Description
Our basic style is 'smooth jazz' which incorporates a romantic touch into standard and new songs, but we also play traditional jazz and are well known in New Orleans for our original style. We have played in jazz festivals all over the world and were recently featured in a Sesame Street production. We have never counted the total number of songs that we play, but the partial list we send out contains over 1,400 numbers.
We play 80-100 weddings a year as, to the best of our knowledge, we are the only band in New Orleans that can provide music for all aspects of weddings: ceremonies (including church organ with brass), receptions, rehearsal parties, second lines, streetcar rides, Jewish weddings, Italian etc. We were named best wedding band by New Orleans Magazine.

Feedback
- The 4-piece band that we used arrived on time and were a very nice addition to our cocktail hour and dinner. They were accomodating and moved from the 2nd floor after cocktails up to the 8th floor for dinner. We were very satisfied and would use them again. -- Sandy S, New Orleans, LA, 5/9/2007
- The band was wonderful and really made our party come to life! -- Geri A, New Orleans, LA, 4/17/2008
- Dr. Jazz was amazing. They have a great New Orleans sound complete with or without vocals. They were very willing to accommodate my needs as host and even played a little longer than requested. Definately reserve them for your next event! -- Adam K, New Orleans, LA, 8/5/2010
- Dr.Jazz & The New Orleans sounds exceeded my expectations!
Excellent multi-talented musicians!!! Excellent communication. On time arrival at venue. Non-stop music except for two short breaks. Happy to take requests. Polite. Professional. Everything you could ask for in a band and more.
I highly recommend this group for your event. -- Bonnie G, Slidell, LA, 10/30/2011
