Reviews from local events in Amalfi
“Bella Dixie are really amazing, they let all the guests dance to their music! Andrea (singer and trumpeter) has been very gentle and careful explaining to us all the steps before the event, organising the day perfectly. Thank you very much!”
“Sono stati bravissimi! Arrangiamenti davvero belli! Hanno esaudito le nostre richieste! Musica napoletana, Pino Daniele e grandi classici della musica italiana rivisitati in modo personale e coinvolgente! Li consigliamo!”
“I would just like to say a big thank you to The Naples Swing Band for making my wedding fantastic. They were everything they said they would be and were thoroughly enjoyed by both young and old. Fabio and the band were so fantastic and I hope you can pass on my regards!”
Booked The Naples Swing Band for a wedding at Villa Eva, Via Santissima Trinità, Ravello, Italy
“Perfect performance! Outstanding music and voice.”
“We had our wedding at the Belmond Hotel Caruso in Ravello and requested The Italian Jazz Trio play during our cocktail hour and meal. The music sounded beautiful! They played a great mix of old and new which went down brilliantly with the guests, a large number of which were singing along! We had so many compliments about the choice of music! Thank you for making our day so perfect.”
“Nella difficile scelta di un gruppo che potesse accompagnare il nostro matrimonio italo-spagnolo, siamo felicissimi di aver trovato i Naples Swing Band. Disponibili nell'accontentare le nostre richieste, si sono contraddistinti per la professionalità e la raffinatezza che cercavamo per un evento tanto importante. Le loro note hanno allietato tutti gli invitati (esperti musicisti e non), e hanno donato a noi la serenità di essere in ottime mani. Un ringraziamento al meraviglioso quintetto e un grazie speciale a Diana per la sua grazia e gentilezza oltre che per la melodica voce!”
“Abbiamo scelto i Naples Swing Band per il nostro matrimonio, con una formazione a 6 componenti (voce, batteria, piano, contrabbasso, sax e tromba). Abbiamo sempre pensato che fossero bravi, ma al nostro matrimonio sono riusciti a superare di gran lunga le nostre aspettative!”
“Wow! It is really hard to put into words how absolutely incredible Celeste and her pianist are! From personality to communication to professionalism. They both have a talent that is so adored! Myself (the bride) and the 30 people at my wedding in Positano were blown away by their performance. Celeste has the voice of an angel and I knew the moment I heard her in her video that I had to have her perform at my wedding. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making our special day that much more special! All of us want to fly you to the States to perform again!! Much love!! I would recommend them EVERY SINGLE TIME!”

Some FAQs About Hiring a Jazz Band for Your Wedding or Party...
What kind of music will the jazz band perform?
A particularly popular trend is for modern jazz bands to play pop or rock music but in a vintage and jazzy style. A swing band almost always includes a singer in the group. They will cover classic "Rat Pack" tunes (covering artists such as Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr).
Many of our bands also perform in the Great Gatsby style, specialising in music from the 1920s – often with a more modern twist too and sometimes even combined with electro-swing music. This style is frequently referred to as post-modern jukebox band style.
Gypsy jazz or gypsy swing (also known as jazz manouche) is also increasingly popular, as well as purely acoustic jazz bands. Trad and vintage jazz bands perform more Dixieland, ragtime music and New Orleans-inspired songs that originated in the early 1900s. These bands usually include a full brass or wind section, such as trumpet, trombone, and even sousaphone. These bands are often roaming jazz bands – and some can even perform as marching jazz bands.
Blues bands are also featured on FixTheMusic as an especially popular jazz ensemble.
What kind of events will the jazz bands perform at?
Can you give me some examples of the kind of repertoire and songs the jazz bands will perform?
Other famous jazz singers or bands that our jazz groups will cover include Nat King Cole, Charlie Parker, Cole Porter, Billie Holliday, Jamie Cullum, Miles Davis, Otis Redding, Bing Crosby, Dean Martin, George Gershwin, Michael Bublé and Nina Simone.
What line-ups are available with most jazz bands?
If you wanted a bigger line-up (e.g. a 6-piece or 7-piece jazz band), the additional instruments would likely include saxophone, trumpet, trombone or more singers.
Jazz duos and jazz trios are also frequently booked – especially for background music, e.g. at an outdoor garden party, drinks reception or even a wedding ceremony.
How long does the jazz band take to set up?
For instance, a jazz duo will set up faster than a full seven-piece band.
How long do jazz musicians play for?
If you're looking for additional or longer sets, you can discuss this with the band when making your booking.
Is it possible to see the jazz bands perform live before I book?
How much space will a jazz band take up?
How loud will the jazz band be?
Many of our jazz bands can perform without amplification (i.e. as just an acoustic jazz band) – but they are only really suitable as background music or where the number of guests at your event is relatively small. If you want the band to provide music for dancing (e.g. at your wedding reception), then you'll want the band to be amplified through their PA system.
Instruments such as the band's drum kit and horns like a trumpet, trombone or saxophone, could trigger a noise limiter at your venue. It's always best to speak with your jazz band about any noise limits at the time of booking.
Should I hire a jazz or swing band for my wedding?
Can the band play outside?
Do I need to provide equipment for a jazz band?
For larger venues and events, check with the band when booking, as more sound equipment or lighting may be needed to make your event sparkle, which can usually be arranged as an optional extra.
Is jazz popular?
As proof of popularity, the 2025 London Jazz Festival showcased over 300 performances to over 100,000 people!

What Kind of Events Do the Italy Jazz Bands Perform At?
All of our Italy jazz and swing bands are available for hire at weddings, corporate events, private parties, charity events and product launches throughout Italy.
For weddings, they often perform at the wedding reception in the evening, but are frequently booked to provide background music at the wedding cocktails or even the wedding ceremony. During this part of the day, they might provide instrumental music only (i.e. without their lead singer).
Where in Italy Will the Jazz Bands Perform?
Each jazz band in Italy is happy to travel all over the country for events. Most of our groups are based around Tuscany, Naples and Venice, but we can also provide jazz music for events in Bologna and other parts of northern Italy, Puglia in the south, Sicily, Rome, Marche, around Lake Garda and Lake Como, along the Amalfi Coast and almost all other parts of Italy.
What Kind of Music Do the Italian Jazz Bands Perform?
Our Italy jazz bands perform a wide mix of local and international jazz standards and swing songs. Popular requests include I’ve Got You Under My Skin, Oh Mamma, Voglio Anche Io Il Fidanzato and Tu Vo Fa' L'americano.
Some jazz bands can also perform a selection of pop covers – usually these are done in a slightly jazzy or swing style, in keeping with the feel and mood of the band.
How Much Does It Cost to Hire an Italy Jazz Band or Swing Band?
The average price of a jazz band in Italy is 2,600 EUR. This is for a quartet featuring vocals, guitar, bass guitar and drums. Most groups have the option to add more instruments (the saxophone is extremely popular at the moment) or more singers. They can also provide smaller line-ups, e.g. a jazz duo or jazz trio, which can be effective for intimate events or for background music.
