"I recently hired Ollie and his jazz trio to play my company's Christmas party. It was my first year organizing the party, so the pressure was really on- and Ollie and his band delivered, big time! They were the perfect accompaniment to the party. They came on time, prepared, and ready to roll. They play beautifully as a group, and were all very polite and fun to talk to. I would hire them again in a minute for a company party, or personal event."
