Cocktail hour jazz

These musicians were amazing. They showed up on time and ready to entertain our guests. Everyone at the wedding came up to us to say that this cocktail hour band was top notch. Hire them!

Josh Karas
Josh Karas
Owner

My name is Josh Karas and I'm the owner of The Cocktail Jazz Band. I'm also a piano player, jazz lover, and recent groom myself! I started playing at weddings when I was a freshman in high school. Since then, I've performed at countless ceremonies, cocktail hours, and receptions in jazz groups, party bands, and as a classical soloist. I love playing music for the most special day in people's lives, and this has taken on a whole new meaning since I got married in 2024. As the owner of the band, I promise to treat each wedding as my top priority, as if it were my own.
