This state of the art recorded rhythm section is light years away from the outdated, thin, sequenced midi tracks that are many bands use today.
9) Volume: Volume is never an issue. The Stratosphere Jazz Band has the unique ability to play at virtually any volume. Don't let your event be ruined by a band that plays so loud that people are unable to network and leave the event early. Our rhythm section (piano, bass, drums, guitar) is pre recorded for that very reason. They can easily be turned down.
10) Cost effective: The Stratosphere Jazz Band 2- 5 piece bands cost a third less than most other 6 to 10 piece bands without forfeiting sound quality. In addition, The Stratosphere Jazz Band requires less stage space and electricity, which can save your company money.
