About Cocktail Sax Jazz Band

Cocktail Sax is an elegant jazz band playing in the Indianapolis area creating special memorable events.  We play a variety of Corporate Events and Receptions, Wedding Receptions, Private Parties, Jazz and Music Festivals, and local jazz restaurants/clubs.   As an Indianapolis Jazz Band, our great musicians consist of a sax player, keyboards, drums and jazz bass enhance your event to add a sophisticated and stylish atmosphere.

We provide the music to make your event high energy or mellow smooth jazz whichever you desire to facilitate the ideal special event.
 
We specialize in jazz and play popular variety songs with musical styles from big band, love songs, and smooth jazz sounds. The band is composed of saxophones, keyboard, bass and drums with optional male or female vocals as the need demands.  (See Better than a Jazz Trio below)
Enjoy Live Jazz music


We can perform as part of the event and bring elegance and class to this special day. The smooth sound of a saxophone with a full band and/or soloist can bring a distinctive experience to the program.

Special songs can be played during guest arrival, during the program, and as guests leave for the reception giving the event more enjoyment for all the guests.
 
As expert musicians, we play at appropriate sound levels, allowing you to have conversations and enjoy the music...

Better than a Jazz Trio - The advantage of Four instead of a Trio!

 
Often, people will hire a trio of musicians ... which leave one instrument to create the melody line of all the music.  While this is nice for a while, a steady hour or longer will get boring and tedious on the ears.  
 
The advantage of a four piece band of musicians is that you alternate the melody lines between more instruments which make the music much more interesting and appealing to the listener.
 
For events lasting more than one hour, the difference is very apparent to the people at the event and the atmosphere can be much more exciting and pleasant with a four piece group.
