Nicolle B.

"Justin Pierce’s Jazz Band delighted us as well as our guests. They accommodated all of our requests to learn a couple of new songs and offer sound tracks for a few songs that weren’t in their repertoire. Justin’s saxophone and the singer were tremendous, perfectly balanced with the other musicians. We would strongly recommend this band to anyone looking for soft, iconic jazz music for their event."

Jane R.

"I hired Justin Pierce's Dallas Jazz Band (2 piece - sax/piano) for my husband's 60th birthday party. My husband loves jazz, and Justin's band was amazing. They even snuck in a little "Go Go Power Rangers" for my 4 yo son who is obsessed with Power Rangers. I highly recommend Justin Pierce's Dallas Jazz Band for any occasion."

Debra H.

"I used Justin for our wedding and it was fantastic. I wanted a New Orleans style 2nd line parade with a brass band, and he brought the vision to life seamlessly! The band was a hit with all my guests. I am a musician myself and can say, you should definitely book these guys. He was very nice and communicative as well!!"
