The Pop Nouveau Trio: Sophisticated & Subtle

Saxophone | Guitar | Bass

The Pop Nouveau Trio is our most popular configuration and the gold standard for creating an upscale atmosphere. It is the perfect choice for intimate gatherings where subtle volume control is paramount. By omitting drums, the Trio provides a lush, "cool" jazz sound that allows for effortless conversation while still maintaining a world-class musical presence. Whether it’s an elegant cocktail hour or a private gallery opening, the Trio offers a polished, high-end soundtrack that fits perfectly into any space.

The Pop Nouveau Quartet: Rhythmic Energy & Groove

Saxophone | Guitar | Bass | Drums

When the occasion calls for a bit more extravagance, our Quartet steps onto the stage ready to command the room. By adding a Broadway-caliber drummer to the mix, the Quartet raises the level of rhythmic excitement and brings a "hot" energy to the performance. This configuration is designed for settings where a more exuberant, grooving performance is needed to keep the event moving. The addition of the drum kit transforms our sound into a vibrant, foot-tapping experience that bridges the gap between a low key jazz set and a high-energy jazz party.

Our Signature Sound: Pop Meets Jazz

Across both ensembles, we specialize in a unique musical alchemy: transforming beloved pop hits—from the 1950s to the latest chart-toppers of the 2020s—into our signature jazz-infused renditions. If you’re feeling nostalgic, we are always happy to sprinkle in timeless jazz standards from any era. From Sinatra to Swift, we ensure a truly unforgettable and contemporary musical experience for all your guests.
