Weddings, Private & Corporate gigs
We started gigging in venues and built up to weddings, private & corporate events and venues specialising in jazz.
Antonio Carlos Jobim and his song Wave.
We are also influenced by Joe Pass, John Coltrane, Steely Dan, Red Garland, McCoy Tyner, John Pizzareli, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, George Benson, Chic Corea, Stan Getz, Pat Metheny, Eric Clapton and Stevie Wonder. We incorporate songs into our sets from these artists.
We normally arrive 1 hour before to set up and perform 2 or 3 x 45 minute sets. We can also work with a runsheet.
Yes, a flat level surface, shade and power supply close to the area, a wet weather back up plan.
The client can let us know a song or artist they like and we can play something similar. In general we will choose the set lists.
Review from a recent wedding client "Wave Jazz Trio were fantastic! We hired the band for our wedding reception and the did an amazing job. They brought such a great energy and ambience to the atmosphere and were a delight to work with from start to finish. Very professional band to work with and extremely talented musicians. Highly recommended!"
We have an overtime fee of $150 per musician per hour if asked to stay and play after the agreed time.
