"We had a great time, in a great part due to your band. We've had several comments about how the band was excellent and really added to the atmosphere. In fact, we were saying the next day that at some point in the future we should consider a private party with a live jazz band (you'll be the top choice)" Robert Babbish,

CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Barry's combo could not have been better! They showed up promptly, on time, professionally dressed, and their music was absolutely perfect for our event. I will definitely book them again!

Barry Sames Jazz Combos were an absolute delight at my wedding. We wanted a Jazz band that could play a wide array of contemporary, soulful, and gospel music. They were very professional through the whole process of planning the music play list and they even learned a few songs that were not on their play list. This was a very reassuring process for a bride that strives for perfection. I received a lot of compliments from my guests that are used to attending Academy of the Arts performances. VERY IMPRESSIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks again,
Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Roberts, Esquire
