The Ted Hefko Trio

(follow the link at the bottom of my page to Ted Hefko's New Orleans Band profile to see all of our great reviews and proven track record with Gigmasters) Why not hire a genuine jazz band featuring active members of the New York music scene instead of the standard "wedding band?" We offer great jazz for your cocktail hour and swinging sets of Jazz, Blues, Dixieland, and New Orleans funk for your reception. In addition to our regular repertoire, we've happily honored requests for everything from Frank Sinatra to Van Morrison. Treat your guests and yourselves to entertainment that is unique, memorable and above all fun.

The Ted Hefko Band consists of myself on saxophone, Vocals, and Clarinet, Flute and sometimes Acoustic Guitar, accompanied by Guitar/Banjo, Upright Bass, and, when appropriate, Drums and/or a second horn such as Trombone. We perform a wide variety of vocal and intrumental jazz, with an emphasis on New Orleans music, Traditional Jazz, Swing, and Roots music.

The Ted Hefko Trio performs regularly at The Antique Garage and at Jules Bistro in the East Village and my Funkier formation, "Ted Hefko and The Thousandaires," perform at a variety of clubs around town. Please let me know if you'd like to come see the band live or stop by our Brooklyn Studio for a private showcase.

We also offer classical flute and guitar duets for ceremonies, as well as ethnic wedding dances such as the Hora, on clarinet.

The Ted Hefko Jazz Band is happy to provide proof of insurance to meet your venue's requirements.
