Description

Orlando recording artist Eddie Hammond Jones has drawn rave reviews from critics for his musical Midas touch. Jones' style has been compared to Jimmy Smith, Jimmy McGiff. But ask this humble jazz and blues artist and he'll tell you "I'm flattered, but I like to think I put my own signature on everything I play."

Jones has played with music's royalty and backed renowned superstars such as Aretha Fanklin, The O Jays, The Bill Doggett Combo and the legendary Fats Domino. He has received accolades in numerous publications for his performances. He is considered a rare talent able to offer his listening audience a variety of entertainment ranging from Jazz to R&B, Country to Gospel, 50's to 90's and more.

Feedback

  • Eddie and his band were absoulutely wonderful to work with. They were very independent with no need from us in setting up, questions, etc. Eddie and Bonnie were great to work with when scheduling. The audiance loved them! -- Sharon E, Orlando, FL, 10/15/2011
  • Eddie Hammond Jones a professional New Orleans Jazz musician and Bonnie were as sweet as sweet can be, and their band was great! If your thinking of getting a D.J. over a band, don't! A band's ambience far out weigh's a D.J.'s. fun. I loved them everything was great except they need to up grade their sound system. There was a little feed back on the amp and mic system. Otherwise thanks a million! and thanks for the sweet gift. Ya'll went above and beyond to please us. And everyone loved the band! Thank you so much! We have a lot of great photo's we'll send you in an email attachment. Love, Christopher and Shay Moore -- Shay G, Tampa, FL, 1/22/2011
