Rosie Friedland Jazz Band Jazz Band from Los Angeles, CA

Rosie is a Los Angeles-based vocalist who sings jazz, songs of the big band era, pop, rock, and more. She performs with piano, quartets, octets, and 17-piece bands in the L.A. area. She provides a high level of musicianship from all band members, reliable communication, and will work with you to meet specific needs or requests you might have for any event. She can also provide AV equipment rental and management for events (e.g., speakers and microphones for wedding speeches) as well as event planning and project management for your events! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A little more about us: We know that no two events are the same, and we pride ourselves on the ability to provide you with just the right music experience tailored to your needs. Before the event, I will have an intake call with you where we discuss length of the show, size of the group, style of music, even attire that you would like us to wear if there is a theme. We bring all of our gear, including sound setup, arriving right when you need us (typically at least an hour before the event starts). Depending on the size of the group you hire, we'll take up either a small area of space (smallest option is singer + pianist) up to a 17-piece band, which would need chairs provided. We start playing right on time and take short breaks between sets, if there is more than one set. I'll agree with you on the length of breaks beforehand. If you're looking for patter, chatting and audience participation between songs, we can provide that, or if you'd rather that we just get to playing, we can keep our comments short and sweet. Either way, we'll be serving an upbeat, lively set of music in the style/era that you are looking for! All of the musicians I work with pride themselves on their skill and talent, and we put on a quality show. When the event is over, we break down our gear and get out of your hair as quickly as possible!
