As The Jazzberries have such a versatile double bassist (and musical director) in Jonny Gee, we can offer a wide range of line-ups, playing a number of different jazz styles, all to the highest standard.



Below is a list of just some of our popular repertoire - there’s lots more, so if you want a particular song, just ask!  Given enough notice we can even learn something specially for you....
