Private Party•Reviewed on November 30, 2018•From Hollywood, CA
Jazz Fondue is great! They were super professional and responsive leading up to our event, working on playlists and finalizing logistics so that the evening went without a hitch. Everyone showed up on time and they were a crowd pleaser. Would definitely use them again.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on August 21, 2015•From Santa Monica, CA
I hired Jazz Fondue to play a daytime corporate party and they were a hit! In the months leading up to the event, Jen maintained regular contact and always responded to emails professionally and quickly. Though we didn’t require much customization in terms of our song list, the band was extremely accommodating and perfectly reflected the “tiki” vibe we were going for. At an event buzzing with conversation and activity, Jazz Fondue provided a perfectly balanced ambiance without overpowering conversations or fading into the background. I received numerous compliments and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again in the future!
