The Boston Based Russ Carlton Jazz Trio has over 75 years of playing experience collectively. Whether playing background or featured music, the Russ Carlton Trio will play at an acceptable volume, and in good taste. Lively selections will keep the mood of the party up-beat and fun. Fun party music!
What we call jazz can be a mixture of: American Songbook, Motown, Standards, Soft Rock Classic Hits and familiar Jazz selections. Two vocalists are featured in the group for those that want more of a rounded performance.
The Trio can be reduced to a duo consisting of: Piano/Sax/(Flute), or Piano/Bass. Piano/flute is very desirable for Wedding Ceremonies followed by Cocktail Periods. Additionally, the trio can be expanded to a Quartet by adding Drums. This is desirable should the client want dancing for their guests. Emcee duties are no problem for the trio as there are 2 members that can fulfill that need.
The group is personable, up-beat, and dresses appropriately.
All configurations can include vocals should you desire. Keyboard will be substituted for piano wherever necessary.
For a party to remember
The Russ Carlton Jazz Trio is available to play in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Southern Maine, and Rhode Island.
