Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 19, 2025•From San Jose, CA
They truly made the night unforgettable! From the moment they started playing, the energy in the room shifted—smooth, soulful, and effortlessly cool. Their musicianship was outstanding, blending jazz favorites with modern twists that had everyone tapping their feet. Not only were they incredibly talented, but they were also professional, punctual, and a joy to work with. They read the crowd perfectly, adjusting the mood to keep the party lively and engaging. Our guests raved about the music, saying it was a highlight of the night. If you’re looking for a jazz band that will elevate your event, I highly recommend Bay Area Jazz & Soul.

We have had Bay Area Jazz & Soul play at our large Xmas party 4 years in a row, and they are incredible! I get tons of compliments from guests every year on how great the band is and how they make the party. One friend even hired them to play her wedding after seeing them at our party! I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

Suenos is one of our favorite local bands here in San Francisco. We loved having them perform for our wedding cocktail hour. Noah was so professional, flexible, and a pleasure to work with. They truly set the tone for a fun evening. Our guests were blown away by their performance and all loved listening to their music--these guys are SO talented! Hire Suenos! They are so incredible. Thank you Noah and the rest of the band for making our wedding day so memorable. Love to y'all!

Suenos Jazz & Soul was hands down one of the best Jazz Bands that we've had perform at our events! From the booking stage, pre-planning and on-site they were amazing. Very easy to work with, professional, and extremely talented and they set the right environment for the corporate event Welcome Reception & Dinner. I highly recommend them and look forward to having them again at future events!

Sueños Jazz & Soul graced my mother’s celebration of life with an impeccable musical performance that transcended the ordinary. Each note resonated deeply, providing solace and evoking cherished memories. Their fusion of jazz and soul was both heartfelt and uplifting, creating an ambience of reflection, appreciation, and shared love. The band’s impeccable timing, combined with their emotional depth, brought together everyone in attendance, encapsulating the essence of my mother’s spirit. Their professionalism and genuine passion shone through, making it a day we’ll cherish forever. Highly recommended for any significant event.

They played the top floor of our 500 person company party and everyone glowed about Suenos Jazz' performance. They were absolutely the highlight. While it's nice to have a DJ pump tunes on the main dancefloor, it was such a treat to see people really enjoy the option of a more intimate space with live music, especially when it's REALLY good jazz. Noah and his band were punctual and very pleasant to work with. Would book them again without hesitation.

This group of guys is nothing short of amazing. Quick and responsive when gathering all the logistics before the performance and working with our site vendor. Noah was truly a gem to work with. The performance blew everyone away! Our attendees raved on and on about the band, playing a wide variety of hits and songs that keep the mood lively and everyone entertained. We are so pleased we picked this awesome band, and if you want your event to be the talk of the town, you should pick them. The venue was the nostalgic Rainbow Room of the Rockerfella Center and between the beautiful space and the band, they might have stolen the show! Amazing Band!

If you are looking for stellar Jazz Trio to provide quality music and a classy ambiance, look no further! Noah and his musicians were awesome! We were searching for a local musician to play our piano for a small holiday party, and was recommended Suenos Jazz. So glad we expanded to a Trio! The guests loved it, and keep commenting all night (and taking videos). They play really well together, and are able to adapt to requests or adjust to meet the mood (sound volume) on the fly
Noah was very responsive and answered all my questions thoroughly. They showed up on time to set up, excited to play, grateful to be there, and friendly to our guests. Overall a class act

We’ve had Noah and the trio version of the Suenos Jazz Quartet at our holiday party for the last two years. They are able to perform a variety of music, from jazz to pop covers. Our guests (ranging for 20-somethings to 40-somethings) all love the band, and they are one of the biggest highlights of the event, especially the singer! Her voice is truly amazing.

Suenos Jazz was absolutely amazing and perfect for what we needed. I reached out to them and had great consistent communication with Noah which made things very convenient and smooth. We had to change plans multiple times and they worked with us on everything. They arrived early and we're set up on time to play as guests arrived. They were professional, courteous, communicative, and very talented. All our guests loved them and remarked all night how great they sounded and how much their presence added to the party. 10/10, 5 Stars, would not have changed a thing!

The band played at my birthday gathering at a small venue in SF. Everyone raved about the music, and the duo made the night so lively and fun. They also were great at playing at a volume that still allowed for conversation and mingling even in a smaller space. They even did an impromptu happy birthday for us which will be a very memorable moment. Noah was incredibly prompt in communicating prior to the event, and really professional the day-of. These guys are truly class acts and incredibly talented musicians. Thank you!

Noah and the band were absolutely a wonder to work with. From the first day I contacted the band to the date of the event, he was exceptionally communicative. I had an issue with finding a venue for a quite some time but Noah was extremely patient and accommodating. He was able to work with our last minute changes which I am so grateful for!
The quartet itself was simply phenomenal and their performance was perfect. You can tell all members really have a passion for what they do and its clear they have chemistry which is critical in jazz. If you're looking for an ensemble for any size event, Bay Area Jazz & Soul can make it happen!

Wedding•Reviewed on May 7, 2023•From Tiburon, CA
We had a very small wedding in a very small venue. Suenos Jazz Band provided a trio of trumpet, bass, and keyboards. Their music was perfect for the occasion, providing a lovely background for both the ceremony and our dining. Furthermore, they are all excellent musicians, and their music choices were tasteful and got people swaying in their seats as they ate. Noah Frank, the trumpet player, he’s also the head of the band, and he was a pleasure to deal with. The band really made the wedding special.

I hired Suenos to play during the cocktail hour on the deck at the UC Berkeley Faculty Club at my daughter's wedding as well as having their guitarist play at the ceremony beforehand in the UC Botanical Garden. They were absolutely incredible. Such fine musicians. Noah is so great to work with. All the guests couldn't stop talking about how wonderful they were. I could not recommend them more highly.

Suenos Jazz was a wonderful addition to our Member Holiday Party at Moraga Country Club! We had an euphoric experience with them while their music brought in the holiday spirit! Our members had great feedback about this band, stating that this was the best party they have been to in several years! We loved how personable they were and willing to play holiday music at our Member Holiday Party. Moraga Country Club is definitely going to have them play at more of our events this coming year and highly recommend them! Thank you so much Suenos Jazz!!

We hired the Sueños Jazz Trio to perform at our organization's 60th anniversary gala, and they were terrific. They showed up on time for the sound check, and they played during the cocktail hour of our gala. The attendees told me they really enjoyed hearing them play. They added a really nice ambiance to our event, playing on the outdoor terrace while people mingled and listened to their music. I would hire them again, and highly recommend them.

So happy we booked Suenos for our daughter's wedding! This band is so talented. We hired Suenos for cocktail hour, and to play as guests arrived. We received many compliments during the entire night on their music. One of our guests is a professional musician himself, and he raved about the quality of the band we had chosen.
In addition, I should mention our daughter's wedding was originally scheduled for April 2020 and was postponed due to covid and rescheduled several times. During all those 16 months, Noah kept in contact and made sure to reschedule as the dates kept changing. Great client relations and great sound! Highly recommend Suenos!!

This is the second time they join us here and we will book them again in October.
People love them!

Sueños Jazz was truly amazing! We're so happy we had them play at our wedding, they helped made our evening on the yacht so magical! They played the songs we requested, and played the type of jazz we requested. The transitions were also on point throughout the event and oh so smooth. We would highly recommend the band for any event, small or big!

Suenos came to play at the cocktail hour for our wedding. They were super accommodating and flexible, were quick to text/call back, and worked with us to create the sound/atmosphere we wanted. Nearly every guest I mingled with said they loved Noah and his quartet (one guest said "this is the classiest thing I've seen in years")! Seriously cannot give these guys enough props!!!
