Description

Elegant, stylish and engaging.... Amy and the Yazz Men have been performing like wildfire throughout the Midwest from bistros and wine bars to corporate events and weddings. For weddings, they can play music for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, due to their huge repertoire of many different styles. Amy Yassinger, a vocalist, is the band leader and can sing Jazz and Pop classics all the way to Classical favorites as well. If you hire Amy and the Yazz Men for your event, you will not be disappointed! She and her band work with all budgets and whether you want something small (duo) to large (small 12-piece big band), they will make it happen. She is very easy to work with and honors ALL requests. Referrals are available upon request as well as a brochure. If interested, you may also purchase her new Jazz/Pop CD, "Sometimes I'm Happy", consisting of an all-star lineup.
