Testimonials
"Thanks again for Saturday night, the band were fantastic!! Not what everyone expects for an 18th. You did great and Ellie enjoyed every second! Danny Whitworth, Father – Ellie’s 18th, Lancashire November 2019 "A note to say thank you for your hard work and dedication on making our wedding day so special. Feedback was that the music was “absolutely terrific” across the board and we ourselves thought it outstanding and exactly how we wanted it. Wishing you all the best for the summer ahead and many thanks again! Rose & James Dashwood – Wedding, Suffolk August 2019 "Dr Jazz arrived at our wedding in good time and set up their stage area and equipment with no fuss. Looking keen and smart with their authentic outfits and array of instruments. Already I was impressed with the professionalism and appearance of the band, but little did I know just what I had booked for the evening. Matthew Hardy’s outfit, Dr Jazz, simply surpassed all our expectations. Never had I guessed we would receive such a wonderful, exciting, dynamic but most of all musically awesome series of sets. The accuracy and quality of the performances were second to none. Studio quality sound and execution, professionally managed without a hint of fuss or issue. The musicianship of the ensemble was outstanding. The set list was varied and of a consistently high standard. The arrangements were just perfect and the solos were fantastic. Matthew himself leads the band with confidence and skill. His stage presence tasteful and engaging. The clips available of the band are wonderful but even they cannot capture just how tight and well executed the ensemble’s live performance is. I cannot recommend this band highly enough to anyone considering them. They set an atmosphere at our wedding that was everything we had hoped and more, carrying the mood and wonderful day’s atmosphere from dinner into the evening. They are worth every dime. 10/10 would definitely book again. John & Katie Robinson – Wedding, Argyll July 2019 "On behalf of both of us and of all the guests, thank you so much for making the day the delightful, joyous and musical one that is was. Everyone has told us how much they enjoyed dancing to and hearing Dr Jazz and has praised the quality of the music and musicians in the highest terms. We’re so glad that you were on board on Thursday and look forward to encountering you again in the future. Thanks once again! Sarah & Nico’s Wedding – Red Lion Hotel, Burnsall June 2019 "An ultra-professional show of classic tunes that went down a storm with the audience that gathered to watch! Sean Durney, Stage Manager – River Festival, Liverpool June 2019 "I feel compelled to write a quick note following your amazing work on Saturday. I’ve loved the full gamut of music you guys play since I was introduced to it in my early 20s. That music has become hugely important to me ever since. You played so beautifully, set the tone wonderfully and I know worked with the coordinator to play outside during the reception. It was more perfect than we could have imagined. Thank you all so much.” Jenny & Gabriel Heley – Wedding – Heatherden Hall, Pinewood Studios March 2019 "Dr Jazz were fantastic. We LOVED having you all to play for us on Saturday. It was so wonderful having you playing as we arrived in the car after the ceremony. You were brilliant and really made the reception go with a swing. Thank you so much." Katie Meadows & Lucy Liddell - Bride & Mother of bride - Hexham August 2018 "Matthew, thank you and your team for making our day very special. You guys were ace and special thanks for playing one of our favourite songs - you did a great job. We'll be definitely looking out for you in the future!" Obed Samuel - Wedding - York April 2018 "I just wanted to say a massive thank you. You were all amazing last night! You absolutely made my party and I'm so grateful!! I had so many people comment on how awesome you were! Many thanks again for making my 40th fabulous and unforgettable." Josie Long - 40th Birthday Party - Cheltenham March 2018 "Many thanks, I've had a lot of comments appreciating your band a lot, saying it couldn’t have been better, so that was very nice." Becky Ward - Mother of the groom - Brandsby Hall, North Yorkshire September 2017 "I just wanted to thank you and the band for playing at York Races last Wednesday for the opening day of the Ebor meeting. The band were brilliant and certainly kept the racegoers entertained, which is just what we wanted!" Sophia Monkman - Operations Executive - York Racecourse August 2017 "Well, where can I start! From initially stumbling upon Dr Jazz and realising that there was something rather special about their approach and unique sound, to the very first email and phone calls to discuss our plans for the day, all the way through to our Wedding day itself - Dr Jazz and company were brilliant. Helpful, friendly, and wonderfully entertaining, we could not have asked for anything more. The set itself was fantastic - we were blown away with how much of an impact they made, not only in terms of everyone feeling the urge to get up to dance (which was a slight worry for us before the day!), but also with their spot on interaction with the guests, and overall management and ownership of the evening. We really knew we'd made the right decision as soon as the first note was played – talk about creating a spectacle!! In terms of a front man Matthew is absolutely superb, and his supporting crew of brilliantly talented musicians helped make our day one to remember for both us and our guests. Thank you all so very much for everything. We know what it's like trying to find the 'right band', ourselves having trawled through many hundreds of sample tracks from other people and groups, and the worries that come with it regarding whether people will like it, whether it'll be well received etc. The best advice I can honestly give is that if you are sitting there reading this review, and you have enjoyed the sample tracks you've listened to, then please don't hesitate to book these guys. You will not regret it, and you and your guests will certainly never forget it. They were nothing short of marvellous. Once again we wanted to say thank you very much for everything - we really had a fantastic time, as did everyone else in attendance, and it is all thanks to you and your crew. You certainly made the evening, if not the day for us, and we are so pleased and lucky to have been able to book you to play for us. You were nothing short of brilliant, and we can't stop talking or thinking about how amazing you were (and nor can anyone else!) It was so lovely to meet you all in person. All the best for the future, and please rest assured that we'll be singing your praises for the years to come!" James & Sylvia - Wedding - Northampton August 2017 "Thank you for playing for us last night - we loved the music you played and felt it really set our night off perfectly! Everyone has been saying how brilliant the band was last night and the photos today show that people really had a great time!! Your outfits were also perfectly fitting with our Roaring 20s theme and we literally couldn't have asked for more! Thank you so much once again and we would not hesitate to book you for events in the future!" Amber & Thomas - Engagement Party - Newcastle August 2017 "Thank you all so much for such a fantastic night and for all your hard work. The band sounded amazing and helped make the night so magical. You've had a lot of compliments from guests and non-wedding guests alike; the hotel staff certainly loved it. You made our day so special." Jack & Charlotte - Wedding - Middleton's Hotel, York July 2017 "Thank you so much to you and the band, you were amazing! We had a fantastic time, as did our guests (in the end the 16ft dance floor didn't quite seem big enough!!!) The music was brilliant and exceeded our expectations and we'll definitely recommend Dr Jazz in future. Thanks again to you and the team for helping to make our reception such a brilliant and memorable occasion!!" Rachel & Seth - Wedding - Wortley Hall, Sheffield July 2017 "A proper thumbs up! You guys were wonderful. Everybody keeps saying what brilliant music you played. Thank you so much." Sally & Tom - Wedding - Old Swan Hotel, Harrogate April 2017 "Just wanted to drop you a quick email to say thank you for Friday night. You were absolutely amazing, and better than we imagined. The staff have all said how brilliant you were. Thank you for being part of our Works party. We really enjoyed having you there and the music you played was just what we wanted and hoped for. We are all still talking about the night and I have party blues. Wish it hadn’t happened yet so I could do it all again. Your details will definitely come in use for future events I’m sure." Melissa Thawley - Off Limits Events - Radisson Blu, East Midlands Airport January 2017 "Many thanks for the band's performances this month and last – you really were brilliant and we have had such positive feedback so thank you!" Sophia Monkman - Operations Executive - York Racecourse July & August 2016 "Matthew, thank you ever so much! Dr Jazz were exactly what we wanted but exceeded our expectations spectacularly! You've had so many compliments from guests." Anna & Adam Paxman - Wedding - Ullet Road Unitarian Church, Liverpool August 2016 "Thank you so much. Dr Jazz was fantastic and so many people have contacted us to say how much they enjoyed the music. We all had a fantastic time!! Thank you for your good wishes. We are just at the airport waiting for our flight to Sorrento!!" Clare & Paul Metcalf - Wedding - The Bridge Centre, Stoke-on-Trent July 2016 "Thank you so much. EVERYONE has said how amazing you were. Pass on our HUGE thanks to the lads." Jill & Pete Spence - Wedding - Stanley House Hotel, Blackburn June 2016 "Doesn't time fly by! Two weeks today since we got married and you came along to keep us entertained. It was an amazing day and you and your band contributed immensely. From the moment I contacted you I knew we had made the right choice. Your communication and understanding was excellent. Our 1930s theme fit right in with the venue and your style of music. We received lots of comments from our guests about how lovely it was to sit on the lawn drinking Pimms listening to you play whilst we were off having photos taken. It was so relaxing and elegant. Like being on a film set, one guest said. I think what made it for me was when all the guests had gone inside to sit down for the meal and we were passing some hotel guests sitting on the terrace enjoying the sun. As I walked passed one gentleman starting clapping and commented how beautiful I looked and thanked me for providing such wonderful music that he had enjoyed listening to; a real unexpected pleasure. In fact the venue told me the following day that quite a few hotel guests had commented on the great music. The evening was astounding. In the DJ sets you provided between Dr Jazz's live sessions you managed to fit in all our guests' special songs. This made it a lot more personal. And thank you so much for rearranging one of your songs to fit in with the routine we had learned for our first dance. This just shows how versatile and amenable you are. We would like to thank you for coming and making our wedding day most enjoyable, not just for us but for our guests. I have already been recommending you and will continue to do so." Janet Foran - Bride - Ashdown Park, West Sussex May 2016 "We had a splendid night and many of our guests commented that your band was one of their favourite parts of the day. Thank you for contributing to our successful event." Ashley Lau - Grainger plc Christmas Party - Queen's Hotel, Leeds December 2015 "The band was great on Saturday evening. The performance created a nice, lively atmosphere for the event and all the guests obviously enjoyed it!" Matthew Clark - on behalf of Wollaton Hall, Nottingham October 2015 "I would very much like to thank you all for my amazing party on Saturday night. I was in a daze for most of it so apologies if I didn’t take the time to say thank you to everyone. The band were incredible. We really enjoyed the music. It is so good to hear real instruments and you got all of us up dancing, even me, and my feet still hurt." Julie Kennedy - 50th birthday party - Wollaton Hall, Nottingham October 2015 "I /we would be very happy to recommend you and your band - the evening was a great success - everybody thoroughly enjoyed your music - Thank You!" Vicky Boyle - Walters Wealth Management - Sun Pavilion, Harrogate October 2015 "It was an absolute pleasure. We had fantastic feed back from all of our dancers who said they would love to see you all again. Thank you again." Jo & Leighton - Professional Dancers - 20s/30s Dance - Skipton October 2015 "Thank you for the most wonderful evening of music and entertainment on Saturday. Dr Jazz were EXACTLY what we were after and we have thoroughly enjoyed listening to your cd too! You were highly praised by our guests too and we shall certainly recommend you (and hopefully book you again ourselves!)" Carolyn & Glenn Crocker - Silver Wedding Anniversary - Melbourne, Derbyshire September 2015 "All I can say is WOW! Everyone loved the band! The night couldn't have gone better! So a massive thank you, to yourself and your team!" Rose Mather - 30th Birthday Party - Loughborough Town Hall September 2015 "Many thanks for coming to Thirsk this year, you have been brilliant and we have received such positive feedback from our racegoers." (Dr Jazz performed at Thirsk Races in May, June and August in 2015) Sophia Monkman - Sales & Marketing Manager, Thirsk Racecourse September 2015 "Thank you for Saturday night, it was amazing! Everyone loved Dr Jazz and it was a great way to welcome guests. The music was brilliant, along with the service you have provided throughout. We would definitely recommend you and it helped make the night so special." Claire & Marc - Wedding - Holiday Inn, Barnsley August 2015 "Thank you so much for an amazing musical display; you and your Great Gatsby band were the icing on the cake! Everyone loved you and thought you were fantastic. Mark and I and the kids want to thank you all for the wonderful music and atmosphere you created on the night. The event would not have been the same without you. Just made the party start with a bang and we could not have been happier. I can't thank you enough and would highly recommend you. You were all brilliant." Liz Rothera - Family Celebrations - Wadenhoe House, Oundle June 2015 "We had an incredible day! I am sure we will see you soon as a friend in the village has already asked for your details!! Many thanks." Bronya Heaver - Wedding - Coleby, Lincolnshire May 2015 "We all had a fantastic time on Saturday, it was a very special night for my sister. Everyone thought that the Roaring 20s band was splendid, thank you for a super evening of professional entertainment which was thoroughly enjoyed & appreciated by one & all, we are all still recovering!! Thanks very much again & all the best."....and then this, sent to the agency..."Dr Jazz gave a truly tremendous performance; a fantastic band who captivated us all for what was a most splendid and memorable occasion. I would have no hesitation in recommending such a professional & inspiring band." Louise Cunden - 50th Birthday Party - Willerby Manor, Hull March 2015 "Thank you so much for entertaining us.

You really helped to make our day a special one and we will definitely be recommending you to people in future." Laura & Richard - Wedding - The Hawkhills, Easingwold August 2014 "Great work for Saturday! Everyone loved it and hope we can do more in future..." Darren Royston - Nonsuch Dance Company - Majestic Hotel, Harrogate July 2014 "Thank you all so much for your amazing performance on Saturday evening, which was everything I could have hoped for! Your music was brilliant, got everyone up dancing and I can’t tell you how many people told me afterwards 'how brilliant the 1920s band were’. As soon as you played your first song I knew we’d struck gold! It couldn’t have been more perfect given the whole Gatsby theme and everyone so dressed up, so thank you all so much. You may be interested to know that we raised an astonishing £7,000 on the night! With just 96 people in the room…amazing! Thanks again Matthew and I'll not hesitate to recommend you if anyone should ask me for a fabulous 20’s Jazz Band!"

Thanks again to you and the team for helping to make our reception such a brilliant and memorable occasion!!" Rachel & Seth - Wedding - Wortley Hall, Sheffield July 2017 "A proper thumbs up! You guys were wonderful. Everybody keeps saying what brilliant music you played. Thank you so much." Sally & Tom - Wedding - Old Swan Hotel, Harrogate April 2017 "Just wanted to drop you a quick email to say thank you for Friday night. You were absolutely amazing, and better than we imagined. The staff have all said how brilliant you were. Thank you for being part of our Works party. We really enjoyed having you there and the music you played was just what we wanted and hoped for. We are all still talking about the night and I have party blues. Wish it hadn’t happened yet so I could do it all again. Your details will definitely come in use for future events I’m sure." Melissa Thawley - Off Limits Events - Radisson Blu, East Midlands Airport January 2017 "Many thanks for the band's performances this month and last – you really were brilliant and we have had such positive feedback so thank you!" Sophia Monkman - Operations Executive - York Racecourse July & August 2016 "Matthew, thank you ever so much! Dr Jazz were exactly what we wanted but exceeded our expectations spectacularly! You've had so many compliments from guests." Anna & Adam Paxman - Wedding - Ullet Road Unitarian Church, Liverpool August 2016 "Thank you so much. Dr Jazz was fantastic and so many people have contacted us to say how much they enjoyed the music. We all had a fantastic time!! Thank you for your good wishes. We are just at the airport waiting for our flight to Sorrento!!" Clare & Paul Metcalf - Wedding - The Bridge Centre, Stoke-on-Trent July 2016 "Thank you so much. EVERYONE has said how amazing you were. Pass on our HUGE thanks to the lads." Jill & Pete Spence - Wedding - Stanley House Hotel, Blackburn June 2016 "Doesn't time fly by! Two weeks today since we got married and you came along to keep us entertained. It was an amazing day and you and your band contributed immensely. From the moment I contacted you I knew we had made the right choice. Your communication and understanding was excellent. Our 1930s theme fit right in with the venue and your style of music. We received lots of comments from our guests about how lovely it was to sit on the lawn drinking Pimms listening to you play whilst we were off having photos taken. It was so relaxing and elegant. Like being on a film set, one guest said. I think what made it for me was when all the guests had gone inside to sit down for the meal and we were passing some hotel guests sitting on the terrace enjoying the sun. As I walked passed one gentleman starting clapping and commented how beautiful I looked and thanked me for providing such wonderful music that he had enjoyed listening to; a real unexpected pleasure. In fact the venue told me the following day that quite a few hotel guests had commented on the great music. The evening was astounding. In the DJ sets you provided between Dr Jazz's live sessions you managed to fit in all our guests' special songs. This made it a lot more personal. And thank you so much for rearranging one of your songs to fit in with the routine we had learned for our first dance. This just shows how versatile and amenable you are. We would like to thank you for coming and making our wedding day most enjoyable, not just for us but for our guests. I have already been recommending you and will continue to do so." Janet Foran - Bride - Ashdown Park, West Sussex May 2016 "We had a splendid night and many of our guests commented that your band was one of their favourite parts of the day. Thank you for contributing to our successful event." Ashley Lau - Grainger plc Christmas Party - Queen's Hotel, Leeds December 2015 "The band was great on Saturday evening. The performance created a nice, lively atmosphere for the event and all the guests obviously enjoyed it!" Matthew Clark - on behalf of Wollaton Hall, Nottingham October 2015 "I would very much like to thank you all for my amazing party on Saturday night. I was in a daze for most of it so apologies if I didn’t take the time to say thank you to everyone. The band were incredible. We really enjoyed the music. It is so good to hear real instruments and you got all of us up dancing, even me, and my feet still hurt." Julie Kennedy - 50th birthday party - Wollaton Hall, Nottingham October 2015 "I /we would be very happy to recommend you and your band - the evening was a great success - everybody thoroughly enjoyed your music - Thank You!"

Claire & Marc - Wedding - Holiday Inn, Barnsley August 2015 "Thank you so much for an amazing musical display; you and your Great Gatsby band were the icing on the cake! Everyone loved you and thought you were fantastic. Mark and I and the kids want to thank you all for the wonderful music and atmosphere you created on the night. The event would not have been the same without you. Just made the party start with a bang and we could not have been happier. I can't thank you enough and would highly recommend you. You were all brilliant." Liz Rothera - Family Celebrations - Wadenhoe House, Oundle June 2015 "We had an incredible day! I am sure we will see you soon as a friend in the village has already asked for your details!! Many thanks." Bronya Heaver - Wedding - Coleby, Lincolnshire May 2015 "We all had a fantastic time on Saturday, it was a very special night for my sister.

Laura & Richard - Wedding - The Hawkhills, Easingwold August 2014 "Great work for Saturday! Everyone loved it and hope we can do more in future..." Darren Royston - Nonsuch Dance Company - Majestic Hotel, Harrogate July 2014 "Thank you all so much for your amazing performance on Saturday evening, which was everything I could have hoped for! Your music was brilliant, got everyone up dancing and I can’t tell you how many people told me afterwards 'how brilliant the 1920s band were’. As soon as you played your first song I knew we’d struck gold! It couldn’t have been more perfect given the whole Gatsby theme and everyone so dressed up, so thank you all so much. You may be interested to know that we raised an astonishing £7,000 on the night! With just 96 people in the room…amazing! Thanks again Matthew and I'll not hesitate to recommend you if anyone should ask me for a fabulous 20’s Jazz Band!"

Thank you for being part of our Works party. We really enjoyed having you there and the music you played was just what we wanted and hoped for. We are all still talking about the night and I have party blues. Wish it hadn’t happened yet so I could do it all again. Your details will definitely come in use for future events I’m sure.

James & Sylvia - Wedding - Northampton

Well, where can I start! From initially stumbling upon Dr Jazz and realising that there was something rather special about their approach and unique sound, to the very first email and phone calls to discuss our plans for the day, all the way through to our Wedding day itself - Dr Jazz and company were brilliant. Helpful, friendly, and wonderfully entertaining, we could not have asked for anything more. The set itself was fantastic - we were blown away with how much of an impact they made, not only in terms of everyone feeling the urge to get up to dance (which was a slight worry for us before the day!), but also with their spot on interaction with the guests, and overall management and ownership of the evening. We really knew we'd made the right decision as soon as the first note was played – talk about creating a spectacle!! In terms of a front man Matthew is absolutely superb, and his supporting crew of brilliantly talented musicians helped make our day one to remember for both us and our guests. Thank you all so very much for everything. We know what it's like trying to find the 'right band', ourselves having trawled through many hundreds of sample tracks from other people and groups, and the worries that come with it regarding whether people will like it, whether it'll be well received etc. The best advice I can honestly give is that if you are sitting there reading this review, and you have enjoyed the sample tracks you've listened to, then please don't hesitate to book these guys. You will not regret it, and you and your guests will certainly never forget it. They were nothing short of marvellous. Once again we wanted to say thank you very much for everything - we really had a fantastic time, as did everyone else in attendance, and it is all thanks to you and your crew. You certainly made the evening, if not the day for us, and we are so pleased and lucky to have been able to book you to play for us. You were nothing short of brilliant, and we can't stop talking or thinking about how amazing you were (and nor can anyone else!) It was so lovely to meet you all in person. All the best for the future, and please rest assured that we'll be singing your praises for the years to come!
