The Soirée Band began as a trio consisting of piano, bass, and drums, assembled to record a jazz
CD, with the help of some friends.

With the addition of guitar, horns, and a wonderful singer, Trudy Holler, we have the personnel to perform
a wide range of material suitable for club performances, concerts, or private functions.

Our full ensemble includes four horns, two vocalists, guitar, bass, piano and drums, but we can tailor
the band for your specific needs.

Visit our sample tunes page which will illustrate our versatility and willingness to play all styles.
Let us be the special ingredient for your next Soiree.
