About / Biography

"We have never had as many people on the dancefloor in all our awards history. The band were fantastic!"
Jeremy Brinkworth, Director, "Visit England" Awards of Excellence

The Jazz Prescription is a Jazz & Swing band that caters for every occasion: parties, weddings, corporate events and performs locally, across the UK and abroad. The band has been wowing audiences for over 10 years and is fronted by singer/pianist Jeremy Sassoon.

Jeremy is a well known singer pianist in the UK and one of the unique selling points of the band is that the musicians he picks are the finest session musicians in the UK and have played with the top A-list stars. The musicians you see in the profile pictures alone have played or toured with Chaka Khan, Sister Sledge, Eric Clapton, The Eagles, Jamiroquai, Kylie Minogue, Rod Stewart, Sting, The Brand New Heavies, Natalie Cole, Mel C, Corinne Bailey Rae and Will Young. He can bring this calibre of musicians to your own wedding or event at yet at a competitive price

The Jazz Prescription setlist is unique and takes you on a musical 'journey through time', starting with the Jazz & Swing era, passing through the Jump-Jive of the 1950's, and ending with a dancefloor-filling selection of pop & soul favourites from the 60's, 70's & beyond.

The band size is tailored to fit your individual event, varying from a 3-piece to a 7-piece band with a full brass section, depending on the size of your event

As well as playing at your private event, band leader, singer pianist Jeremy has played at the world's top jazz clubs and festivals: Ronnie Scotts (London) The Iridium (New York). He has a residency at the Boisdale Clubs (London) and entertains at the Shard, the Arts Club (Mayfair) as well as appearing at high profile events such as The UEFA Champions League Final and The Americas Cup sailing regatta finals (Valencia). The band has been booked by Hugo Boss, Ralph Lauren, Manchester United,

Jeremy's winning formula is that he builds close relationships with clients and audiences alike. In the past 12 months, he has provided live jazz for a dinner party for two and a theatre for 800!

"Sassoon is a charming and witty front-man. He can make the audience feel immediately at ease" London Jazz News
