"When my brothers and I gave our parents their 50th wedding anniversary party at the Pond House Cafe in Elizabeth Park in West Hartford, CT, we had the Espresso Jazz Trio perform. Not only did they fill the air with sounds of sweet music, they performed two songs that my parents had written years ago. They did an awesome job! Their sound was warm and inviting with personalities to match. Thank you Espresso Jazz for making this wondrous occasion an evening of beautiful music." Karen Tobias Stanford, Farmington, CT (Anniversary Party)

 "I found Espresso Jazz through their web site, and after listening to some of their songs, I knew they would be perfect for our Knight of Wines fundraiser. But no recording could even come close to accurately representing how great Espresso Jazz is in a live performance! Their energy, professionalism, expertise, obvious enjoyment for the music they play and, most importantly, their wonderful sound, made the evening an occasion beyond anyone's expectations. Plus, they required very little set-up and guidance throughout the night--an absolute must for an event manager!" Sara Murphy, Special Events Manager, Higgins Armory Museum, Worcester, MA   (Jazz Wine Event)

"It's refreshing to find musicians as concerned with our guests as they are with their music. Not only have you found new fans at The Charlemont Inn, your fans have found the Charlemont Inn! From load in to load out your group is professional, courteous and fabulously talented. Thank you for the wonderful entertainment you bring to our restaurant. We are very pleased you will be returning for a regular Saturday night appearance!" Linda Shimandle, Innkeeper, Charlemont Inn, Charlemont, MA                                                                                                           

"Our recent fundraiser at the Lobster Pot was a huge success not only because of the great food but due to the incredible talent of Espresso Jazz. They played just the right music for the crowd, which spanned several generations, and had everyone up on the dance floor by the end of the night. Days later, people were still talking about the music at this event and asking when they'll be back in town!"  
Irene Rabinowitz, Helping Our Women, Provincetown, MA (Fund Raiser)  
 
"We enjoyed our last evening at Charlemont Inn very much! It was not only the wonderful jazz music that went right into our feeling - it was also the fantastic atmosphere which you brought into this historic house on the Mohawk Trail. Everything suited to the impressions we had during our four week trip to MA, so many friendly people and the feeling of being welcome. You were the "Highlight" of all! Hope to see and hear you again."
Hermann and Corinna, Germany

"What a pleasure Friday nights at Verdé were when Espresso Jazz played.
