Ken’s quartet played a perfect mix of jazz standards during our wedding’s cocktail hour, and provided an unbeatable atmosphere for us and our guests. Would absolutely recommend for any occasion!

About Ken Weiner | Jazz 🎷
My group will play straight-ahead jazz standards by artists like Miles Davis, Dexter Gordon, Duke Ellington, and Thelonius Monk. I love playing jazz music and hearing from my customers that they greatly enjoyed the music. I can work with you to customize the band for your event. Instruments include saxophone, trumpet, piano (or keyboard), guitar, acoustic bass, drums, and vocals. Note: if you are looking for smooth jazz (Kenny G), pure blues music (BB King) or pop music (Stevie Wonder), we are not going to be a good fit for you. Also, we require 2 musicians minimum.
Reviews
I hired Ken and his band for my wedding - they were amazing! I checked out other jazz bands that played in the Bluewhale, a famous jazz club in LA. But Ken was my choice. They were professional and respectful; super nice guys and high quality musicians.
OMG!!! Ken and his band made my event so elegant! If you need a top notch jazz band to add flavor and class to your event, you should reach out to Ken. Several of my family members and friends raved about the jazz music during the cocktail hour of my graduation party. I would highly recommend Ken and his band and I whole heartedly rate them 5 stars- Hands down!
I threw my sister a surprise birthday party. I had a strict vision and it being a surprise and jazz theme. Ken & Rick showed up and SHOWED OUT. Ken was super professional, easy, & fast to respond on booking the event. Ken & Rick showed up set up quickly and played perfectly when my sister came in. The music they played was so beautiful everyone enjoyed it to the fullest. I will be recommending Them to ANYONE & EVERYONE. Thank you again Ken & Rick for executing everything. It was amazing. 🙌🏻✨🙌🏻
Ken and his band were simply AMAZING! They played at my wedding and were a huge hit. He was very professional, had great communication, and, most importantly, sounded fantastic. Can't thank you guys enough for making our night extra special!
If you are looking for a jazz combo and have found this review, look no further! I hired Ken and his group to play for an intimate dinner party - my mom’s 80th- and it couldn’t have been more perfect!! Ken was easy to work with; and very professional. His group was punctual, professional, and friendly. And then there was the music! The perfect soundtrack of jazz standards, a little bossa nova- just perfect for the occasion! Do yourself a favor and work with Ken and his band!
Everything was amazing! They played all the music I requested, they were prompt and professional! Totally the best bang for your buck!
Ken and his Band which included Tom on Drums and Eric on Bass was a pleasure to work with. The band arrived on time and played amazing jazz that was the highlight of the event. Not only did they take requests from the guests but they paid close attention to the pacing of tempo of the evening, knowing when to modulate sound, kick off a song or stop all together such as when a toast was being made at the dinner table. I would highly recommend Ken and suggest you give him a try. I know i will be rehiring them.
We had the perfect 21st birthday party for my son thanks to Ken's Trio. Ken played an excellent selection of jazz favorites and even encouraged my son, who plays some trumpet, to sit in and play on a few numbers. I can't say enough about how wonderful this trio was, if you want great entertainment at your party, hire Ken and his Trio.
I hired Ken last minute for cocktail hour for my wedding. So many people commented on how much they enjoyed the band. Ken responded quickly and was so easy to work with. The band set up with ample time and reset everything up with plenty of time when it began to rain outside. Ken made everything as easy as possible which is so refreshing when planning an event. I would recommend Ken to anyone looking for a jazz band and if I were to redo my wedding I would hire him again in a heartbeat. I am so glad I decided to hire a jazz band last minute and relieved I found someone as great as Ken.
