"I really thought I should thank you for your contribution to the Institution of Civil Engineers Awards Dinner in Manchester last week. The event went smoothly and I have received numerous compliments on the event (and not just from winners!) and everyone seemed to find time express their enjoyment of your music. Without doubt the ambience created by Occasional Jazz gave a relaxed and conversational atmosphere that all our guests enjoyed immensely and enhanced the networking opportunities afforded by the Annual Dinner.

There is no doubt I will be making recommendations to my successor for next year's event."

"I just wanted to say a big thank you to you for the set you did at Dave's party last week. I cannot recommend you highly enough - the music was a perfect start to the party and got everyone (from 3 years to 73 years) up dancing! Fantastic! Please let us know if you are ever playing anywhere in the Manchester area as we'd all love to come and hear you again! "

"Alex and Adam played for us at a family party held in August at The Burlton Inn, Burlton. Not only were they very professional, everybody enjoyed their repertoire, we have no hesitation in recommending them to add enjoyment to any occasion. "

"Occasional Jazz were recommended to us by a friend for our wedding reception and we were thoroughly impressed with them. They were very versatile and classy, evoking a relaxed and intimate atmosphere while playing throughout the meal, which contrasted with the more upbeat music that my friends and family danced to. They were very professional and I would definitely recommend them to others."

"Occasional Jazz are fantastic! Their jazz standards and modern interpretations provided the ideal accompaniment to the drinks reception at our wedding as well for the dancing later on. Alex and Adam are a friendly, versatile and professional partnership who we would have no hesitation in recommending in the future."
