Jazz Combo

Jazz Combo

 

The Jazz Combo is a versatile group of musicians who perform jazz standards to contemporary pop arrangements. They have performed throughout the Midwestern United States for military functions, public concerts, and school clinics. One concert goer said, Just saw this group of amazing musicians… They played such a variety of music and the vocalist was truly amazing too! Thanks for a great night of music, absolutely LOVED it!

 

For Performance, the Jazz Combo requires:
