for your
Corporate Event or Party
Are you tired of searching directory sites advertising wedding bands that call themselves jazz bands? I offer something much better: real, working New York jazz bands comprised of some of the most highly regarded jazz musicians in the world. And to make things simple, I’ve organized this site to make it easy for you find the perfect band for your specific needs:
My name is Chuck Braman and I’m a jazz drummer-bandleader with nearly thirty years of experience in New York. I lead real working bands, each with its own unique personnel, style and repertoire. Members of my groups are world-class jazz musicians who have performed, toured or recorded with a who’s who of music. If you are planning a party or a wedding, choosing us will provide a sophisticated New York City experience that your guests will long remember. If you are looking for a great jazz band for your restaurant, jazz club or concert series, my bands are among the very best that New York has to offer.
(In addition to the three bands below, you can find many more videos of many more of my jazz trios, quartets, and quintets here.)
You can find verified third-party reviews of us in Google, Yelp, The Knot, Wedding Wire, and The Better Business Bureau. To date, these reviews, of which there are now more than 60, have never been less than five stars.
In addition to these formal reviews, we have received hundreds of informal comments in emails that have all been positive.
You will find my two favorite formal reviews following the review site rating icons I have gathered below. Below that, click on the “Click here for 100+ more reviews” heading to find many more reviews and comments from clients (in case you’re wondering, I’ve never received a negative comment) and gathered from both third-party review sites and emails.
“For the past five years I have hosted a holiday party for approximately 220 guests. I have had many bands and DJ’s. No one has ever been asked to play for another party except for Chuck.
Dreading looking for yet another band I started to surf the Internet and found New York Jazz Bands. I liked what I heard and decided to give Chuck I call... the best decision I could have made. He invited me to the city to listen to him play in person and I was blown away by how beautifully they played and the singer’s melodic voice.
That was all I needed to make my decision… I immediately booked them for two parties.
For the first party, I told Chuck about the guests and exactly what I was looking for… he put together the perfect five-piece ensemble. All night my guests were telling me how wonderful the band was and that they were the perfect fit for my event. It was the first time that no one complained about the type of music, the loudness or the that the band took more breaks then they played!
At the end of the night I signed them on for next year’s Holiday party (I am also having their trio play at a small gathering next week).
I cannot recommend them enough! They are professional, polite, considerate of your needs, have reasonable rates (and who can say that in NYC) and are altogether terrific... there are not enough good things to say about them!
If you’re looking for good jazz and great singers… honestly, there is no need to look any further—YOU’VE FOUND WHAT YOU’RE LOOKING FOR RIGHT HERE!”
“Chuck went above and beyond to ensure that the music at our wedding went more smoothly than could have been hoped for. The transition from cocktail hour to reception was flawless, and the breakdown after dinner to give way to the DJ was swift and silent (although I personally would have loved it if the band could have performed all night!). I can honestly say that the caliber of musicians that Chuck assembled is unmatched on the NY scene in general, and simply blows away any other ‘wedding band.’ I individually researched each member of the band prior to booking, and each one has an impressive background with stellar credentials. In terms of talent, skill, and experience, the band was simply fantastic. I've never heard a hotter band at a wedding, period.
The value for musicians of this caliber is untouchable in NYC, or anywhere really. The reasonable prices allowed us to allocate funds for music towards the Indian trio for our ceremony, which really authenticated the feel of our ceremony, and also allowed us to get a DJ into our budget for the later evening, which kept my wife happy!
It was great to get to meet Chuck and to discuss jazz with an accomplished lifelong musician with such a cool background and experience. The website made it easy for me to see some of the musicians that Chuck works with in action, which allowed me to convince my wife that there was no better band out there for our wedding. Furthermore, despite Chuck's background and jazz sensibility, he fits completely outside the mold of the stereotypical jazz musician in the areas of punctuality and professionalism and customer service... These are not things that are easy to find in true jazz musicians! Chuck is one of a kind and his bands are killer. I wish I had a soundboard recording of the evening!”
Thank you, Chuck, for an incredible performance at our company's celebratory event. I highly recommend his jazz trio—they are truly exceptional and classy.
Nicolas Arreste, Google Review, Corporate Celebration, Cresilon Offices, November 30, 2022, Guitar Trio
The band was perfect! The song selections were great. They set the exact atmosphere we were hoping for. Personally speaking, I was blown away by the level of musicianship. They really made it a wonderful night.
Jim Prunetti, Father, Google Review, Wedding, The Bowery Hotel, November 21, 2020, Guitar Quartet
They were phenomenal! The talent of everyone involved was unmatched, and their performances elevated the entire event. I will certainly try to work with them again in the future, and I recommend them wholeheartedly.
Joseph Vatter, Wedding Planner, Brooklyn Grange, October 27, 2021; Google Review; Vocal Quartet/Quintet
I was looking to hire a Jazz Trio and I hit the jackpot with Chuck and his musical genius colleagues. If I had the space and the resources, I would hire them to play seven days a week in my home. Absolutely flawless and outstanding.
Keith, Party, Private Home, October 24, 2021; Google Review; Piano Trio
Chuck and his team did my wedding and they are amazing professionals. This is a group of band members that you can tell truly appreciate playing together and love what they do. I’m so happy I chose them.
Natalya Groysman, Wedding, Lamb’s Hill, September 6, 2021; Google Review; Vocal Quartet/Quintet
The best jazz band and most impressive (and professional) jazz band leader in the New York City (NYC) metropolitan area. They simply knocked it out of the park. We cannot recommend them enough!

Chuck and his band gave a wonderful performance at our wedding. Their music was amazing and perfect during the ceremony, cocktail hour and after party. Before the event, we had a lot of discussions about the type of music and the songs we would like to have. They gave us many important suggestions and even learnt several new songs specially for us. Our family and guests are so impressed by the great performance. Thank you very much!
Haoran Zhang, October 20, 2019; The Knot Review; Vocal Trio

I have planned many events for many prestigious people all over the world they were the perfect touch to end the nite at the NYC Plaza Hotel.
Stephanie Cirami, July 15, 2019; Facebook Review; Vocal Quartet/Quintet, The Grand Ballroom, The Plaza Hotel
Chuck and his trio were fantastic! I had high hopes and expectations and they exceeded them. Many people commented to me about the quality of their performance. I appreciated their professionalism and flexibility, and how elegantly they all presented themselves at the luncheon. I hope I have the chance to work with Chuck again and certainly will recommend him to my friends and family!

Chuck and his bandmates are the absolute best. Very professional, fun, and talented. I’ve used them for the past two years for our annual customer event and I’ve recommended him to the women who plan our holiday party.
Dina Halligan, World Wide Technology, Recommendation to a friend, February 22, 2019
New York Jazz Bands was a dream to work with. Not only was Chuck extremely responsive, the band rocked! The next time we are looking for a jazz band we will hire New York Jazz Bands again.
Kaela Duff, January 17, 2019; Google Review; Guitar Trio/Quartet
Communication: the band leader was prompt to reply, knowledgeable, and all around friendly in his approach. Feedback from guests was overwhelmingly positive. Would definitely hire them again and highly recommend them to anyone needing to enjoy quality music.
Andrew Chan, January 2, 2019; Google Review; Trumpet-Saxophone Quintet
The quartet you assembled was fantastic and the music was perfect. I am so glad to have met you and will highly recommend using your talents in the future.
Laura Gersh, December 19, 2018; Thank-you email; Guitar Trio/Quartet
I had the pleasure of hearing Chuck’s quartet play during an engagement party and they were fantastic. Their music added to the warmth of the night and was just the right balance of uptempo songs and ballads to match the energy of the event. They were all talented musicians and their performances were flawless. Chuck was also a great bandleader, he was quick to respond to the host's needs and was always pleasant and professional. Chuck’s band would be an asset to any event, party no matter how casual or formal. Hire them, you won't be disappointed.
Laura Gersh, December 19, 2018; BBB Review; Guitar Trio/Quartet
This band, hands-down, is phenomenal. I hired them for my annual awards gala at the Plaza hotel because I needed a classy ensemble to complement the prestige of the Plaza! They made the evening beautiful, elegant and memorable! So easy to work with and I will definitely use them for future events.
Stephanie Cirami, December 15, 2018; Google Review; Vocal Quartet/Quintet
Your team was amazing, everyone enjoyed the band so much, and you were a pleasure to work with.

Our experience with New York Jazz Bands was nothing short of amazing! Chuck and his team are absolutely talented and proficient at what they do.
Athena Johnson, November 11, 2018; Google Review; Trumpet-Saxophone Quintet
On 10/27/18, for my 50th Birthday, my wife treated me for a jazz band to play at home to a small group of family and friends in Short Hills, NJ, for around 35 people. I called several Jazz groups on 10/25/18 and viewed videos from NYC, NJ, and PA groups. The prices for my event varied in all scale and ranges. I zeroed in on a solo performer and Chuck was able to book my event confirmed it in 3 days. On the day of the event 10/27/18, about 4 hours prior to the start of the event, I had a change of heart and requested if Chuck could find me a trio. He not only found me a trio, a vocal, a bass and a drummer, but he even showed up 1 1/2 hours early for the event to work with the acoustics, room set-up, music selection, and all the logistics!
Gilbert Garcia, October 28, 2018; The Knot Review; Vocal Trio
I'm still rather speechless at how amazing our wedding felt for me, and you and your band were a major part of it. Now that we are back from our honeymoon (pardon our delay!), we are hearing our friends sing your praises as well! It's so much fun to relive. Thank you for making our evening so very special for us. You have been so great to us from the very beginning—a true gentleman, and professional. We were beyond blessed to have you for our evening.
Jenna Watson, Bride, Thank-you Note, Wedding, The W Loft, October 21, 2018, Trumpet-Saxophone Quintet
I've been using Chuck's band in my restaurant on and off for the past couple years, and I couldn't be happier with them. They're always on time, always play great, and we always get good comments from our customers.
Chakir Bennani, September 30, 2018; Google Review; Guitar Trio/Quartet
Chuck and his team were extremely professional and on top of their game in regard to bringing an eclectic array of talent and style to our Stella Artois events multiple times here in NYC. I would not only recommend them here locally in NYC but if you have any further needs in the Tri-State area is recommended!
Andrew Stallings, August 13, 2018; Facebook Review; Vocal Quartet/Quintet
A huge thank you to the New York Jazz Bands, Chuck and team did an incredible job at my boss farewell celebration. For one, they were accommodating at the last minute, I found out that my boss was really into Jazz and I booked the New York Jazz Bands as a surprise for him. When he walked into space and realized they were there, the look on his face said it all (he was very happy). He came to me the next day and asked about the band and mentioned how truly amazing they were, He was very impressed with their work. not to mention all the cool points I got from my co-workers. Thanks a million for the everything and I can't wait to plan another event to book the New York Jazz Bands. Kind regards, *****
Tandy Daley, July 16, 2018; BBB Review; Guitar Trio/Quartet
Chuck and his band performed at our wedding in NYC at 620 Loft & Garden in June. Chuck was sensational from the very start with his prompt responses, he was polite and worked in well with all of our caterers, DJ and officiant. The music was on point and exactly what we were looking for which set the scene for our night, receiving many compliments from our guests. We have searched for the perfect Jazz band in New York for years now and been disappointed until we came across the New York jazz band!
Monique Gheri, June 16, 2018; Facebook Review; Vocal Trio
Chuck and his band performed at our wedding. Not only were they incredibly talented, they were polite, punctual and easy to deal with. They worked in with our DJ, our officiant, and our catering to create the perfect day!
Chris Keenan, June 16, 2018; Google Review; Vocal Trio
We contacted Chuck and requested a specific singer, and a year later they played the cocktail hour at our wedding. That easy. The band sounded great and our guests all had positive things to say. Very highly recommended!
Jordan Hacker, April 30, 2018; Google Review; Vocal Trio
My experience with Chuck Braman of New York Jazz Bands happened a decade ago, but I recently heard them and this reminded me of something that happened in the past but was so positive that this late review is well deserved. Back in 2007, I was president of a major NY asset management business and we hired Chuck’s jazz quartet to play at our holiday party at a well-known midtown private club. I was pleased enough with Chuck, personally, as well as his band to re-book them for our 2008 party. This involved signing a new contract and paying a fee to reserve the date. As it happened the financial crisis struck and we canceled the party. Chuck could have easily kept the deposit—I told him we could put it towards the following year, but he was decent enough to volunteer to return it to us. That made him in my book highly honorable. He is as good a person as his music.
E.A. Kratzman, former president, Katonah Debt Advisors, Better Business Bureau Review, March 23rd, 2018
New York Jazz Bands is remarkable! The group’s dynamics, balance of tone, and timing were absolute perfection. Chuck is a gentleman and so easy to work with. Hands down and thumbs up—they are simply the best! New York Jazz Bands is a first-rate choice for programming.
Christine Tinerino, January 14, 2018; BBB Review of the Vocal Quartet/Quintet
Chuck and the gang are not only amazing musicians, but they were also a joy to work with! Super friendly, very laid back but professional at the same time.

The music was perfect and everybody loved the jazz element.

Chuck Braman and his group played at my daughter’s wedding at the Central Park Boathouse. I am a huge jazz fan and was looking for a group of real musicians who could really play—not just anonymous, cocktail-style piano music. Chuck and his group were phenomenal. Professional, engaged and great musicians all.

My brother and sister-in-law, both musicians and music teachers, hired Chuck in 2011 to play during their cocktail hour. At the time I was dating my now husband. We enjoyed listening to New York Jazz Bands so much that night, that the second we got engaged we contacted Chuck and booked him for our wedding as well. I looked forward to our cocktail hour all year! They did not disappoint. One of my fondest memories of our wedding was dancing with my new husband to beautiful music. Thanks for everything Chuck!

You guys were excellent. Not only did I have people come up to me during the concert to let me know how much they enjoyed your concert, I’ve had people calling me the past two days at Village to ask that we bring you guys back next year. I think it is safe to say you guys will be one of the first calls we make when planning next summer’s concert series. I and Mayor Celender really enjoyed your show as well. Thank you so much for such a great concert.

Having you musicians perform on the Ferry Terminal promenade was so fitting and intimate for this particular event. I enjoyed passing by and seeing tourists stop to listen to your music.

We first worked together at a wedding last June where he and a few of his fellow musicians played for the cocktail hour at a wedding I planned/designed. They were amazing—not only in terms of their music, but also in the way they presented themselves—such a pleasure to work with during the planning process, friendly as could be in person, and flawless in their musical execution. If you’re looking for a jazz band for your wedding or another event, look no further.
Adrienne O’Connor, Wedding Planner, Wedding Cocktail Hour, Elihu Island, Connecticut, Google Review, June 22, 2013, Guitar Trio/Quartet
Chuck and his band provided such a cool and sophisticated vibe to the party, I never wanted the cocktail hour to end. They were very easy to work with and I felt we were always on the same page sonically and aesthetically.
Julian Madden, Wedding Cocktail Hour, Island Farm on Elihu Island, Connecticut, Google Review, June 22, 2013, Guitar Trio/Quartet
We heard nothing but compliments—your group was great!
Kate Harrington, Berman Group; The Sea Grill, Manhattan, Thank-you note, June 12, 2013, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet
Thank you very much for your excellent performance on my wedding day. Everyone raved about you and your sidemen.
Sam Panagoulias, Wedding Cocktail Hour, Stage 6 at Steiner Studios, Manhattan, Thank-you note, May 18, 2013, Saxophone Quartet
It was our pleasure to have you play at our wedding. Thanks for everything.
Juan María, Wedding Rehearsal, The Metropolitan Club, Manhattan, Thank-you note, May 10, 2013, Guitar Trio/Quartet
Chuck was very involved in the planning of our evening, to the point where he accommodated additional requests we had for our ceremony (Pianist for our ceremony, audio setup etc). We had several song requests and various changes which he was happy to accommodate. The music played was what we expected but the pauses in between songs was a bit too long, the transitions weren’t as smooth. We would have liked the lead singer to more command in moving the process along, and we would not have minded if the vocalist was more aggressive with her vocal presence during her songs. We feel that meeting the band beforehand would have helped smooth the process better, but we understand that given the limited preparation. We are thankful for all that was done for our special day. We know there are so many things to prepare for but overall we were happy with the service.

Felipe Bertonha, Alshop (Brazil); Provocateur, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, January 15, 2013, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet
We had Chuck and his jazz trio play for our December wedding. The music was fantastic, the guys were great, flexible and totally professional, and the price was reasonable (for NYC!!!). Really happy with this group and would recommend them unreservedly to others.
Gillian & Kevin Sheehan, Wedding Cocktail Hour, New Leaf Restaurant and Bar, Bronx, Wedding Wire Review, December 16, 2012, Piano Trio
It has been such a pleasure working with New York Jazz Bands. Chuck and his band members were very professional on stage and played perfectly for our attendees and executives in attendance. Our guests enjoyed every minute of it and made their way closer to the band as the night progressed. I hope to work with Chuck on more corporate occasions in the future.

The band was great, absolutely wonderful. A lot of good comments from my guests.
Vincent Cornacchia, Wedding Cocktail Hour, Villa Borghese, Wappingers Falls, Dutchess County, Thank-you Note, October 13, 2012, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet
Chuck Braman’s jazz bands are professional and wonderful to work with. We recently hired the vibraphone trio for our son’s wedding at home. They were PERFECT for the ceremony and cocktail hour and accommodated my son's request for a special song by adapting it to the vibraphone. We were grateful and impressed. We highly recommend NY Jazz Bands!
Sally O’Connell, Wedding Cocktail Hour, Private Home, September 29, 2012; Vibraphone Trio, Facebook Visitor Post, September 29, 2012, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet
The band performed during a reception and also after dinner, and was very easy to work with and extremely professional. The sound levels were perfectly adjusted for each performance.
Joan Alkiewicz, Philanthropy Associate/Event Administrator, Guideposts Foundation; Helmsley Park Lane Hotel, Manhattan, Solicited Review, September 28, 2012, Vocal Trio
Thank you for entertaining us last night. You guys did a great job!
Amanda S., Fundraiser, Montammy Golf Club, Alpine, New Jersey, Thank-you Note, September 24, 2012, Vocal Quartet
We could not have asked for more from your band—absolutely amazing. I can't tell you how many people shared positive comments about your band.
Michael & Denise Adin, Wedding Reception, Majestic Gardens, Rocky Point, North Shore, Hamptons, Thank-you Note, August 25, 2012, Vocal Quartet
Chuck and the band members were extremely accommodating. I was planning a surprise party, and they stood by at a local Starbucks until they got the all clear! The music really added to the evening. It was great music at an appropriate volume.
Jocelyn Jonas, Private Home, Englewood, NJ, Solicited Review, August 19, 2012, Saxophone Quartet
First of all, thank you so much for pulling off my last minute requests. I cant begin to express how happy we were to have you playing for us. We will definitely use you should we have more events in NY and will recommend you to our friends.
Sarah Muse, Blue Room @ Gansevoort Park Avenue, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, July 6, 2012, Vocal Trio
It was a pleasure having you guys play at our event last night—I believe it enriched our party and many have said that they couldn’t have imagined the party without.
Candice Mason, Brunswick Group; Bryant Park Grill, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, June 28, 2012, Guitar Trio/Quartet
It was fabulous to have your group join us for the AMBLE event. What a really terrific day! Congrats to you and the band for a gorgeous afternoon of music!
Anita Jacobs, Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, Concert, Crown Heights, Thank-you Note, June 2, 2012, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet (photo, above)
Not only was the music great, but you and your sidemen did a great job of keeping the right tempo and tone for the evening. When we needed quiet background, that is what we got, conversely when everyone was drinking during the cocktail hour, you played perfectly exactly the type of upbeat jazz I was looking for. You are very good at feeling out the space and atmosphere and did a wonderful job at playing at just the right volume throughout the whole night. You guys are consummate professionals and I was very pleased with your performance. I would certainly recommend you to a friend or colleague and I would say on a scale of 1 to 10, you guys were an 11… The music was great, your professional demeanor was impeccable, your awareness of what to play based on the atmosphere of the space was also to be praised and overall you guys just did an awesome job. Both Amanda and I would like to thank you for making our wedding weekend just that much better and as I said, you will be first on my list if I am looking into Jazz musicians for an event. Thank you, Chuck, you should be very proud of a job extremely well done.

Saturday evening was lovely. I have also passed your info on to our cultural team. Perhaps they will use your quartet in the future as well.

Laurette Hashim, Wedding Reception, New York Botanical Garden, November 18, 2011; Saxophone Quartet, Thank-you Note, November 18, 2011, Saxophone Quartet
Chuck was a dream to work with. A great communicator throughout and very patient when we kept changing instrumentation. Everyone was completely professional. Having the trio made the party feel like a party. Loved it. Thanks so much for being so great and I will definitely recommend you very highly.
Leslie Siegel, Locanda Verde, Manhattan, Solicited Review, November 13, 2011, Piano Trio
Easy, easy, easy. Our experience was just that. The wedding itself was a dream and Chuck, Nicki & Ron provided beautiful music that just made our event so special. Our driving words for the wedding were simple and elegant, and I can assure you that Chuck and his colleagues were beyond exceptional. We were most satisfied with all the wonderful comments we got (and continue to get 3 months later!) at how wonderful the music was. Nicki was a special standout for us. How unique to have a female string bassist, who sings! And what a voice…. These guys were the best and we felt so fortunate to have "happened upon them" doing a simple Youtube search. They far exceeded our expectations.
Michael Beltran, Wedding Reception, Del Posto, Manhattan, Solicited Review, October 30, 2011, Vocal Trio
The jazz trio was perfect for our rehearsal dinner. All of the performers were incredibly nice, professional and talented. Everyone who attended our rehearsal dinner had the highest praise for the trio. Thanks so much for making our event extra special!
Ann-Elizabeth Ostrager, Wedding Rehearsal, Bryant Park Grill, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, October 28, 2011, Guitar Trio/Quartet
Thank you so much for your wonderful performance at our wedding. We had such an amazing night and your music contributed immensely to the ambiance. I will happily recommend your band to anyone I know who is getting married or having an event in the city—we were impressed beyond words!
Jill Hamers, Wedding Reception, S.P.Q.R. Restaurant, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, October 1, 2011, Piano Trio
My apologies for not sending this note sooner; the past two weeks have been a whirlwind.
Working with you was an absolute pleasure.
Samantha Acunto, Wedding Cocktail Hour, Studio 450, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, September 30, 2011, Guitar Trio/Quartet
I hired Chuck and his Saxophone Quartet for our annual Math for America Fall Function this year. I have all wonderful things to say about my experience with the band. They were EARLY, clean cut, well dressed and a pleasure to work with. The set-list was a mix of jazz moderns pieces and standards. Their sound was great and you could tell they were comfortable playing with each other. It was such a successful evening, we are having them back again next year.
Stephanie Diaz, Lorelei Enterprises and Events; Cipriani Wall Street, Manhattan, Solicited Review, September 24, 2011, Saxophone Quartet (photo, above, the band is on the balcony above the stage on left)
Our national firm held an East Coast anniversary event at an indoor/outdoor loft space in the Fall. We wanted a real New York vibe for our event and hired the Vibraphone Quartet. From the moment our guests entered the party space, they were greeted with the subtle sounds of jazz. Immediately it created the vibe sought. The musicians were amazing, wonderfully professional, and talented. It is 3 months later and we are still hearing compliments on how wonderful the party was.
Denise A. Harris, Legal Administrator, Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP; 620 Loft & Garden, Manhattan, Solicited Review, September 22, 2011, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet
As usual, the performance by this wonderful Jazz Quintet was enjoyed by our many concert-goers and we look forward to having you join us at other Borough President events.

Thank you so much for putting a band together at the last minute! You are really great to work with and I look forward to doing more events with you in the future.

I wanted to thank you for performing at the Water for Elephants Premiere. It was a pleasure to work with you and we are so grateful that you could accommodate our last minute request to stay for the additional two hours. The performance was the perfect addition to Water for Elephants and it really enhanced the entire feel of the premiere. You and the other members of the trio had an outstanding performance and we look forward to working with you again in the future.

They did a great performance, at the end everybody was happy.
Akin A, Celebration, Private Home, Manhattan, Solicited Review, September 18, 2010, Saxophone Quartet
There were between 8 and 10 music teachers and when my new wife and I walked over to our friends during our wedding cocktail hour, we understood why they congregated next to the trio. Chuck’s is a top-notch group. If you're looking for a relaxed, mature, talented trio to play at your wedding, look no further than Chuck’s groups. They played Bill Evans charts and standards as well. My only regret is that my wife and I weren't able to sit next to the trio for a half hour sipping wine and enjoying the atmosphere. We spent a good part of our extended cocktail hour saying hello to friends who traveled from afar. Bravo, Chuck.
George Macchio, Wedding Cocktail Hour, Vanderbilt Mansion, Hyde Park, Solicited Review, August 6, 2010, Piano Trio
We want to thank you and the band so much for your lovely performance at our wedding. It was truly our pleasure to have you guys with us on Saturday and made our wedding truly special and romantic.

It was a pleasure working with The Chuck Braman Trio. 5’s across the board. Chuck had an understanding of exactly what I was looking for in terms of the music meshing with the atmosphere of my cocktail party. He and his band were very professional, on time, dressed sharp, and played very well. I would recommend them to anyone.
Michael Fogarty, Sr Associate, Sapient Global Markets; 1600 Broadway, Manhattan, Solicited Review, June 22, 2010, Guitar Trio/Quartet
Your band and Tessa were all we could have asked for. It was a class act and I will recommend you any chance I get.
Arthur Popa, Wedding Reception, Thatched Cottage, Centerport, Suffolk County, Long Island, Thank-you Note, April 17, 2010, Vocal Quartet
We had the most wonderful party with the Chuck Braman Trio! We were able to make the arrangements easily. His website was clear and loaded with great choices. He provided us with a song list from which to choose that had more fabulous standards than we could have played in our time frame. The trio arrived at our venue early, was ready to play when guests arrived and played extra per our request. I wholeheartedly recommend them and would use them again in a heartbeat! Thanks, Chuck!
Charles Melniker, Wedding Cocktail Hour, Sans Souci of Sea Cliff, Sea Cliff, Solicited Review, November 21, 2009, Vocal Trio
Chuck Braman’s trio played at our wedding. Their music was great. It created the exact ambiance we were aiming for and helped to make the event every bit as good as we had hoped.
Arthur Goldfrank, Wedding Cocktail Hour, Brasserie 8 1/2, Manhattan, Solicited Review, November 18, 2009, Guitar Trio/Quartet
Thank you so much, we really enjoyed the music. We appreciate the professionalism of your group and would recommend your group to friends and family.
Steve Guerra, Wedding Reception, Pleasantdale Chateau & Conference, West Orange, NJ, Thank-you Note, May 22, 2009, Guitar Trio/Quartet
I just wanted to follow up and say that the jazz trio was great last week. I received a lot of great feedback on them.

Simon J. Russell, Assistant General Manager, The Heights Casino, Brooklyn Heights, Thank-you Note, May 6, 2009, Vocal Trio
FYI… you’ve gotten great reviews from my colleagues in your recent performances with Empire.
Danny Bergold, Empire Force Events, Inc.; Spark's Steakhouse, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, December 8, 2008, Guitar Trio/Quartet
Thanks again for last night. You and the guys were wonderful, so easy to work with and of course, sounded great!
Julie Migliacci, Empire Force Events, Inc.; Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, November 20, 2008, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet
I loved our wedding. And my husband loved our wedding. The guests loved our wedding, my Mom loved our wedding (imagine that) and Trixie, my Pup of Honor, loved our wedding. It was exactly as I pictured it… yet nothing I could have ever imagined. It was a dreamy, wonderful, laid-back, stylish and “cool” Saturday afternoon. You and your band provided the perfect soundtrack to the perfect day—the smooth jazz classics and songbook standards were exactly what Steve and I envisioned. Thank you for your enthusiasm and patience the weeks leading up to the wedding. I enjoyed chatting with you about music in general, and specifically as it pertained to our wedding. Oh, and thank you for the cool, jazzy Hava Nagila. My mom wanted to hora… and you guys accommodated so sweetly. I hope to have the opportunity to hear you all again sometime. You are all incredibly talented.
Andi Carey, Wedding Reception, Water's Edge Restaurant, Long Island City, Solicited Review, September 27, 2008, Saxophone Quartet
Thank you so much for playing at our wedding and helping in making it such a beautiful event. When we were looking for music for our event, we were disappointed to meet with “professional” music producers who offer “jazz bands” which are so remote from the spirit of jazz. So we were looking for something better. The other choice was to try and speak with some performers at a Jazz club and see whether they could come. The risk was, however, that one never really knows how well such players would adjust to a wedding event, that requires not only a great vibe, but also someone who is reliable, attentive to details, and respectful of the occasion.
Diana Shainok, Wedding Reception, The Harold Pratt House & Peterson Hall, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, September 20, 2008, Vocal Quartet
Thanks for sharing your wonderful music on such a special day for us. We truly enjoyed it. Hope to hear you again at a local NYC haunt soon!
Margit Detweiler, Wedding Reception, Blue Hill at Stone Barnes, Pocantico Hills, Thank-you Note, July 5, 2008, Vocal Quartet
My wife and I were married on Sunday, June 29, 2008. We hired the Chuck Braman Quartet from searching the internet and enjoyed their sound. As it turned out, they were even better in person and did not disappoint (very professional). All of our guests (unsolicited) asked how we found the band and thought they were outstanding. Although we did not hire a "singer" the music was phenomenal. If you love jazz we highly recommend this band.
Nick Poggi, Wedding Reception, Hilton Garden Inn, Staten Island, Solicited Review, June 29, 2008, Saxophone Quartet
Everyone was also treated to a fabulous jazz ensemble that received rave revues. All I can say is that the weather was wonderful, the night superb and the compliments came rolling in from both the guests and the vendors.
Sofi Kaufman, Organizer, Chef's Nite Out, Queens, NY, Solicited Review, June 25, 2008, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet
I have been meaning to write this note forever. I just wanted to let you know that our wedding was incredible and your music was a big part making it such a special event. Thank you so much for setting the mode for the event and putting on a great show. Our guests loved you guys and we will certainly pass your name on to friends and family.
Gerald Cooper, Wedding Reception, Bryant Park Grill, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, May 10, 2008, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet
I had Chuck and his band come and play at the biggest social event that my college hosts every year. The band was the most memorable part of the whole experience! Everyone had such an amazing time dancing to the classical jazz music and it set the backdrop for our "dream-like New York" theme that evening. The ambiance that he and his crew created got everyone in the mood to jive! The singer was absolutely fabulous and there is no doubt in my mind that I would use his band again in the future. They created memories that will last a lifetime. It was a magical evening because of Chuck and his group!
Angie O, The Manhattan Penthouse, Manhattan, Solicited Review, April 25, 2008, Vocal Quartet
I would just like to thank you for making my husband’s 40th Birthday so memorable. You know exactly what type of music selections to play and created the perfect mood and setting. The sound and acoustics were perfect for the room, which many commented on. All of our guests had such a wonderful time and said your band was “the perfect choice.“ We were so happy how the party turned out and you were a big part of that. Thanks again!
Jennifer E, Merchant's Restaurant, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, October 25, 2007, Saxophone Quartet

Christina & Rob Gaito, Wedding Reception, The Lighthouse, Manhattan, Thank-you Note, November 17, 2006, Piano Trio
Esther and I wanted to thank you for the great performance of your jazz band during our wedding reception. The quality of the music and the flexibility you demonstrated helped to make the reception extremely memorable. Your music created the ambiance we were seeking, and (based on the feedback we received) everyone truly enjoyed the listening to the classy riffs during the cocktail hour and dinner. We wish you and your bands continued success in the future.
Bill M, Wedding Reception, The River Cafe, Brooklyn Heights, Thank-you Note, September 19, 2005, Vibraphone Trio/Quartet
What a delight it was to have your Quintet perform at the Garden yesterday! Please thank the group for a phenomenal performance. Please do keep in touch as I would love to have you back (on a “non-blizzard” day). Have a terrific holiday season and a musical, creative, and fun New Year!
