Description
NEW FOR 2009: SPECIAL CONSIDERATION IN PRICING. Because of the economic times we want to offer our best pricing. We will bid on your event with this in mind. Please feel free to talk with us about your budget….nothing is fixed in stone and we can negotiate.
Nothing can replace the excitement and audience enjoyment of live music performed by musicians who truly enjoy what they are doing. We perform a wide variety of music including swing, standards, jazz, blues and some classic rock. We are a quintet consisting of Sax, Keyboard, Guitar, Bass and Drums. Our vocal and instrumental arrangements are unique and enjoyed by all age groups. If you have had it with country, and hard rock is not your style, A Kool Nights Band is the one for you. In addition to dances and club gigs, we also have great sets that are perfect for background music at social events and dinners. If you want a wedding reception with sophistication give us a call. Listen to our sample audio clips or ask for our demo tape/CD. We also can book out as an instrumental quartet or trio. Currently booking for 2009 into 2010.

Feedback
- A Kool Nights Band was the perfect match for our event. They performed professionally and tailored the evenings selections to match the audience's tastes perfectly. They were never too loud, chatty or inappropriate. I give them my highest recommendation. Many people asked for the bands information as they wanted to hire them for their next event.
A personal "Thank You!" to A Kool Nights Band for making our special event even more special.
Cheers and Peace to All, Jackie Stanley -- Jackie F, Mentor On The Lake, OH, 7/18/2009

- We made several special requests and juggled around the first dance song for a while. Kool Nights Band was more than accomodating with all our requests. We had more praises from guests of how well the band was playing and how good they sounded. The playlist and vibe was perfect for our venue. I would highly recommend this band to whomever is looking for a great band. Thanks! -- Brendan G, Cleveland, OH, 9/27/2008
- Our deck party was a rousing success, and the band was a key reason. They play a great song list, and really put on a perfect performance for our needs. I would definitely use them again, and highly recommend anyone to use them for their wedding reception, party, or event. -- Jeff W, North Canton, OH, 8/31/2008
- A Kool Nights Band was very helpful through the planning of my event. It was my first experience with such an event, and they were absolutely willing to work with me and my requests. The audience loved their set lists, and they thoroughly enjoyed their performance.
I would, without a doubt, recommend A Kool Nights Band to any other event planners. They will work with you to make sure that their performance is adequate, arrive with all equipment and set up in a timely fashion, and they will give a wonderful performance. They were completely above and beyond what I could have asked or expected. -- Katie M, Grove City, PA, 4/19/2008

- The Kool Nights Band performed at the Cleveland Institute of Music's 2007 Spring Fling. Students and faculty all had a great time dancing and listening, and quite a few of us sat in with the band on some numbers. This was a pleasant opportunity to enjoy and play music that is a bit different from that which we study and perform daily.
The band was friendly and engaging and its attitude was professional and accomodating. Highly recommended.

- We all want to let you know that the band was really fantastic at the wedding reception. We and our guests really enjoyed their performance! We even had area "neighbors" telling us how much they enjoyed the music that night (outdoor event and they were listening to it from over a field away...hahaha).
"A Kool Nights Band" helped make this reception PERFECT.
Best Regards, Dave Snyder
