Jeff Williams, bandleader, trombonist and vocalist runs one of the most, if not the, most respected New Orleans Funeral Bands in England. They have helped in saying goodbye to many people who chose to celebrate their life with such a jazz band. As many now know, the New Orleans Funeral Band is an integral part of many funerals in the New Orleans area and has been for many years. From mourning the passing of the individual concerned, with slow, dignified hymns, to celebrating a life through happy, uplifting traditional jazz songs.

“The secret is a good conversation between myself and the person who initially makes the enquiry about the band” says Jeff. “Very often, the person asking about using a New Orleans Jazz Band is bemused by the deceased’s request. I need to discuss the format and explain how the band works in context with the rest of the funeral. Once I get the chance to do this, then the organiser gets it. Jazz band hire is very much about good communication. The more the person wanting a band can explain how and when and where they need a band and the person supplying the band can ask questions, you know the client is going to be satisfied on the day. That and checking out the bands video and testimonials.

It is fair to say that, in using a New Orleans Funeral Band, a great deal of dignity will be exercised. Especially when the band leads the cortege down from the cemetery gates and up to the chapel. Or, alternatively from the deceased’s home and down the road. “This is the point where the music is slow, usually hymns and is taking everyone to the chapel. At this point people are mourning. The music reflects this and the mood is sad, or at least solemn. Once inside, the mourners will listen to the service, we may get asked to play a hymn or two, and we are always willing to oblige. More ofter than not we are outside waiting for people to come out of the church” More video of the band in question here. Are you unfamiliar with the idea of New Orleans Funeral Jazz Band Hire?
