Music is the language of the soul, and this Jazz Band does it best. Composed of masterful musicians, Cognac Jazz has earned it’s reputation as the Washington D.C. jazz group for special occasions.
Fellas, I can’t thank you enough for making our day so special. People are still coming up to us and calling us and texting us to say how much they loved you and your performance! You were so accommodating, adding songs to the set at our request. On a day full of once in a lifetime memories, the moment that fills my heart with joy above all else was dancing with Sofia at the end of the day to Sleepwalkers and Clare de Lune. It was magical.
I will tell everyone I know about how good you all were. You honestly made our day. A thousand thanks.
Best,
Russell
