Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 18, 2016•From Utica, NY
I can't recommend these guys enough. We hired them for our wedding, and while we were adrift in the sea of wedding-related craziness, all our interactions with Nick and Betina were like little islands of calm, happy, good vibes. They put together a custom set list that was PERFECT, learned some special requests, & got our giant family dancing like crazy. We found and fell in love with them based on their videos, but they are really EVEN BETTER in person. There's no way to capture their talent or infectious positive energy in a review, so I won't try—but I will say that if you are on the fence about booking them, just do it! It will be the best decision you ever made.
Corporate Function•Reviewed on January 26, 2015•From Brooklyn, NY
I worked with Nick setting up the event and he was great! He was very flexible, professional, and communicated with me on a regular basis. The night of the event the band arrived on time, were friendly, professional and sounded great! They even sent us an extra musician! They read the mood, played appropriate music and were considerate of the volume. They were flexible with the schedule and unexpected changes that occurred. We had Betina and her brother swing dance for an hour and teach us a few moves. It was a bit difficult to get people to participate but they didn't get discouraged and eventually got people to dance! They really are a fantastic group! Thank you!
New Year's Eve Party•Reviewed on January 21, 2017•From New York City, NY
Nick Russo and the Hot Jazz Jumpers are amazing. They're always professional, courteous, responsive to your requests and needs, talented, and know just how to set the right mood for the crowd. We've hired them for the last 2 year's NYE celebrations and intend to bring them back again for a third time.

We all had a blast and I would recommend them to any and everyone. Thank you so much guys.

Wedding•Reviewed on August 24, 2019•From Claryville, NY
This is a mind-blowingly good band. I cannot believe how lucky we were to get these guys for our wedding in upstate New York. Our guests were blown away, and have continued to praise them after the event. We only stopped dancing to occasionally just stare and listen. These are real deal professional musicians. They were super professional, maintaining smooth communication in the lead up to the event. They were well-dressed, arrived early, and met all the terms of their contract. They also accommodated 2 special requests for us to play/sing with them, which made our reception really special. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you for making our big day so special!
