The Ben Playford trio are a vocal led piano ensemble that specialises in playing well-known tunes from the jazz and blues repertoire. They play everything from ballads to bossa's, blues to up-tempo swing numbers. They provide a perfect backdrop to a civilised meal or wedding reception drinks but can also get people on to the dancefloor for evening entertainment. They can also offer play as a duo if your event requires a quieter atmosphere.
Hiring Ben playford trio for this event was perfect for the setting. All guests have commented how wonderful they were. I would highly recommend
Thanks once again.
What a joy! So glad I have chosen Ben Playford for our special evening. Totally love the music and Ben went out his way to make my wish come true. Thank you! I shall definitely book you guys again.
Sing and dance along to well known tunes played tastefully by this trio of excellent musicians.
Prices are kept low owing to the small bandsize and Ben doubling up on keys and vocals.
