All That Jazz really is one of the country's finest Jazz specialists working in the music business today. Whether it's atmospheric music during dining, or at a drinks reception, music for dancing or an all out concert, All That Jazz is the perfect choice to add style and sophistication to any event.
All That Jazz has a wealth of experience playing at high profile events across the country. They have appeared on ITV's "This Morning" show with Philip Schofield and Fern Britten and have also performed as the backing band to the 2006 "X Factor" runner up, Ray Quinn.
They have also appeared at venues such as The Grosvenor House and Hilton Hotel London, The Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club and the NEC Birmingham, The Crown Plaza Manchester and the Royal Berkshire Hotel Surrey, to name just a few. They have also made countless appearances at stately homes and country house hotels, for occasions such as corporate events, weddings, parties and birthday celebrations etc, as well as being engaged by the British Military on many events throughout the year.
All That Jazz is happy to be completely flexible with regard to the ensemble line up, dress code, special requests, set and playing times etc in order to meet the requirements of the client exactly, to ensure that the event is a complete success and enjoyed by all.
All That Jazz is made up of hand picked professional musicians based throughout the UK and led by Mathew Richardson Bmus (Hons) who is a former scholarship student of the Royal Academy of Music London. Away from the ensemble Mathew along with the other members enjoy vast success as freelance musicians working at home and abroad on television, radio, on commercially available recordings and in some of the country's finest concert venues.
All That Jazz can be employed in the following standard line ups: - (Bespoke tailor made line ups are available on request i.e. solo, duo etc.)
Standard Trio = (Piano, Bass, Drums)... This size of ensemble is perfect to provide music at a background level, which is clearly audible but does not interfere with the lively conversations taking place between family and friends or colleagues. The musicians have honed their skills over many years of playing corporate, wedding and military events where the ability to play low level swinging music is essential. The All That Jazz Trio creates a relaxed and classy atmosphere which enhances immensely the enjoyment of any meal or drinks reception. Alternative Trio line ups are available on request.
Quartet = (Sax, Piano, Bass, Drums)... Still perfectly at home playing at background level as described in the Trio section, but with the addition of the saxophone to the rhythm section, the quartet has the ability to perform a fully blown Jazz gig to any size of audience, playing a set of Jazz Standards fused if necessary with Funk, Soul and Blues tunes just for good measure. This ensemble is perfect not only for functions such as corporate, wedding, birthday and military but also as the main evening’s entertainment at any jazz club, restaurant, venue or bar, providing a full concert for all music lovers. A range of P.A. sizes are available on request to cater for any size of event. Alternative Quartet line ups are available on request.
Quintet = (Vocals, Sax, Piano, Bass, Drums) With the addition of vocals to the quartet, The All That Jazz Quintet is able to play all of the famous Swing Standards from Sinatra to Ella Fitzgerald and very much more. Since Robbie Williams re-popularised the ‘Rat Pack’ repertoire with his number one hit “Have You Met Miss Jones”, this is the perfect time and ensemble to entertain any audience in that style through to more modern ballads and bossa novas from the likes of Nora Jones and Diana Krall. Great for functions such as corporate, wedding, birthday and military but also as the main evening’s entertainment at any jazz club, restaurant, venue or bar, providing a full concert for all music lovers. Alternative Quintet line ups are available on request.

"Dear Seth,
I am writing to say how impressed and pleased we were with 'All that jazz' when they played at Rachel and Alex's wedding in Grasmere on Saturday... They were excellent and the singer had a beautiful voice. Could you please convey our thanks to them. We have just returned from Brecon jazz festival, and I think they would have gone down very well there. If we ever have the opportunity we would certainly book them again.T
Thanks for helping to make our day so wonderful.
Yours sincerely,
Ann Gibbons"

"Hi Seth,
I would just like to thank you for making booking our entertainment for the wedding extremely easy and pleasant.
The band were exactly what we were looking for. Professional, friendly, easy going and of course extremely talented. It may have helped that Laura is beautiful that kept a few of our guests on the dance floor most of the evening!!
Everything went perfectly, and have already had friends of mine who are getting married next year requesting details. Everyone commented that the band were excellent, and we would most definitely agree.
Thanks again Seth
Stu"

"Hi Paul
Thanks for your note about our Wedding Party on Saturday. It was indeed a very wet event, however, everyone stayed dry in the marquee and I'm pleased to say that the rain didn't dampen our spirits and the party went well into the early hours of the morning.
All That Jazz were fabulous! The combination of keyboard, bass and saxophone was perfect - not too loud so folks could still talk easily. The guys played a wide selection of music which was ideal for the occasion and they were happy to respond to requests during the evening.
There was even dancing! Several of our guests were themselves jazz musicians and were more than happy just to listen to the entertainment, with a glass or two!
Thanks very much for providing an excellent service - it was first class.
Kind regards.

"Hi James,
Thank you for all your help regarding my event yesterday it went really well!
Just to drop you a line to let you know how yesterday’s event went.
All that Jazz were fantastic, they arrived on time they set up in a smaller space than arranged but easily adjusted without any problems.
Because of the nature of the event- Mat and the band dropped the sound levels which made brilliant ‘lounge music’ and enabled every one to enjoy the afternoon with the perfect ambience.
I would definitely recommend All that Jazz to fellow event organisers as well as family and friends who have any parties or events.
Thank you for putting us in touch with such a fab band that ticked all the boxes!
Kind Regards

"Thanks for the email Pete, and the congratulations. The day was a great success and the band were a large part of the reason as to why the evening went so swimmingly.
Lovely guys - professional and friendly, and attentive to our needs. They even wrote a short note in our wedding book, which was a lovely surprise! I have had a number of guests so far make special mention of how great the music was, and how much they enjoyed the sets that the band played.
I am only sad that I was unable to thank them personally and wish them a safe journey back - as is the nature of these events, I was run off my feet all night trying to get round to see everyone (which I still failed to do!). When I looked up, they were all packed up and gone!
Please extend my hearty thanks to yourself and the band for having provided us with a completely stress-free booking, and entertainment on the night. Please feel free to use any of the above as promotional material on the site, or in any independent material that the band might be producing. Should you require a more formalised statement, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Once again, my thanks to you and the band for making our day a very special one.
