Take Two, a top-tier and award-winning jazz duo from London, are just the ticket for adding a touch of class to any event.

These two are no strangers to the spotlight, having serenaded at countless weddings and high-end parties. Their client list is pretty impressive, including big names like Elton John and Lord and Lady Sainsbury, and they even played at a private event for none other than Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Incredible standard of music, we're still smiling from it all! Jelena & Tom, Wedding, Essex

The guitarist aced his Masters at the Royal Academy of Music in London, bagging the Elton John Scholarship, the Scott Philbrick Jazz Scholarship and the John Baker Memorial Prize. He's since dropped a debut album that's had critics raving in The Guardian, Guitarist magazine, and Jazzwise magazine. His album tour, backed by Arts Council England, had him lighting up stages at Ronnie Scott’s and Pizza Express Dean Street, not to mention his gigs with the world-famous CBSO.

Then there's the saxophonist whose debut album had airtime on BBC Radio 3 and followed by a 13-date UK tour. Winner of the Dankworth Prize for Jazz Composition in 2017, he is a regular on stages both in the UK and abroad, with recent gigs in New Zealand and Scandinavia. Like the guitarist, he's a Royal Academy of Music alum with distinction and has the George Drexler Foundation Scholarship to his name.

With a busy year ahead, enquire today to avoid disappointment.
