Lady Jazz is a jazz band for hire in Brisbane, QLD.
Lady Jazz play the classic end of the repertoire, and they play it for rooms where the music is meant to sit under the conversation rather than take it over. Singer Sarah holds a Masters degree in jazz voice and has more than 17 years of performance behind her, with credits around Australia and a 2009 release called This Way that still gets radio and cafe play. She is a careful reader of a lyric, which is the thing that separates a good jazz vocalist from a competent one. Book it as a duo with piano and voice, a trio with double bass, or a quartet with drums. They are happy to talk through song choices and take requests beforehand.

Lady Jazz were fabulous. Their songs and sound were lovely and fitted in with our event perfectly. Thanks so much.

Lady Jazz was brilliant, we had to move them out of the room (due to size of room vs noise) so they did the guest arrivals and departures in the foyer – not quite as exciting but great none the less. Would definitely use them again!

They were great thank you. The only trouble was with the weather I was cautious not to put them where I had hoped to in case they got wet or muddy so they were a little secluded from the party which was our fault and Mother Nature not theirs.
Thanks for your help!!

We absolutely loved Lady Jazz! They were flexible when it came to set times, which was great, and also still able to assist when we were running a bit late.
They had a great set list and we got a lot of positive feedback from our delegates.
Kind Regards,
Rachel

Can you also pass on that I have received wonderful feedback on their performance last night they were fantastic. I am just sorry that they had such difficulties entering and exiting this building. This is something we will have to consider for future events.
Kind regards

Lady Jazz did a great job. Unfortunately I missed the dinner last year, so this is the first time I had heard them for myself.
I believe the entertainment was well received, and fit for the evening.
Thanks again.
