Lee Brampton19 Sep 2021

Booked for Wedding

Very talented people. These guys were the first music act of our evening and helped to gently set the tone of our wedding reception perfectly. They happily took requests of some well known classics and finished with Thunderstruck just as we asked. Happy to recommend to anyone.

Cool Groove were excellent. The music was good and helped provide exactly the right atmosphere for what was an all round excellent evening. They are very talented, flexible and nothing was too much trouble for them. I found them to be very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend them. Thank you Monika to you and to your band.

Booked for Wedding

"What a fantastic performance they gave!!!! So happy! I know that the original singer from the video didn't end up being our vocalist which was a bit disappointing but this singer Ed, was really really fantastic so it was all good in the end. Thank you so very much for such a great performance! xxx! Courtney and George"

We play unashamed old-style music in a variety of genres but specialise in swing/jive material in the 1940s/50s style. Popular performers of it in its heyday included Louis Jordan, the King Cole Trio, and Slim Gaillard. Beyond that, we can cover everything from mellow background jazz to upbeat rock'n'roll that will have your guests up on their feet in no time. So anything from Ella to Elvis, Fats Waller to Fats Domino, or Benny Goodman to Ben E. King, and more besides!

About supplier

The quartet is a "light" version of the septet One Jump Ahead. Singer/saxophonist (and skilled jive dancer) Kit Packham has led the band since 1984. We play real music on real instruments and we love it!
