The Jazz Standards Quintet plays the classic standards, enriched by the unique, Hartman-style, baritone vocals of Mr. Dan Richards, who can also scat to the groove.
The band performs regularly in Milan and all over Italy, where it is appreciated for its solid jazz sound - smooth and soft, yet catchy and robust... jazz for all seasons and occasions!
The Jazz Standards Quintet can provide sensual background music to set that cocktail mood, be a more prominent feature of a society evening, or of course the main band in a theater setting. The Quintet plays clubs, bars, restaurants, events, openings, fashion shows, high society weddings and groovy parties in Italy, so bookers include PR structures and organisers of events from medical congresses to street parties! People just seem to love the basic, back-to-the-roots, swing-bepop refined atmosphere that the band creates with its captivating sound.
Heilà quintet...! andiamo a lavorare invece di ravanare su maispeissss..? (...da quale pulpito....!!) Ciao, allora ci si vede venerdì da Diego..? Paul.
