Architects Christmas Party 
@ ECQ Bar, Sydney

I would like to say a big thank you to Sydney Jazz Collective for making our Christmas party a success. The sound was amplified perfectly across the crowd which had everyone bopping to the beats. The band members were very professional and good at engaging with the crowd.

The choice in songs was great and everyone was able to dance along to the music. Once again thank you for making our Chistmas party such a great success.

Sarah Dunphy, Addcom International Christmas Party

Everyone really enjoyed the jazz trio who played at Richard’s 50th. Booking was easy and so was set up at the party. Thanks so much for helping us to create a great atmosphere for a great party!

Sarah Mandelson, Serendipity Ice Cream Party @ Private Home

Thanks for much for the music on Wednesday! The music was exactly right, the right volume, the right feel, and we were all very happy with the choice so thanks to you and the band.

Damien Finniss, Wedding 
@ Pilu, Freshwater

These guys are just awesome!!! Very talented and professional musicians. The highlight of the wedding for many. Despite the fact that the dance floor was outside and it started raining – the band kept playing and the guests kept dancing. Fortunately the rain stopped – the dancing continued and the band even agreed to stay for an extra half an hour.

We had a five piece band with a singer – worth every penny!!! This is really a good place to invest some money to guarantee a brilliant reception! 5 Stars (Easyweddings Review)

Xavier McKenzie & Quinn Holland, Wedding 
@ The Gunners Barracks, Mosman

Thanks so much to you and your fellow musicians for playing at our wedding! It was a wonderful night and the music was just perfect – we couldn’t have wished for anything better. Although we are now in Hong Kong, I will be sure to spread the word about our great experience with the Sydney Jazz Collective. Thanks again Tom.

Nicola Castle, Wedding 
@ Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron, Kirribilli

Thank you Sydney Jazz Collective for putting on an amazing performance for Transfield Services last night. The instrumental trio (sax, guitar, bass) performing at a Board function at the Transport Exhibition in the Powerhouse Museum was just the right touch to ease our guests into a relaxed and convivial evening.

Your musicians arrived on time, set up discreetly and then performed professionally with flair and elegance – first class entertainment. Next time we organise a similar function, we will definitely call on Sydney Jazz Collective again, perhaps even adding one of your vocalists to the mix.

Eve Roberts, Transfield Services Corporate Function 
@ The Powerhouse Museum, Sydney

Thank you for your outstanding music at Helen’s wedding last Saturday. We all loved your jazz group with your upbeat & celebration-type style which created an excellent atmosphere for the wedding reception.

Richard & Eileen Chen, Wedding 
@ Villa Capri, Cabramatta

We have just returned from our glorious honeymoon and are enjoying reflecting on our wedding day. In particular the fabulous band!! We were thrilled with the music – lead vocalist was just gorgeous and the saxophonist was outstanding! I play saxophone myself and it was such a treat listening to such talent. We were really happy with the atmosphere that was created throughout the night and the volume was absolutely perfect. We had a few elderly guests at our reception and we were so happy that they all felt so comfortable. All of our song request were played and it was such a memorable experience dancing with my dad to “Georgia on My Mind” which was performed so beautifully.

I was also extremely impressed with the attentiveness of the band – it was beyond their scheduled playing time when I threw my wedding bouquet and seamlessly, they starting playing, “All the Single Ladies” – it was perfect!! We were happy with the iPod song choices they played between sets and I was very impressed with how accommodating they were to play our Bridal Waltz from our iPod. We received multiple compliments throughout the evening from our guests who were highly impressed with the band’s musical talents, volume and pace of the evening – it was very hard to get people off the dance floor!! Thank you all very much for making our wedding night extra special and there are many of our guests (and ourselves!) who will be using you again!!

Apologies if this is too long but Sam and I were so so happy with the music (absolutely can’t fault it in any way) and we literally have not stopped receiving compliments from many people about the music! Thank you so much for making our night so special and memorable – what a perfect night. All the very best and many thanks again.

Sam & Georgia Black, Wedding
 @ Pacific Club, Palm Beach

Thanks again for providing such a wonderful evening of musical entertainment. You all were amazing. Hannah was over the moon with your sound and it made her 21st party an evening to remember. Thank you for being on time, being sensitive to how the evening was progressing and providing that extra song at the end of the night. If we ever need music for another function you will definitely be the first ones we call. I am more than happy to recommend you to anyone who will listen.

Bev Cameron, Daughter’s 21st 
@ Private Home

You did a brilliant job at providing a wonderful sense of ambiance. We will definitely recommend you and remember you for any future events that may come up. Many many thanks.

Paris Neilson & Todd Buncombe, Wedding 
@ Fort Denison, Sydney Harbour

I convinced my wife to have a live band on our wedding and she wasn’t disappointed. As someone who engaged the services of live bands for Masonic functions, I know that live music is the way to go if you want your guests to have an enjoyable and memorable night that they will remember! We visited several band shows to find the right one for our wedding but my mum ended up finding Sydney Jazz Collective!

I opted for the 6 piece including a female vocalist and my wife and I are very impressed with the results. Great music impressive talented musicians and very professional.Our guests enjoyed it very much and we are extremely happy that we had Sydney Jazz Collective to play on the day of our wedding. Rest assure that I will recommend SJC and definitely have them again for future engagements. Tom, thank you very much and please pass on our warmest regards to the team!

We had Sydney Jazz Collective play at our wedding in November 2011. They were extremely easy and professional to deal with and were just fabulous on the night. Our wedding guests totally enjoyed themselves and we keep getting messages from them about how good the band was. Sydney Jazz Collective completely understood our music requirements and would totally recommend them for any special events. Thanks guys – we very much loved having you play at our wedding, and we will be sure to recommend Sydney Jazz Collective for future events.

Wendy Zhang, SW Realty Corporate Christmas Party
 @ Hilton Hotel, Sydney

Thank you so much Tom & SJC for playing at our wedding at Mandalay, Lane Cove. The jazz duo was fantastic with a great repertoire! Our last minute decision to have live music and selecting SJC to play at our wedding was one of the best decisions ever – the vibe created by SJCs performance throughout the reception was fabulous and cheery, it was a very happy and fun mood befitting a lunchtime wedding. We still look back and recall fond memories of the day. Many (at each table we visited!) have all remarked that the music and tunes were absolutely great and we have passed on your information. One regret we both have is that we did not manage to personally speak to you and meet you during the reception – please accept our apologies! We would definitely love to have you again at any future event that we plan and will continue to spread the word to Sydney friends & family 🙂 Thank you once again for the swift and professional communication which made the planning go extremely smoothly!

PS: my husband Kev now has developed a great liking and affinity for instrumental jazz music thanks to you 🙂

Kim Tan & Kevin Leong, Wedding 
@ Mandalay Receptions, Lane Cove

We retained the services of The Sydney Jazz Collective for my wife’s 40th birthday. Ours was a small group of 30 people in a private dining room and the trio that attended were excellent. From the time of first contact, to selecting the play list and then dealing with the band on the night, I found Mr. Abbott and his team to be professional, accommodating and friendly. The guests and I were thoroughly impressed and I would have to say that The Sydney Jazz Collective band played a big part in the evening being a success. I would have no hesitation in using them again and I can sincerely recommend them to anyone who wishes to add some ‘class and polish’ to their next function.

Nicholas Tsanas, Wife’s 40th Birthday 
@ Wildfire, Circular Quay

We were delighted with the music the band provided. They were very considerate of the size of the venue and the age of the guests and played accordingly. The choice of music was excellent and they were always aware of what was going on, knowing when to pause or have a break. Their professionalism was obvious to all and our guests also loved the music. We couldn’t have been happier with them and would use them again in a heart beat. Thank you and kindest regards.

Lynne Low, Husband’s 60th Birthday 
@ Terrace Bar, Balgowlah

We really enjoyed the evening! The music perfectly fitted the mood of the party, and the crowd stayed on talking late into the night. We would (& have) heartily recommend Sydney Jazz Collective’s instrumental trio to anyone wanting a sophisticated mellow night and a good time. Thanks!

Brian Street, Son’s 21st Birthday 
@ Private Home

Wow – the band was INCREDIBLE!!! The music was amazing and they created such a fantastic atmosphere getting everyone on the dance floor and singing along. We are still buzzing from the Wedding and can’t stop talking about it! We absolutely loved it!!! Thanks so much guys.

Simon Shoebridge & Alexandra Pilton, Wedding 
@ Park Hyatt Sydney

We were so very happy with the musicians and the vocalist. The music selection for the cocktail party was very appropriate and exactly what we had asked for. The vocalist had a lovely voice. Most impressive, though, was how accommodating they all were! They had to move around several times, and did not bat an eyelash at any time. First, they had to move from the ceremony area to the cocktail party area. Then when the guests all moved outdoors, they willingly obliged and moved with the party. Very impressive display of kindness and customer service.

Thanks again, and I will certainly keep your contact details for the future! With much appreciation.

BJ Macatulad, Celebration Ceremony & Cocktail Party 
@ Bathers Pavilion, Balmoral

Sydney Jazz Collective were superb and created a wonderful ambiance for our cocktail party style wedding. The medley with the bag piper was especially cool!

 @ Gap Bluff Centre, Watsons Bay

These guys are so cool. Their musicality is first class. They’re seriously talented and they know how to make a party come alive.

We just loved the awesome energy and atmosphere they brought to our special day. Perfect!

Thank you so much for playing at our daughter’s wedding last Saturday. The music was perfectly pitched to the audience and the occasion and made the reception all the more memorable.

We would like to say a big thank you to you and the band members for creating such a fantastic atmosphere at our wedding.

Our guests all had so much fun on the dance floor, especially my four year old nephew who has now been asking his mum to buy him a drum set! We will definitely be passing on your details to friends who are having events in the future. Thanks again and all the best,

They really created a fantastic mood and all the guests complimented the music. Thank you again, kind regards.

Trevor & Boronia Morison, Wedding 
@ Park Hyatt Sydney, The Rocks

I just wanted to say a huge “thank you” for organizing a fantastic jazz quartet for our Christmas function at Gunners last Friday. It was just what we wanted and I have to say, having a professional music background myself (former flautist with the ACO), the quality was excellent! We hope to use your services again next year. Until then, wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!

Sophie Rae, Boroughs Australia, Corporate Entertainment 
@ Tea Room Gunners’ Barracks, Mosman

A special thanks to the guitarist Charlie for accommodating our music preferences for the bridal entrance and the register signing. All our guests thoroughly enjoyed the music, as did we, and we will definitely be recommending you to others in the future. Many thanks.

Rue Liu & James Chatfield, Wedding 
@ Gunners Barracks, Mosman

The Jazz Dinner Dance is one of St Paul’s Colleges most prized and anticipated events in their calendar year. As the name of the event suggests, this meant we needed a Jazz band. Saying this though, there was quite a strict criteria of qualities that we needed the band to have in order for the night to run smoothly so the search for this ‘perfect’ band had become quite stressful. Sydney Jazz Collective matched these needs perfectly by being: – Able to fit our budget as you provided the best quality service for the best price – Easy to communicate with, Tom Abbott was a good mix of professional and casual in all communication, listened to all our needs and always did what he said he was going to do – Flexible on the night to play around dances and other entertainment and play for the extra hour that we ended up needing at the end of the night because everyone was loving the music so much – Able to follow the vibe of the crowd and notice when to move from the more formal jazz music to the dancey classics – Able to set up and perform in an organised manner without needing to badger us for information. Overall, the band was so easy to work with. Everyone enjoyed their work and we would be more than happy to work with them again and recommend them to anyone else that is looking for something similar. Thanks again.

Alex Sharp, Jazz Dinner Dance 
@ St Pauls College, Sydney University

We asked the Sydney Jazz Collective to play at our engagement party in Sydney, and they were so fantastic, that we asked them if they would consider playing for us again at our farm wedding on the East Coast of NSW. Tom was very professional to communicate with and the band fitted seamlessly into the events of the day. You’d only have just noticed their arrival and moments later relaxed jazz sounds filled the garden as our guests helped themselves to champagne. They knew how to pick the mood of the crowd, whether it was to fill the gaps between conversation or to get the party moving with some more well known contemporary grooves to fill the dance floor as the night got going. We also asked them to play live the song for our first dance – Angus & Julia Stone’s “The Wedding Song”. We had not heard their rendition before we took to the dance floor and were bowled over by how soulful and rich it sounded, and later, all the glowing comments from our guests indicate that we weren’t the only two impressed. We are definitely going to recommend you to our friends.

The entire experience was great – the band was absolutely awesome! The only regret we have was that it was too short. For the moments we did manage to catch, it brought such a smile to our faces. All our guests complimented on how fantastic the music was and kept asking for the name of the band that was playing. Thank you again for everything! 5 Stars (Easyweddings Review)

I’ve been meaning to write for ages to thank the band for an amazing performance at our wedding at Pilu on the 1st of March. Being the bride, meant I had a whirlwind day and didn’t get to thank the band for how amazing they were at creating the perfect atmosphere for us. Everyone was in the swing of it all, largely due to the band keeping everyone going. It all went so very fast, I wished we could have spent another 5 hours just listening to the band play and enjoying the music. Your team seamlessly put on the songs we needed played from the ipad for the entry / wedding dance etc. without instruction at all. Brilliant effort. Please pass on Chris and my thanks to everyone involved. We both have commented many times since the wedding that it was money well spent. I’m hoping someone I know books you guys soon so that I can relax and enjoy it! Thanks again

Chris & Tessa Campbell, Wedding 
@ Pilu On The Beach, Freshwater

We had a lovely day it could not have gone better with fabulous weather, celebrating with friends and family and wonderful music. The Sydney Jazz Collective were absolutely fabulous! The music really set the scene and we were very impressed with the band by going out of their way to learn an italian folk song that is very dear to the italians that attended the celebration. Both Neil and I were touched by all the italian songs you played and the guests were up and dancing !! Thank everyone for their great efforts !!

Gloria & Neil Olivieri, Wedding 
@ Orso Restaurant, The Spit, Mosman

Having a party with a wide range of age groups and different personalities was made seamless by the live band. Sydney Jazz Collective had everyone in the mood and moving in one way or another the entire evening. Headed up by a dynamic lead singer Edoardo, the band provided great entertainment the entire night to provide the perfect mix of energy and fun for our special event. The music was exciting and original, interactive and personable. A fantastic experience was had by all! Thank you.

Total Image Group Team, Gatsby Themed Office Christmas Party @ Warehouse in Marrickville

We had a great day and everyone commented on the band – I think Tanya (the venue owner) is putting the Jazz Collective down on their recommended list. The Jazz Collective really made the evening so special, the band was so accommodating and did everything they could to set the right atmosphere.

Erika & Will Raxworthy, Wedding 
@ Peats Bite, Brooklyn

On behalf of Edward, Isabelle and our family, I’d like to pass on our thanks to the band members who played at our reception last night. The music was fantastic – exactly what we wanted if not more. Once again, thanks very much the great and memorable experience!

@ L’Aqua, Cockle Bay Wharf, Darling Harbour

What a breeze!!! My entire experience with Tom & the Sydney Jazz Collective band was perfect. The band were amazing, I just let them “do their thing” and they totally nailed it. What an amazing aspect of the day. If you book SJC you will not be disappointed. 10 out of 10. (Easyweddings Review)

@ Sergeant’s Mess, Chowder Bay

The Sydney Jazz Collective performed at our Great Gatsby party, they all came dressed in theme and their music set the mood as soon as guests arrived. The female vocalist voice was perfect for this event, and the guests thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment. We would most certainly recommend them for anyone looking for that authentic jazz feel.

Greta Smith, Great Gatsy Party 
@ Private Home

I had the pleasure to celebrate my 40th birthday with mellow background tunes and cool jazz provided by the sax-piano duo of the SJC. Throughout the night I was asked many times by my guests: “Where did you find these guys? They are fantastic!” Well, I did the same as you may be just doing – looking for a professional band that can provide classy and stylish music for a night to remember. I found this web site and felt from beginning to end that I was in good hands. The duo provided the right atmosphere for my special night where we all dressed up along the Film Noir theme as Jazz Cats, Gumshoe Detectives and Gangsters. Thanks guys, you were the cream on the cake!

Sebastian Pfautsch, 40th Birthday (1930s Film Noir Theme) 
@ Imperial Peking, Circular Quay

The band was great. They played very tasteful selections and, importantly for the smaller style of room, were not overly loud. The singer was marvellous and the instrumentals also. Everyone who came said likewise, they were very happy we chose the Sydney Jazz Collective and not some noisy rock band!

Jonathan Shearman, Son’s Wedding 
@ Mercure, Hunter Valley Gardens, Pokolbin

We enjoyed Sydney Jazz Collective very much and heard nothing but positive feedback from our guests. They were definitely one of the highlights of the night and would be most happy to recommend you to anyone who’s interested, so please thank the band on our behalf.

We are pleased to inform you that the Save Our Sons Charity Gala Dinner that took place on Saturday at Royal Randwick was a huge success. We have received a vast amount of positive feedback and were able to raise a considerable amount of money for the charity. We would like to thank your team for being apart of the SOS event. The duo were very professional and their performance contributed greatly to the mood and atmosphere in the VIP lounge. We look forward to working with you again in the future.

Just came back from our honeymoon last night. Thank you so much for playing at our wedding reception . I had such a wonderful time and SJC definitely contributed to that fact. From the initial contact, Tom was professional and made sure all my concerns were addressed. My first dance request was executed perfectly and my groom was pleasantly surprised with the song arrangement. If you’re looking for an amazing sounding band, look no further. SJC are definitely worth every dollar! Will recommend you when friends are looking for a live band to play for any event!

Lorie Miranda & Michael Ho, Wedding 
@ Le Montage Function & Events, Lilyfield

Vapiano on King Street decided to use Sydney Jazz Collective for our Opening Night VIP Party and we extremely happy with their performance. They had a range of music which suited our night perfectly, light and easy from the start of the night through to late in the night where people were up dancing. A great night enjoyed by all. Thanks!

Will Cooke, Opening Night VIP Party 
@ Vapiano Restaurant, York St, Sydney

Cecelia and I would like to thank you for your incredible performance at our wedding. Music was a very important part of the wedding for us, we had high standards and having arranged the wedding from London we appreciate your professionalism throughout. When we arrived at the reception we were bombarded by compliments from the guests on the band, and we could see why when we sat down for dinner and got to hear it for ourselves! You clearly managed to create a really nice atmosphere through the drinks, the food, the first dance & then the party, and also struck a great balance across age ranges. Thank you for making our special day that bit more perfect, we wouldn’t hesitate recommending you to others.

Matt & Cecelia Storer, Wedding 
@ Sergeant’s Mess, Chowder Bay

Hello Tom and Sydney Jazz Collective, Pavle and I would like to say a very BIG thank you for the amazing music you played for us at our reception. It was perfect in every way, except the fact that we could have danced till the early hours of the morning if it were possible! The comments and feedback that we received for you all was amazing and we want to thankyou for your fabulous skills, in not only playing your music but in gauging the audience during the evening. Please pass on our thanks to all the band members.

Lindy & Pavle Kuburic, Wedding Reception 
@ Sergeants Mess, Chowder Bay

Thankyou for helping make my birthday party a magical night. Everyone has commented how much they loved the music. David and I would already like to book you for another function. That should be taken as a sign as to how much we enjoyed the music. I do hope you will be available!

The band was fantastic on the evening and enjoyed by all! They really helped set the scene with their ambient tunes for our store launch. Thanks again and we’ll definitely keep Sydney Jazz Collective in mind for our future events!

Danielle Clennar, New Fossil Store Launch 
@ QVB Sydney

The Sydney Jazz Collective played at our wedding and reception in the Southern Highlands in December 2013. In the lead up to the day, Tom was very responsive and easy to deal with. He was only too happy to assist in making our day as special as we hoped. He was exceptionally professional. The band learnt the music we requested at the ceremony and played it beautifully. The reception music got everyone on the dance floor – young and old. You can’t ask for more than that at a wedding.

Brad Burden & Holly Hearne, Wedding 
@ Burrawang School of Arts, Southern Highlands

We really enjoyed the Sydney Jazz Collective performing at our Christmas Party. Having a live band really set the tone and, when they weren’t “bopping along” to the music whilst dining, some of our team got up and had a dance. A couple of our people also had a little sing along with the band, which was great fun. The repertoire of the band was excellent and we had a great night. We will certainly keep your details on file and are happily telling people what a great band you are.

Cassandra Mow, Mimo Corporate Christmas Party Entertainment 
@ Q Station, Manly

I am delighted to say our luncheon was a complete success and all went to plan. A huge thanks must go to the Opera House, and of course our wonderful musicians. The selection of music was perfect. I believe our committee has engaged you on previous occasions and I can see that continuing.

Vivienne Cumming, NSW Combined Insurers Luncheon 
@ Sydney Opera House

The band were fantastic. Very professional, easy to deal with, accommodating and their performance was top notch. I have had many comments from the guests saying how much they enjoyed the band from the oldest wedding guests to the younger guests. It is fair to say we were absolutely ecstatic to have them perform on our special day.

Peter & Liz Corbett, Wedding @ Moby Dick’s, Whale Beach

Working with the Sydney Jazz Collective was an absolute pleasure from beginning to end. Communication was clear and professional, and Tom was very happy to accommodate my request for some jazzy Christmas carols! The band’s music helped create the perfect seasonal mood for our cocktail party, and I look forward to booking the Collective again in the future.

Katie Wilson, TAL Life Insurance, Corporate Christmas Party @ TAL Head Office, Sydney CBD

Andrew and I wanted to write and thank you for performing at our wedding. We really appreciated your flexibility at accommodating our requests, and playing John Legend for the entrance song was great! Overall, you created a great atmosphere and ambience that suited the feel and tone of our day perfectly.

Thanks so much for the beautiful music! We will definitely recommend you for other events. Thanks again.

Mark Story & Claire Wilkinson, Wedding @ Deckhouse, Woolwich Dock

The band were as great as they were last time! We really enjoyed it. Thank you so much! I would recommend them to other companies, family or friends for a Jazzy event. The lead singer is amazing, you can see the passion from her beautiful voice! They were all fantastic. I also wanted to know if the band play together at public music venues? [We certainly do!] Thank you.

Hadeel Alamer, Sirona Dental, Corporate Launch @ Company Headquarters, St Leonards

Hi Tom it’s Isaac Esposito. Symone and I just wanted to thank you and the guys for your awesome job last night. The atmosphere was the best and people couldn’t stop commenting on how great you guys were. You were so good to deal with and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Loved it – thanks! [SMS]

Isaac & Symone Esposito, Wedding @ Doltone House, Sylvania Waters

I recently had the very good fortune to use Sydney Jazz Collective for my birthday celebration at my home. We had 65 guests for dinner to celebrate my 52nd birthday. I found the band to have a very professional approach and a great sound. It was very obvious they had a wealth of experience in keeping up a very good supply of music appropriate to the occasion. The choice of music had many of the guests off their chairs and up on the dance floor, thus contributing to the sense of occasion. The lead singer did a marvellous job delivering the lyrics to different styles of music and impressed everyone at the function. A special mention also to the keyboard player, saxophonist and drummer for their great musicianship. All in all it was a delight to have them at the house performing and entertaining the guests. I have received many cards of thanks, particularly mentioning the band as a highlight of the night.

Sylvia Hrovatin, Birthday Party @ Private Home, Bronte

These guys were amazing. They took our chosen song and sung it perfectly! My only regret is that we didnt organise to have it recorded to listen to later. They can really work a crowd! I dont think my mum has ever danced so much in her life. Thanks guys! 5 Stars (Easyweddings Review)

Nicole & David Forrester, Garden Wedding @ Deckhouse, Woolwich Dock

Just wanted to say thank you very much to Sydney Jazz Collective for the FANTASTIC music on Saturday evening at my 1970’s tennis soirée. Our guests could not keep their feet off the dancefloor and said the music (plus the Moët!) absolutely made it the best party they’ve been to in years. Thank you so so much!

Lucie Clark, Birthday Party @ Private Home, Rose Bay

Monique Tregent, Hunter Valley Wedding @ Peppers Convent, Pokolbin

Thank you so much for the brilliant music you provided for us last Saturday at the Park Hyatt!

If we have another event in Sydney, or know someone who is, we will definitely contact you again. Thanks again.

Ben Mather, Grandmother’s 90th Birthday @ Park Hyatt, Sydney

The band was fabulous, performing high quality music which integrated perfectly with the other elements of the evening. We were thrilled by the number of guests who came up to us after the event to express their appreciation of the music. Thanks again for a totally professional service.

Tony McClelland, Rotary Annual Dinner @ Avondale Golf Club, Pymble

We were so thrilled with the band on the night and really couldn’t have asked for anything more. The song choice was great which kept everyone up on the dance floor! and they did a great performance of our wedding song! The music during the drinks ensured the night got off to a great start and the music during dinner provided the perfect atmosphere while still allowing people to chat. Please pass on our thanks to the entire band. We really did have a spectacular night!

Kate Treloar & Douglas Martin, Wedding @ Royal Sydney Golf Club, Rose Bay

Both myself and all our guests thoroughly enjoyed the music and it was very appropriate as it enhanced the mood and really complimented the family event.

Benn & I would just love to say how much we enjoyed the band’s performance! We will definitely be hiring the band again for more special events in the future. After the wedding, so many guests that were in attendance, complimented us on choosing such great entertainment for the night. And so many said how fun and great the band was. The Sydney Jazz Collective did a fantastic job at our wedding and we will certainly be referring them to any future events for ourselves, or family and friends that need entertainment. Once again, we thank you for doing such an amazing job. Kindest Regards.

Courtney & Benn Harper, Wedding @ Eschol Park House

We were so lucky to have the Sydney Jazz Collective play at our wedding. From beginning to end the team’s professionalism was incredible! As I walked down the aisle I knew our duo were going to be amazing! Needless to say they were a hit with the crowd. Jo and Charlie were absolutely amazing! The music selection was perfect for our venue, and we found ourselves just enjoying our favourite tunes. I only wish we had more time to express our gratitude to the band, so I’d like to say a BIG thank you! Thank you once again for joining us on our special day! We will definitely be recommending you guys in the future!

I wanted to send you a note to say thank you so much for everything. It was so great working with you and the team – you made life very easy for us in the lead up and nothing was a problem. Loved the male vocalist roaming through our guests singing – it was a highlight! We have had some great feedback and will definitely pass on your contact details as well as work with you again. Many thanks.

Natalie Butler, Universal Sony Home Entertainment Event @ State Theatre, Sydney

To say that the Sydney Jazz Collective are superb just doesn’t seem enough! Having grown up playing multiple musical instruments from a young age, music has always been an important part of my life and due to this, was going to be an important part of our wedding. From the moment I saw the Sydney Jazz Collective website, I knew they were the band for our wedding. They came as a recommendation from the restaurant where we were getting married and were the only band we looked at in the end. We didn’t need to look anywhere else and they were just perfect. There is nothing I could fault, from the website with the live recordings, to the communication with the band and the organisation for the day. They were very professional and friendly, and so easy to deal with. I didn’t feel the need to guide them with what songs we wanted them to play, they just seemed to know exactly what we wanted and helped set the atmosphere that we wanted for our wedding. We had so much wonderful feedback from our guests of how fantastic the band was. The only complaint we had was that as Sydney had had the first sunny day in over a month, our guests were torn between being outside on the balcony lapping up the sunshine with the incredible view, or being inside dancing away to the band. I have no hesitation in recommending the Sydney Jazz Collective, and can’t thank them enough for bringing that extra special something to our special day.

Hayley & Warwick Cotterill, Wedding @ Bathers Pavilion, Balmoral

Just wanted to compliment you on your work last night. The tone of the music was just right. I know that you added an extra touch of class to the evening. Thanks for all your work.

Will definitely recommend to others and keep you guys in mind for future events!! Thank you very much.

Abigail Hopkins, Wedding @ Bathers’ Pavilion, Balmoral Beach

Jo and the team were lovely to deal with on the night and really went out of their way to make things work out brilliantly (esp. as our day had to be rearranged on the fly due to weather).

Lachlan James & Claudia Kaye, Wedding @ Simmer on the Bay, Dawes Point

I was so delighted that my bridal waltz was to That’s All played by Jazz Collective. Keep hearing from family and friends how amazing the singer was as she has such a beautiful strong voice and the band brought such class and elegance to the atmosphere. I heard Jazz Collective 5 yrs ago at a friend’s wedding and was so impressed back than and still am today. Thank you for making our day even sweeter by playing for us.

Mira & Kane Williams, Wedding @ Centennial Parklands Restaurant

Fab band sooo helpful in the lead up to our wedding day helped select songs that would suit our day & were completely honest and upfront about the sound and richness of the group (we selected a duo and had listened online to a 4-5 piece band which does sound slightly different). Professional on the day and the sound and songs were perfect, suited the mood exactly!

Catherine Bennett, Wedding @ Gunners Barracks, Mosman

We were really happy with the music and our guests thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance that the band created.

Jennifer Reeves, ANZGOSA Medical Dinner @ Sydney Opera House Marquee

Tom and the Sydney Jazz Collective were absolutely fantastic & really know how to make an event swing.

Andy Fowler, Wedding @ Deckhouse, Woolwich

Quite honestly, the band were phenomenal. Not only were they able to organise and perfectly perform 5 different special song requests for our wedding reception entrance, especially in limited time to prepare, but the energy and buzz they gave to the to the room created an electrifying atmosphere through out the night. People all night were commenting on how good they were and how they wanted to hire them for their own functions. Thank you to Sydney Jazz Collective – you really helped bring the night alive and made our wedding just that extra bit more special.

Sophia Kolnar, Wedding @ Sebel Kirkton Park, Pokolbin

A number of the people at the party wanted to know where the musicians came from as they are contemplating their own events. Even employees at the club asked for the contact details …these guys were great!!

The band was very professional and pitched the right tone of music for the event. I received good feedback from a number of our event attendees.

Paul Holt, Corporate Event @ MCA, Quayside Room

I first heard them play at Liberty Place on my lunch break and instantly loved their music so I gave my business card! We had an acoustic guitarist during our ceremony and the first part of the reception. Ollie was amazing! The music he played was perfect for our relaxed beach wedding. He even made his own arrangement for this special song I wanted as I was walking down the aisle it brought me to tears it was magical! Thank you for making our big day absolutely perfect!

Michelle Bernardo, Wedding @ Watsons Bay Hotel, Watsons Bay

Very friendly staff, beautiful music, created a great atmosphere.

Thank you! The band was great. Perfect for our event.

Jessica Hannaford, Corporate Event @ The Island, Sydney Harbour

We were blown away by how amazing Sydney Jazz Collective were at our wedding – thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! People are still talking about how great the music was and how lovely the people in the band were – including our other suppliers. What struck everyone was how they balanced the cool sophisticated sound of jazz with the latest music (Daft Punk!) and kept the dance floor full all night. Massive crowd pleaser – we never even got to serve our sticky wine as no-one was left at the tables. Even my 87 yr old uncle ditched his walking frame for a boogie! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Esther Pedersen, Wedding @ Bunnamagoo Estate, Mudgee

Very reliable. Great music. Thank you.

Michelle Beattie, Corporate Event @ Quay, Sydney

All the guests raved about how great the Sydney Jazz Collective was and are still talking about you a month after the wedding.

Jacqui Hyne, Wedding @ Q Station, Manly

They were great and surprised me with a song request that I thought they could not do. They were setup on time and were lovely to all of our guests. Overall great comments throughout the day and definitely a great choice. Thanks guys!

Michael Ullio, Wedding @ Gunners Barracks, Mosman

Very professional, easy to work with, and outstanding musicians. 10/10 would recommend.

Ryan Thomas, Corporate Event @ Berkshire Hathaway, Sydney

The music was really good, great choice of songs, not too loud, and created an wonderful atmosphere and backdrop for our celebration. We had many comments from our friends attending on how good the band was. It was just perfect and I wouldn’t hesitate to use the Sydney Jazz Collective again.

Mark Allaby, 50th Birthday Party @ Roseville Chase

Fab job! We’ll have you back anytime!

Victoria Louis, Member Entertainment @ The Epping Club, Epping

Fab band, sooo helpful in the lead up to our wedding day helped select songs that would suit our day and were completely honest and upfront about the sound and richness of the group (we selected a duo and had listened online to a 4-5 piece band which does sound slightly different). Professional on the day and the sound and song was perfect, suited the mood exactly.

Catherine Bennett, Wedding @ Gunners Barracks, Mosman

Sydney Jazz Collective were a great fit for our Winter Blues and Jazz Festival.

Kellie Purcell, Public Entertainment @ Memorial Park, The Entrance

Just wanted to say thank you to Sydney Jazz Collective for performing at our wedding. Unfortunately we personally didn’t get to hear too much of your wonderful playing but our guests thoroughly enjoyed the show and wouldn’t stop raving to us about your performance!

Sanjay Hettige, Wedding @ Sergeants Mess, Mosman

My new husband and I just wanted to say a huge thank you for providing us with the best band we could have asked for our big day. They were brilliant and had everyone up and dancing the whole time as well. It was also fantastic how we were able to dance our wedding waltz to the live band, even though we had no practice with them (except for 3min before doors) and had to slow the tempo down – it worked out beautifully! You all should be commended on how easily and professional you are to work with, and the band were very flexible with timing on the night (we had a lot of things happening that required them to not stick to the standard 45min sets – so a big thank you to them for this!). Even though it’s been almost 6 weeks since the wedding, we are still getting feedback from our guests on how great a day it was and in particular the music. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you again and we look forward to using you again in the future for a big celebration!

Scott & Nina Bowern, Wedding @ The Tea Room, QVB Sydney

The dance floor was full the whole night and that is exactly what we wanted, one big party. We requested some songs and left the rest up to them. The band moved the night along and all our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves. They made sure to play music for all age groups so everyone could equally get involved and relate. Highly recommended.

Kate McCullough, Wedding @ Gerringong Surf Club, Gerringong

Sydney Jazz Collective Band were faultless, they delivered above and beyond. They were part the great things that happened. We gave them a small brief and they certainly delivered, even learning a song for us and playing any of our guests requests. We hired the band for the whole day starting with two musicians and then expanded to five for the evening which lifted the volume and started the party. They made it easy and we received so many great reviews from our guests.

Bradley Field, Wedding @ Freshwater Beach SLSC, Freshwater

What can I say, the Band were perfect for my Great Gatsby event. I had many comments from my family and friends. They even adjusted their keys to some songs to make my 13 year old daughter sound great when she sang her 3 songs. Thanks so much I could not have asked for anything better, the band was magical and they made my night. Thank you.

Maria Stavrianos, 50th Birthday Party @ Hunters Hill Club, Hunters Hill

To the Sydney Jazz Collective, Thank you so much for performing at our wedding and for entertaining our guests all afternoon and night!

Thanks to your capable musicians… They made the night – the client is THRILLED.

Sense Events, Corporate Event @ Pier One, The Rocks

We had the best night. Everything was perfect and we were so happy with the Sydney Jazz Collective! I believe one of the biggest things to make a wedding awesome is food, alcohol and music and a good band really does put it at the top! I really appreciate all you guys did to ensure it was like that! You took requests from guests which I think is important and you did the best rendition of ‘Valerie’ so thank you so much.

Alex Treloar, Wedding @ Royal Sydney Golf Club, Rose Bay

The Sydney Jazz collective were the perfect band for our wedding, they played awesome jazz over dinner and then really kicked off the party after our first dance and got the DF pumping till late into the morning! They were friendly and fun and Tom on the Sax was playing in amongst the crowd and really getting involved!!! I would highly recommend them.

Australian Unity, Melbourne Cup Lunch @ Australian Unity Retirement Village, Northmead

Thank you so much for the performance last Friday! The Crew was very helpful.

E2 Media, Corporate Event @ Starship, Darling Harbour

I just wanted to write to you to say thank you for a wonderful performance by the band on Friday night. Please pass on our appreciation and thanks to all of the band members; I wasn’t able to stay the whole night but the feedback from the night has been wonderful, I was told some of our older more conservative patrons were up dancing! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves in the wonderful atmosphere the band create for us.

The Union, University & Schools Club of Sydney, Private Party @ The Union, University & Schools Club of Sydney, Sydney

The band was fantastic!! I really appreciate the effort they went to to get my son to sing. That really made my husband and my night. Neither of us had heard him sing before. It gave the night a very special moment. Please thank them all.

Great night – thanks for the music. Got us up dancing and reminiscing. Will definitely use you for future events.

Tessa Neilson, Wedding @ The Deckhouse, Woolwich

Claire Burke, Wedding @ Three Blue Ducks, Rosebery

The band was amazing, and we would love to book them again.

Alexandra Thomson, Networking Event @ Rolling Vineyard, Boomey

Words cannot express how wonderful you guys were on the night. You certainly exceeded our expectations (which were VERY high in the first place!), and we had countless mentions on the sheer skill and excellence you guys demonstrated on the night, and as I understand it quite a fair bit of people took your cards (and asked us for your contact!) You guys did an absolutely amazing rendition of Sailboats… Joyce and I were bawling our eyes out when you sang the bridge! All to say that you guys certainly completed our night and made it extremely special. Thank you once again. I hope to see you at our friend’s events in the future!

Caleb Tsai, Wedding 
@ Grounds of Alexandria

The Sydney Jazz collective were the perfect band for our wedding, they played awesome jazz over dinner and then really kicked off the party after our first dance and got the DF pumping till late into the morning!

Thank you for sending James and the rest of the band over to the wedding reception at Q Station last night. What a fabulous bunch of outstanding musicians! They read the mood of the night perfectly, playing softly while food was being served, then lifting the volume and the tempo up to have most of the guests up and dancing by the end of the evening. I was really impressed by the ease and skill of their playing. They sounded fantastic all night. Thank you to you and the band.

Stephen Andrew, Wedding @ Q Station, Manly

Francesca O’Connor, Wedding @ Balmain Town Hall, Balmain

Just wanted to get in touch to say how much we enjoyed the band at our wedding at Loxley last Saturday. You exceeded our expectations & we were blown away, as were our guests. I loved the way the music ‘built’ during the evening and the atmosphere in the room was fantastic. Can’t thank you enough for giving us your time.

Lesley Llewellyn, Wedding @ Loxley on Bellbird Hill, Kurrajong Hills

The band was fantastic – professional, friendly, and able to get everyone (even my 95-year-old grandmother) grooving on the dance floor throughout the night.

Harrison Jones, Wedding @ Sydney University

We loved the band. They made our wedding day that much more special. As big lovers of live music and dancing, we greatly appreciated the band playing superbly creating a classy atmosphere during canapés and dinner, and a fun and lively vibe later on that kept the dance floor packed. I would book them time and time again and would eagerly recommend to anyone. The booking system was also very straightforward unlike some other bands we were considering who kept chopping and changing prices and singer. Thank you again for your excellent work!

You were fantastic! All our wedding guests raved about how great you were. Thanks for making our night extra special.

Eimear and Jeroen, Wedding @ Park Hyatt, Sydney

Fantastic band with a fantastic selection of music. Everybody at our wedding loved their music and we could not be happier.

I will be recommending them to anybody looking to hire a band.

Shane Butler, Wedding @ Gerringong

Amazing work!

Manon Bot, Anniversary Party @ Glebe

Huge thanks to the band, exceeded our expectations, and really added to the whole day. You guys know your stuff – we’re glad we left the sets up to you, right pieces at the right time. There were quite a few sore feet the next day 😀 Thank you all so much.

Leanne Cowan, Wedding @ Mt Keira Scout Camp

Easy to deal with, delivered on every aspect including range of music on the night encompassing the 1920’s I’d requested! Faultless and really lovely guys to boot! Thank you guys for the fabulous night of entertainment on Saturday! The night was beyond my expectations… Perfect! Many thanks for coming all the way to Berry and for just being the perfect accompaniment to my Roaring 20’s evening!

Catherine Brennan, 50th Birthday Party @ Salmon & Co, Berry

We were very happy with the saxophone player and guitarist who played at my daughter’s wedding. It was lovely arriving and the ceremony and hearing the music playing as we came around the corner of the garden. It was also beautiful background dinner music. Thank you again.

Karyn Pagano, Wedding @ Oatlands House

The band played beautifully at our wedding reception, greatly appreciated by all.

Ash Fowler, Wedding @ Regatta Restaurant, Rose Bay

You guys were absolutely incredible… Looking back we wish we could have booked you guys longer! The sound, the performances, the song choices all A++++ it was one of the best decisions we made to have the Sydney Jazz Collective take care of the music on our night + the opening song of “Uptown Funk” getting everyone up and dancing is still the talk of the wedding. People hadn’t seen that done before and were blown away with it and it just created the most amazing vibe and energy from the first minute of the wedding!

Catherine Scro + Mathew Eggleston, Wedding @ Oatlands House, Oatlands

The band were exceptional. We had so many guests comment on how wonderful the music was. We were particularly grateful that they were able to accommodate so many of our requests. My Dad was thrilled when ‘Love Cats’ by the Cure came on and their version of ‘This Will Be’ for our first dance was even better than the original. Thank you for bringing so much to the night.

Rebecca Scott + Chris Turner, Wedding @ Watsons Bay Hotel, Watsons Bay

Thank you Sydney Jazz Collective, you managed to help create a wonderful atmosphere at the dinner despite us losing 3/4 of our attendees after dessert!!!

The guys were FANTASTIC. Excellent musicians and so involved with the crowd. I am so so happy I decided to get a live band and over the moon that I chose Sydney Jazz Collective. From the song to go with the big “surprise!” to the happy birthday tunes. They even let me brother in law sing and play guitar with them. Could not have been happier. Thank you so much.

Alexander Hartman & Domi Bernard, Wedding @ Mosman

We were absolutely delighted with the trio. They helped create exactly the atmosphere that we wanted for an outdoor garden party. I can tell you that many people at the party thought it was fantastic and very ‘classy’ to have a jazz band for a 21st so it works for both the young and us ‘oldies’ who loved their sound. They played requests which was great. Afterwards, we had lots of compliments from the neighbours who said they had a free ‘concert’ at our expense and really loved it. Annabel (the birthday girl) was over the moon. We have no complaints whatsoever. They were perfect. I will certainly recommend Jazz Collective to everyone. We love jazz and thought they were great musicians who produced a really lovely mellow sound. We will certainly use you again. I found Jazz Collective very professional, easy to deal with and courteous.

Maggie Game, 21st Birthday @ Wahroonga

The music was awesome, big thanks to the band. We had lots of great feedback and a wonderful night with the perfect atmosphere.

Shuan Shum, Wedding @ UTS Haberfield Club, Haberfield

I can not recommend Sydney Jazz Collective enough! They really know how to work an audience and create a fun environment. The 5 piece band were incredibly flexible, calm and professional. We had 2 major thunderstorms during our wedding reception which meant the band had to move their entire setup not once but twice. All done seamlessly!

Emily Thomas, Wedding @ Suzarosa Mountain Getaway, Berambing

The band was absolutely phenomenal. Not only did they have everyone dancing almost instantly, they also learnt a fairly niche song just for our first dance and did an incredible rendition of it. Wish we had a video! Thank you so much. You really made our wedding magical.

Eliza and Justin Smith, Wedding @ Circa 1876, Pokolbin

The band were fantastic! We had asked for a particular blues/jazz playlist, and the band did not let us down! The atmosphere was just as we had hoped and thanks to the band for letting my husband jump in with his harmonica to dedicate a song to me!

Dawn Dobbie, Wedding @ Banjo Patterson Restaurant, Gladesville

Matt and I had the best time and the band was amazing. Many of our guests were saying how great they were. They really made the night very special for us.

Tali and Mahmoud, Wedding @ Cafe Morso, Pyrmont

Sydney Jazz Collective provided music for our recent wedding – a trio of a vocalist, keyboard and guitar. The musicians were pitch perfect setting the tone during cocktails, understated and classy during the meal, and a lot of fun for the wrap up frivolity and dancing. Feedback from the wedding guests was universally positive across various age groups. The team were easy to deal with, extremely professional and flexible in dealing with various bespoke requests for our special day.

Jane Gordon, Wedding @ Jonah’s, Palm Beach

I wanted to send a personal note of thanks to your organisation, Jo and the guys were absolutely fantastic.

We were delighted with the entire night & a large part of the success was the band.

Bruce Haynes, Wedding @ Quay Restaurant, The Rocks

Just wanted to send through a huge thanks to the guys for the live music on Saturday. It was absolutely fantastic and our guests really enjoyed it.

Nhi Pham, Wedding @ Breakfast Point Country Club, Breakfast Point

These guys are the real deal! At first we were a little sceptical as we didn’t get a chance to hear them, but my gosh were they turnt up at the wedding. I loved the vibe and when they say “Dance Floor Packed guaranteed” they were not lying. Doltone House actually said that they have never seen such a great performance in their time! If you want a party, please book with Sydney Jazz Collective.

Roy Gamwalla, Wedding @ Doltone House, Hyde Park

The event went ahead seamlessly despite the torrential rain that decided to make its own appearance. The performance was executed perfectly. The artists definitely read their audience well and accommodated any requests. They also played to the acoustics of the space brilliantly. Charming individuals who were a pleasure to work with. Thank you for providing such great talent, it was also a pleasure to liaise with yourself. We will most definitely keep the Sydney Jazz Collective in mind for any future events.

Mary, Dinner Event @ Rowlee Wines, Nashdale

Our only regret was that we didn’t get them to play for longer! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sydney Jazz Collective, they are a very talented group of musicians.

Brianna Beuzen, Wedding @ Bathers Pavilion, Mosman

Just wanted to say thanks for an awesome night last Saturday – you guys were amazing!

I just wanted to thank you and the band for the incredible music at our wedding. We loved it, it brought so much joy and such a great atmosphere. The band truly are the best in the business. Thank you also to them for allowing me to play my song. I very much appreciate it. We, along with our guests thoroughly enjoyed the jazz and the dance floor hits.

Thank you so much to the wonderful trio who played at my husbands birthday lunch. It was a fantastic day – the sun was out and the music really set the vibe. They were a lovely group who were able to pick the crowd and play great choices. We really left it up to them.

We had a great time and were very happy with the band. The music was of a high quality and everyone was up on the dance floor by the end of the night which was perfect. We would definitely recommend Sydney Jazz Collective to anyone hosting a wedding or professional event expecially the quartet format. Thanks again for putting together such a good band for the night.

The Sydney Jazz Collective Trio (guitar, bass and sax) we used for our corporate evening were fantastic! They were very professional and easy to deal with, self sufficient and were able to adapt to the energy and noise levels within the room. When running a charity event there are lots of moving parts and Sydney Jazz collective made the entertainment a breeze.

Gabrielle and I arrived back in the UK yesterday after a memorable wedding trip! I just wanted to contact you and say thank you to you and the band for everything from the day we booked you, until the day of the wedding. We couldn’t have been happier with the band, we got so many compliments and feedback about the quality of the entertainment. We had an absolutely perfect day, and the band provided the exact atmosphere, and mood, and a touch of class to our evening that we had been imagining for the last 3 years.  I wanted to extend my personal gratitude to you for all your help, and making our planning process that much easier!

I wanted to reach out to say thank you so much to you and the band for helping out on our wedding day. The band were amazing, they really read the vibe that we (and our guests) were after and we received so many comments on how good they were. I’d book them again in a heartbeat!

We were very happy with the Sydney Jazz Collective. They were very easy to communicate with in the lead up to the event, and very prompt on giving responses. They were flexible and able to account for our special requests on the day. The team were very professional and the music on the night was amazing. They really got people up and dancing, and made for a very fun night. Highly recommend!

Dom and Michael, Wedding @ Ormeggio, Mosman

Thank you so much to you and the Sydney Jazz Collective for absolutely elevating our wedding reception – everyone had such a great time and so many people told us that the music was a clear highlight of the evening for them (as it was for us). Just wanted to pass on our gratitude and let you know that the music made the evening so much more enjoyable for us.

Tim and Heather, Wedding @ The Eveleigh, Eveleigh

Thank you for the most amazing band! They were absolutely fantastic. All of our guests have commented on how magnificent they were and how great the music was. They were so wonderful and professional and played the most amazing background jazz after the ceremony; the guests were captivated by the magnificent instrumental jazz. The music they played for the specific songs we chose for our special moments was perfect; it made the cake-cutting and the first dance so special! All the other music was just so much fun and they were absolutely on-task with reading the room. I couldn’t stop dancing and singing along. Literally, all of the guests loved it and the band made everything incredible. It just made the night so much more polished and special. Many, many thanks to the band – they were absolutely amazing.
