Feedback
- Jazz is in the air was fantastic! Not only performing so well on our wedding day, but helping me plan out the music, the ceremony and the timing of it all. Bob was so responsive, professional and accommodating. I HIGHLY recommend 'Jazz is in the Air'. Our venue required 'acoustical' music during the reception. The band played exactly what we had asked, and at the exact sound level that was appropriate for the room/venue. We also had a acoustical guitar and flute during the ceremony and they played such a lovely version of 'somewhere over the rainbow' - guests are still talking about it weeks later! Thank you, Bob and your band!! -- Kristin S, Newport, RI, 5/21/2011
- We hired Jazz in the Air Trio for our corporate grand opening. The trio added so much to the event and we received several compliments from our guests regarding their performance. The music was flawless and working with the band beforehand was effortless. We were in need of audio equipment and set up to accommodate our guest speakers, which the band handled for us at a minimal extra charge. I highly recommend Jazz in the Air Trio to anyone who is looking for an affordable, professional, great sounding band who is easy to work with - you won't be disappointed! -- Christina M, Providence, RI, 9/14/2011
- Bob and his trio were soooo professional, AND talented and sensitive performers. We had an engagement brunch. They played music for our eating time, and we danced to the more inovative pieces. It was horrendous weather, but there they were--beating the snowstorm and staying until the end. What troupers and VERY talented musicians. I will hire them again in a heartbeat. Please use my words to promote these muscians. Thank you again, Bob!!! Diane Merrill, Pine Hills, Plymouth, MA -- Diane M, Plymouth, MA, 12/26/2010
- This past weekend we hired Jazz in the Air for our annual holiday party at home. Bob Sabourin, the band leader, responded immediately to our request for a jazz trio and recommended a great mix of light jazz and holiday music. They gauged the volume and music to match the evening and our baby grand piano never sounded so good! We had to ask them to extend their 5 hour gig to 7 hours to accommodate our guests.
Thank you, Jazz in the Air, for making our annual holiday party the best one ever. We look forward to hiring your talented band in the future for another great party and will gladly recommend you to others who wish to throw a smashing event!

- Jazz in the Air performed for our cocktail hour. We asked them to play light, classic jazz that people could dance to yet have a conversation over. They performed beautifully. I had numerous guests approach me to tell me how great of a job they did. They had some constraints to deal with (they were placed on a balcony, away from guests, and had to depart during the reception to make way for a DJ) and handled them all great!
Bob was a professional throughout the process and worked with my wife and myself to make it a great event.
Thanks to Bob and the band, we had a great wedding and some great memories.

- Perfection! This band played at my wedding on May 1, 2010 and they were fantastic in every way. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a jazz ensemble of any size...
They will work to acommodate you! A+

- The music was wonderful. A beautiful addition to our party. It made the whole event that much more festive. Great talent! I would absolutely use Jazz in the Air again and highly recommend them to my family and friends. -- Nancy L, Weston, MA, 11/6/2011
- We hired Jazz in the Air to be the performers for our Christmas Show. We are a Catholic School (prek through sixth) and wanted the group to play songs the children could sing along to. They were fabulous! The kids loved the music and singing along. Bob was so accommodating and professional. It was a pleasure dealing with him. I would definitely recommend them for any school performance! -- Daphne G, Wellesley, MA, 12/17/2010
