Jazz Bands in Lincolnshire

Jazz bands and musicians in Lincolnshire

Jazz is one of the most flexible kinds of live music you can book. In Lincolnshire it works as background for a wedding breakfast or networking reception, a set for a long dinner or an evening of swing and jump jive, and the line-up can be shaped around the event rather than the other way round.

Lincolnshire has a wide choice of places to hold an event, from Washingborough Hall and Branston Hall Hotel to Stoke Rochford Hall. Our jazz acts travel to towns across the county, including Grantham, Stamford and Louth, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice of band.

Not every jazz band sounds the same. You'll find smooth lounge trios, gypsy jazz groups in the Django Reinhardt tradition, trad and New Orleans bands, Latin and bossa nova specialists, and acts who give chart songs a jazz treatment. It's worth deciding which mood you're after before comparing prices.

We've been booking live bands and musicians since 1999, and every jazz act on this page covers Lincolnshire. Travel is built into the quote, the act brings what it needs to be heard properly, and you can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

The essentials:

• Typical cost: from around £500 for a jazz duo to £2,500 or more for a larger band, depending on line-up and date
• Line-ups from solo pianist or duo through to a five or six-piece jazz band
• Background sets for receptions and dinners, or livelier swing for dancing
• Travel is included in every quote
• Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Think about when the music will play. Background jazz during drinks or a meal works best with a smaller, acoustic line-up at a gentle volume. A later set for dancing needs more weight, so a quartet or quintet with drums and horns makes more sense. Some events book one act to cover both.

Expect to pay from around £500 for a duo up to £2,500 or more for a larger band. Line-up size matters most, then the length of the performance and the time of year, with busy Saturdays and the Christmas season at the top end. Every quote includes travel, so there are no extra costs added later.

Every act's page has video and audio of the musicians who would actually play, along with their repertoire and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.
