Wedding Reception
in Portland, OR
on 09/18/2010
"The Uptown Lowdown Jazz Band was an amazing addition to our wedding day. Everyone raved, everyone danced, we just had a blast! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an incredible, soulful band to play New Orleans influenced jazz at a wedding, party or function of any type. It's the perfect choice - not so loud that you can't sit and have a conversation if you'd like to - but good luck sitting still in your seat when they start!"

"Uptown Lowdown Jazz was FABULOUS! They were very professional and the music was awesome. We had guests ages 5 to 92, and absolutely everyone had a blast listening and dancing to the music. Thank you for providing us a lovely evening. People are still telling us how much they enjoyed your entertainment!!!"

"Uptown lowdown jazz band quartet was just perfect for our summer wedding. The setting was a beautiful lavender farm on Vashon. This band set the tone perfectly for the wedding. They are AMAZING! We requested numerous songs, all of which they played perfectly and at just the right time. They are highly professional and incredibly sweet. I would love to have them play an event or party again one day. LOVE THEM!!!"

Wedding Reception
in Tacoma, WA

"I'm so happy we were able to book ULJB for our wedding. They were the second vendor we booked after our location and we couldn't be more pleased with the decision. The band was wonderful, and even worked with my Husband to surprise me with a special song (Bare Necessities, from The Jungle Book) for our first dance - I had no idea that this was going on and was tickled pink when I heard the first few bars. :) I had multiple guests asking where and how we found ULJB because they were just perfect. (Even our wedding photographer loved them!) I can't imagine our wedding without them. I'm only sad we don't have the money to book them for every little party we throw! ;D"

"My only regret is that we only hired them to play for one hour. We should have at least doubled that. This is a great band with a great sound. As a person who wouldn't normally listen to this type of music, I am sold now! Great job guys!"

"Uptown Lowdown is absolutely fantastic! They are very talented and really helped to set a wonderful mood and vibe at my wedding. I cannot say enough good things about them. They are consummate professionals and overall nice people. I would absolutely hire them again for future events and would refer them to anyone who is looking for flawless jazz and swing music."

Birthday Party (Adults)
in Gig Harbor, WA
on 04/07/2007
"Everyone from the 10 year old grandson to the 86 year old guest was out on the dance floor during my Dad's 75th birthday party celebration. The music was easy and fun to dance to, and yet it was easy to carry on conversations at our tables. The group is very pleasant and easy to work with and they definitely made the party more festive. I would hire them again. "

"To Whom it May Concern:
Mr. Barr and the Band were wonderful. When I had talked to Mr. Barr about what I was trying to do, (Celebrate Black History)by sharing the history of the music and the hardships of the time for Black Artist. Mr. Barr shared history, insight of the music, and gave an excellent show and overall, I believe that people gained a new respect for the music and were impressed by the band. At the end of the show the Band answered questions and demonstrated some of the answers as well. I feel very fortunate to have had an opportunity to meet and work with the Uptown Lowdown Band. Thank you very much. :)"

Wedding Reception
in Bellingham, WA
on 09/23/2012
"The ULJB was one of the highlights of our wedding. They agreed to come up to Bellingham from Seattle without any additional fees and were set up and playing when we arrived at the reception from the ceremony. The ULJB was accommodating of our requests (changing from a 4 to a 5 piece band with only two weeks notice) and played for >3 hours promised. We were a bit disorganized and they brought harmony (literally) to our event. Only criticism would be that the "first dance" song that was played was different than the one we requested, but I'm a bad enough dancer that it didn't make any difference and our guests never knew. Everyone loved ULJB. Recommend highly!"
- Mike H.
Uptown Lowdown Jazz’s Response:
"I'm not really sure why Michael said we changed his first dance. He requested L-O-V-E and we played it. We spent time adding it to our book along with lyrics. He danced to it. I have nothing more to say. Bert"

"We booked the group for our annual client event at a local golf and country club. We has over 450 attending in two sessions. The age group of most attendees was in the 50s, 60s and 70s. The band played a great variety of very appropriate songs. Very personable and talented. I would definitely recommend them!"

"We were very impressed with the uptown lowdown jazz band. They were professional, extremely talented, and had a style that was enjoyable for our guests of all ages and backgrounds. Booking through gigmasters was easy and Bert (the bandleader) was great for sending us sample CD's and helping us pick out our "special songs". Thank you all for helping to make our wedding unforgetable! "
