Description

Pentimento Jazz is primarily a piano, bass and drum trio with vocals. We are happy to add horns when the job calls for it. We are a collective which includes many of the SF Bay Area's best and most experienced musicians--which means we can book more than one event on a day/evening. Our music ranges from Ellington to Bill Evans/Miles Davis. Pentimento musicians have played with Nancy
Wilson, Mel Torme, Diana Ross, Claudia Valella and many others. We've had long standing engagements with some of the Bay Area's best restaurants, wineries, including the Mountain Winery. We are also in demand for weddings and corporate events.

Available For:

Anniversaries, Awards Nights, Banquets, Bar Mitzvahs, Birthday Parties, Celebrations, Christmas Parties, Clubs, Cocktail Parties, Community Events, Conventions, Corporate Functions, Country Clubs, Dinner Dances, Festivals, Fund Raisers, Graduation Parties, Grand Openings, Halloween Parties, Luau Parties, New Year's Eve Parties, Picnic, Private Parties, Proms, Restaurants, Reunions, Weddings, Wedding Ceremonies, Wedding Cocktail Hours, Wedding Receptions...and more.

Feedback

  • Mike Bastian's Pentimento Jazz played at our wedding mid October and my wife and I were both completely amazed by their performance. Their choice of music during our reception was perfect. Our Guests loved the music and we received so many compliments about the band. In addition, Mike was very professional and easy to work with.He quickly responded to any concerns or requests we had. He was also able to accommodate our ceremony, which was outdoors,then move indoors for our reception with almost no interruption. Mike Bastian's Penitmento Jazz really did add a special, memorable touch to our evening and we would not hesitate recommending them to anyone. -- Alistair M, San Francisco, CA, 10/15/2011
