The Go Lightly Jazz Band
Just recently, Modern Music had the opportunity play at a wedding where The Golightly Jazz Band was presenting cocktail music to the guests. This young and vibrant group of talented individuals lead by bandleader and double bassist Hollie Stevenett were amazing. The sound was crisp and clean with a great variety of tempo changes to keep its audience captivated. The band is comprised of a collection of professional jazz musicians who perform at weddings, corporate events, gallery openings or other functions in and around the GTA. Moreover, The Golightly Jazz Band is designed to be flexible and dependingon your needs, can perform as a duet, a trio, a quartet, a quintet, or more! Song requests can be given to Hollie in advance, and if not available on the band’s current playlist, every effort will be made to learn the songs note for note. Adding the Golightly Jazz Band to your event will only make the evening a bigger success. Furthermore,their addition will gradually bring the energy level up to a point that can be easily blended into the dance portion of the reception. For more detailed information and an opportunity to experience their brilliance, please visit the website at www.thegolightlyjazzband.com.
Thanks for being with us every step of the way. Your advice throughout the planning process and attention to detail was incredible. Everybody… absolutely EVERBODY loved disc jockey Grant Gibbons; he knew how to make every single person attending the reception happy. Moreover, he played the requests immediately and even danced with us occasionally. In summary, we were more than satisfied with Modern Music and had a memorable time. We will recommend your services every time the opportunity arises.
