 The Latest CD from the Jazz Band, Acoustic Jass
Their latest CD was made at various locations in the Summer of 2017, one hundred years after the first jazz record was put on sale (Acoustic Jass wasn't around then!)

The musical instruments, Trumpet, Clarinet, Banjo and Sousaphone(Tuba or Brass Bass) are acoustic and not dependent on electricity which makes this jazz quartet versatile, the band can easily move from one place to another, however, unless it is a procession, they don't walk and play at the same time.

This party jazz band appeared at a garden party in series 8 Episode 3 of Made in Chelsea, and they led the cortege at Steve Strange's Funeral on 12 March 2015, Daily Mail Report and ITV Report

Hire a jazz band as the professional musicians need very little space and the music can be as quiet or loud as the event needs, whether it is at a formal dinner party or an agricultural show.

In addition to their nineteen twenties style striped blazers Acoustic Jass have various other uniforms depending on the event.

These jazz musicians are equally at home providing the music at a dinner dance, playing in the background at a reception or party and, they have presented a music lesson at a school where the theme was traditional jazz - the music and the instruments.
