Feedback

  • We booked Jack, his pianist and bassist for our indoor cocktail party of 40 people. They were amazing musicians and created the perfect ambiance for a swank event. The feedback from our guests was excellent with respect to the choice of music and overall vibe. The guys were personable and professional. I highly recommend them and can’t wait to book them for another event. -- Jason L, Suffield, CT, 10/1/2011
  • Absolutely fantastic! Professional, friendly, and extremely talented. Jack's duo really made the party. I would use them again and would highly recommend them to anybody! -- Steve U, New Ipswich, NH, 9/6/2008
  • If you want the very best in a jazz combo for your event, hire Jack Pezanelli and his group. From the very first e mail exchange to the last notes played at our event last Friday night (June 8th), Jack was absolutely wonderful to work with. He was immediately responsive to all of my pre-event questions, highly professional in his handling of the business matters of the arrangement, prompt in his schedule, and neat and fashionable in appearance. Most importantly, his music is top notch. The group for our event was a quartet (guitar, bass, keyuboard and drums). Each member of the group was excellent and the ensemble was terrific. I spoke with Jack only a bit about the choice of music, but he seemed to know exactly what I wanted. My guests were very complimentary. If you like jazz guitar, you will love Jack and his group. Finally, I think he may be the best musically bargain around. Jack, if you read this, you really should raise your appearance fee. LR, New York, New York -- Louis R, Mystic, CT, 6/8/2007
  • We were thrilled with Jack and his musicians! Not only were they extremly professional to work with, but they played the perfect music for our wedding party. Jack was a pleasure to work with -- from beginning to end. His music got rave reviews from our guests and it was the perfect sound for the setting. We would certainly use him again and recommend him highly to anyone looking for an excellent musician! -- Gabrielle R, Marblehead, MA, 11/25/2006
