The most famous Jazzman of them all, Louis Armstrong, had this to say about musicians: "We all 'do, re, mi,' but you have got to find the other notes yourself."  The talented musicians that make up our groups have found those “other notes.” Our artists are all full-time professional musicians. We love what we do, and it shows!  We've played thousands of weddings, cocktail receptions, second lines, social and corporate parties and international festivals. What can we do for you?         

Saxophonist and singer Jerry Embree is Jazzman’s founder and director. A professional musician for over 30 years, he is endorsed by Conn-Selmer, Inc., the largest manufacturer of band and orchestral instruments in the United States. He has recorded with music legends such as Fats Domino and Bobby Charles.
