Description
The BMR4 is an accomplished Chicago jazz quartet that features some of the best players in the city including members of the Buddy Guy, Lonnie Brooks, and Patricia Barber bands. Current venues that the group are playing include Andy's Jazz Club, Shaw's Crabhouse, Pops For Champagne, Pete Millers (all locations), Navy Pier, United Center (Chicago Bulls), and official City of Chicago events/functions for Mayor Daley. Our latest CD, 'Turning Point', was released on the Hallway Records label (Chicago) in 2007.
The BMR4 is a highly versatile group, and we have had much success with our Gigmaster clients.. We will tailor our musical selections to fit the event we are playing. Besides straight ahead jazz, BMR4 is exceptional at incorporating blues, funk, cajun, latin, soul-jazz, and R&B into the show. The BMR4 knows how to play upbeat music that will engage your audience, even if you're simply looking for background music for your event. No matter what your needs are, you can be assured that the group will perform a set worthy to the tastes of your clientele.
We have had much success with Gigmaster clients, and we encourage you to use BMR4 for your event.
Audio and video samples are available on our website.

Feedback
- Chris and his band were awesome. They were prompt and extremely professional. I will definitely look to them for my future events! -- Julius R, Des Plaines, IL, 8/19/2006
- Bmr4's performance at our event at the Hyatt @ McCormick Place was nothing more than fantastic. They had our guests on their feet dancing. There is a lot to be said about being up on your feet dancing after standing on them all day in the Convention Center for a major tradeshow.
Our company would not hesitate to hire Bmr4 again in the future while visiting Chicago.
