Our style is a fusion mix of jazz, where traditional meets contemporary... and blues, pop and jazz are intertwined to delight your senses with a rainbow of sound.
Specializing in a fusion of blues, light pop and jazz, BREEZIN' performs your favorite retro tunes of yester-year to todays hottest jazz.

With a balanced mix of experienced musicians, BREEZIN' plays Contemporary, Smooth, and Fusion Style Jazz to give your event an added touch of class.
BREEZIN believes that you can't be a first rate band without a first rate production. With a state of the art Bose LT1 sound system and lighting, BREEZIN can handle anything from a private party to a large outdoor festival or corporate event.
BREEZIN goes far beyond being just "the band". In addition to some great live music other services that can be provided include:
- All needed sound and lighting
- Master of Ceremonies services
- Sound reinforcement for ceremonies, presentations, etc at location other than where the band will play (can provide multiple sound systems)
- For weddings - pre-recorded music of your choice during cocktail hour, dinner, introductions, special dances
- "DJ'd" break music that keeps the party going
- Use of the sound system and wireless microphone for toasts, speeches, etc.
- Access to our large catalog of pre-recorded music for all your special dances and events during the reception. It's likely we have it which means you won't need to track it down.
- For weddings - A comprehensive guide to walk you through all aspects of the reception. This makes sure we exceed your expectations.
WE HAVE A TON OF POSITIVE COMMENTS EMAILED TO US FROM PAST CLIENTS. BELOW ARE A FEW FROM THIS YEAR
We had a great time. The band arrived 2 hours early and was set up, sound checked, and performing shortly before scheduled. They had a nice array of music with mellow jazz, songs with a punch, and some really groovin blues. They played some latin feel music and pop standards with a jazz fusion twist. We were very pleased and plan to book them for this event next year as well. they had professional equipment, their own sound equipment, and a very professional attitude. We were very pleased that they even interacted with the kids giving them things to play. At the end of their first set one of our neighbor kids wanted to play a piano solo and the band played with her!!

Very Professional. They started right on time and stayed late. You can see that they really love what they do! With their variety of Jazz and Blues, Breezin kept our guests entertained all night. We still have members ask when we are having Breezin back for another show.

We saw you guys at the Westerville Music and Arts Festival. We were at another stage listening to a band, but when we heard your first song, my wife and I packed up and made our way over to your stage. Great show guys!

"This was a great band that fit in well with the theme and professionalism of our event. The only complaint we received was that the band was a little loud during the dinner hour (1st hour of the show), but that was as much our sound guys as the band, and we can learn from that for next year if we go this way again.
Musically and professionally, I couldn't have asked for anything better. We contacted them late, but they were exactly what the event needed. Without question, these guys helped to make the evening a wonderful success! Thanks!

"Breezin Smooth Jazz did an excellent job at our company holiday party. Beforehand, the band called to discuss our expectations, and were very detailed. They arrived on time and were very easy to work with. The music they played was excellent, and we had many compliments on their performance! "
