The Slick City Jazz Stompers play traditional dixieland jazz straight out of New Orleans. They’re ideally suited to playing at garden parties and outdoor events where a power supply isn’t available.

The band’s extensive repertoire features dixieland jazz classics by the likes of Bix Beiderbecke, King Oliver and Louis Armstrong alongside jazz standards from the great American Songbook.

The band’s slick, personal and flexible approach makes it the ideal choice and finishing touch to your important event.

With an extensive repertoire of Christmas songs, The Slick City Jazz Stompers are a great choice for any winter's party too!

Excellent music, thank you! Gordon Ramsay, Waldorf Hotel, London

The band offer a range of line-ups which can be tailored to suit the nature of your event, from a duo through to the full 7-piece band. Here are the various lineup options to choose from:

Trio (clarinet, banjo, sousaphone): This is the most popular choice, perfect for creating a celebratory atmosphere at a champagne wedding reception or adding some fun to any corporate function. It's guaranteed to get everyone's toes tapping and bring smiles to your guests' faces.
4-piece (banjo, clarinet, sousaphone, cornet or drums): The 4-piece band offers flexibility and is available in two different combinations to suit your needs. With the addition of either trumpet or drums, this lineup provides more prominence and versatility compared to the smaller 3-piece group.
5-piece (banjo, clarinet, cornet, sousaphone, drums): While maintaining the authentic sound of the 7-piece band, the 5-piece option uses two front-line instruments and is a great choice for those with a smaller budget.
6-piece (banjo, clarinet, cornet, trombone, sousaphone, drums): This lineup makes for an excellent dance band. The infectious sound of the three horns and the rhythm section will make your party a memorable one. The six and seven-piece bands also include an excellent vocalist.
7-piece (full band): The ultimate lineup, the 7-piece band delivers a hot jazz sound, a big presence, and an infectious feel-good vibe that will lift everyone's spirits and make your event exceptionally memorable.

“Thank you to your quartet for the fantastic music at our wedding reception. All performers were of a high professional standard in both skill and attitude. The music was much appreciated by our guests and created a joyful and relaxed atmosphere. Your booking process was simple and efficient and the personal service much appreciated. I will recommend The Slick City Jazz Stompers to all of my friends.”

Natalie, Wedding in Hertfordshire, July 2024

“We had an amazing time! The Cotton Club theme just came together with The Slick City Jazz Stompers playing the really authentic 20/30s New Orleans Jazz, the dance floor was full all evening. You must book these guys!!! They are the best!”

Sue, Party in Leicestershire, June 2024

“I just wanted to say the biggest thank you to you and the band. Oh my, you were all great. Everybody thinks you were the best live band they have ever heard. Everybody wants to book you for their parties. I really can't thank you enough, you made the day so perfect.”

Pusia, Wedding in Sussex, February 2024

“Thank you for your really enjoyable playing at my party last Saturday. It was great to have you here and you added hugely to the relaxed and jolly atmosphere. Many of my guests commented on how well the music worked and I was delighted by the entire occasion.”

James, Birthday Party in London, November 2023

“This is the second time we have booked The Slick City Jazz Stompers, the last time was 10 years ago, and the quality was just as good. I understand that the musicians vary from gig to gig, and given this they were incredibly ‘joined up’ as a group. They were very accommodating of our site and clientele, which is a special needs school and adapted their set-list and performance accordingly. Thanks so much for your pizazz and enthusiasm!”
