The Mood Merchants come together in four regular jazz-focused ensembles, each suited to a range of common situations. They also specialise in creating custom groups for unique or unusual situations.

The Mood Merchants Trio has three different configurations, each with its own instrumentation and specialist musicians.

There is a swinging background music group, perfect for creating atmosphere at weddings, events and corporate functions.

There is a group dedicated to restaurant roving, a quiet and fully acoustic trio which can go from to table to table providing intimate and interactive entertainment to diners.

And there is a street roving group, a fully acoustic and mobile trio which can create a carnival atmosphere for outdoor events and promotions.

The Mood Merchants Quintet is a classic jazz, pop and soul ensemble with a female vocalist and a three-piece rhythm section. It can play everything from quiet, intimate background music to full-on dance sets. It is perfect for weddings and corporate events in medium-to-large venues.

These four groups can cover lots of situations, but some events require something bigger, or smaller, or a different style, or playing particular repertoire, or working in special circumstances. We specialise in creating custom ensembles to meet your needs, whatever they are.
