Review by Anne L.

CelebrationReviewed on June 14, 2023From Camarillo, CA

The Secret Jazz Band are the best!!! Super kind, very professional, great communicators, flexible, personable, and extremely talented!!! We were so impressed by them. They added so much ambience to our celebration and read the crowd perfectly. It was a pleasure to work with them.

The Secret Jazz Band:

Thank you Anne, for this amazing review! We had a wonderful time with you all and have nothing but happy memories performing your fantastic 1920s party! You went above and beyond with the decor, details, and delicious bites. Your backyard was perfectly transformed into a glamorous Gatsby-style evening - and we fit right in! Thank you again for welcoming us into your home and making us a part of the celebration! Kind wishes, Katie & The Band

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on October 22, 2023From Carlsbad, CA

Katie, her husband, and the rest of the band were fantastic! My guests loved the variety of music they provided from Bossa nova, to contemporary, to modern jazz, they were all blown away. Not only that but they were so accommodating in helping to host some of the portions of our reception including introductions, toasts, and our shoe game on top of their music duties. Katie was also so sweet and communicative during the planning process. They also gave us the ability to pick songs and were very organized. Overall, my husband and I were so happy with their performance and would definitely book them again!

The Secret Jazz Band:

Wow, Denice! This is such a wonderful review! You and your husband were truly a pleasure to work with. What a spectacular wedding day! We are grateful to have been a part of it. Thank you so much for the kind words -- and for supporting live music! I'm so happy we were able to contribute to making your day a special one. Wishing you both all the very best! -Katie & The Band

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on August 22, 2022From Newhall, CA

The Secret Jazz Band performed for my husbands 60 th Birthday party and they were amazing! They were prompt, professional, and they played all our favorites from our playlist. Our guests were very impressed with the lead singer Katie as well as the 4 musicians in band. They also brought lighting which also enhanced the vibe and mood of our party. They are a class act for sure!We will surely hire them again in the future.
