About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Lou Walinsky's jazz band plays a lively mix of jazz, swing, and Latin tunes. It's just what you want to hear when you're having a cocktail party or a corporate event or when you're celebrating a wedding, an anniversary, or a special birthday. The 4 Top Reasons to Hire the Lou Walinsky Jazz Band: 1. The group features some of the region's best jazz artists on vocals, sax, keyboard, bass, and drums, playing a great repertoire of tunes. 2. The ensemble is flexible. You can book it as a duo, trio, quartet, or as the full quintet, depending on your budget and your taste. 3. The band will be responsive to your needs, be it for a low volume during a cocktail hour or for specific song requests. 4. The goal of all the musicians is to help create an exciting and wonderful atmosphere for your event. The group draws its repertoire from the Great American Song Book - with songs by George Gershwin, Cole Porter, Richard Rodgers, Harald Arlen, Jule Styne, Hoagy Carmichael, and many more, as well as from the Great Jazz Tunebook - with tunes by composers such as Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Duke Ellington, Chick Corea, Horace Silver, Sunny Rollins, and John Coltrane. Songs by Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, and Antonio Carlos Jobim also figure prominently in the group's play list. The ensemble will provide you with sophisticated, swingin', and soulful music - just the right touch for your next event. Don't hesitate to request a free quote for your event. And, as an added feature, we will pay the entire booking fee if you decide to hire us.

Review by Hsin H.

Engagement PartyReviewed on October 23, 2013From New York City, NY

Lou's band was the key to our engagement party! The guests loved the music so very much! From booking to finish, Lou was extremely accommodating and very detail-oriented. He led me thru all the intricacies of hosting with a live 5 piece ensemble, and it turned out perfect; everybody had a blast, and it wouldn't have happened without Lou's Band. Thanks Lou, if I don't host any more parties in the near future, I will definitely travel to Philly to hear you guys again!

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on August 24, 2013From Philadelphia, PA

Lou and his band were the perfect band for our wedding. Everyone of our guests commented on how elegant, professional, and enjoyable the band was at our event. It was truly the best choice that we could have made. From our first interaction with Lou until the wedding night was finished, everything ran smoothly and Lou was always helpful and accommodating. We would absolutely recommend hiring Lou and his band for any event that you may be planning. Their music and professionalism will be enjoyed by all of your guests and will help to create a timeless event. Thank Lou, for all your hard work!
