About

With solo, instrumental and party entertainment options, Colin Jones Music can deliver the right entertainment for whichever part of your day you are looking to enhance.

With over 30 years of performing experience, Colin can provide a Trumpet Soloist in your wedding ceremony for that timeless touch of class, perhaps working with your organist or to a recorded accompaniment.

If you are looking to create a warm, relaxed and lively ambience through your drinks reception or wedding breakfast, then choose the instrumental act where Trumpet, Flugelhorn and EWI (essentially a digital sax!) are used to perform jazz and swing standards over professionally recorded backing tracks.

Colin Jones Music specialises in live wedding entertainment for couples celebrating their magical day near and beyond Leek, Staffordshire.
