Emma (bass and vocals) met Iliyan (keyboards percussions vocals) at high school and ever since they have been a musical partnership on stage. They both come from a serious classical background Emma as a violinist Iliyan as a percussionist and pianist both with scores of classical concerts under their belt. A wonderful mixture of experience and inspiration Jazz Bite always get the audience going whatever the occasion. They do all sorts of events.
They model themselves on artists such as Randy Crawford Anita O'Day Ella Fitzgerald Diana Krall Oscar Peterson Dave Brubeck Sting and more – with influences like these it is no surprise they call themselves Jazz Bite and compose jazz. When it comes to pleasing an audience however they are extremely versatile with a massive repertoire including soul rhythm ’n’ blues pop and rock from the 50s onward and needless to say jazz standards.
This is how they introduce themselves:
“We call ourselves Jazz Bite because we are into interpreting jazz. We don't put ourselves in the category of jazz musicians and don't try to categorize our music at all. We just give ourselves the freedom of interpretation and that is what we call a ‘bite of jazz’.”
Jazz Bite has a growing network of clients located throughout the UK and Europe including Rotary Club, Texaco oil, Pizza Express, a number of hotels, such as Millennium Mayfair Hotel London, Historic Hotels of Norway , Quality Hotels and Best Western Hotels in Scandinavia and Europe and venues such as Art Club Ruse, The Chapel Bar Islington, The Star Gillingham Kent, The Ship Christchurch also Brittany Ferries, Color Line and many more.
Your Event The duo is happy to consider requests for no extra charge, provided they have at least 4 weeks' notice. They can provide suitable music between sets including chill out, pop and jazz.

"Dear Iliyan and Emma,
We had a wonderful time with you and would very much like to thank you for playing at our wedding!
Your music absolutely made our day. You managed to make ALL of our guests dance and have fun the entire evening long.
It is almost needless to say that we can highly recommend this friendly, uncomplicated and professionally acting group with their popular songs remixed with a bite of jazz.
Thank you and kindest regards
Rafael S."

"Dear Iliyan and Emma,
I just wanted to thank you so very much for Saturday. The guests loved your music and I have had so many positive comments. It was a great present to give my father for it made the party so much fun.
Thank you for driving all the way to Somerset, even though the weather was so dreadful and for remaining professional at all times, particularly in the lead up to the party.
I would recommend you both wholeheartedly, and I am sure that you will get business from guests that were at the party!
Kindest regards,
Rachel Turpin"

"A rather belated thank you for playing at my Daughters Wedding on the 31st July.
A highly professional performance and set up from the time you arrived to the end.
The way you adjusted from back ground music to high tempo, matching the mood of the evening, meant everyone enjoyed themselves.
We all had a great time. Thank you.

"Islington Carers Centre was so pleased to find Alive Net after a search on Google.
Jazz Bite preformed a wide variation of Jazz, Soul, and Pop, also slow and fast tracks. Any request was no trouble at all for them and we were accommodated in every word of the sense.
The feedback from our clients was the best received in the 10 years that I have been the Chef Executive. I would highly recommend Jazz Bite; they have an excellent demeanor and hypnotic presence.
Jazz Bite, ICC would like to thank you both from the Management Board, Staff Team and Clients!"
