Brooklyn's Traditional Jazz Band

Meet the Small Dog Jazz Society, a Brooklyn-based band with a passion for classic American jazz and swing, specializing in music of the early 1900's by the likes of Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, and many other legendary greats.

Founded in 2021 when New York City's music venues were closed, we took a cue from the time-honored New Orleans tradition of playing in the streets and moved our music outdoors! We honed our craft playing hundreds of hours in city parks, always with several small dogs at our side.

These days we specialize in private parties, swing dancing events and weddings. The Small Dog Jazz Society is a joyful, high energy group that brings a ton of fun to any engagement. We can be hired with male or female lead vocals, in configurations ranging from a trio to our full sextet depending on your budget and your needs. Drop us a line. We’d love to work with you to make your party or event an amazing affair!

We had the Small Dog Jazz society play at our wedding and they were a delight, bringing good vibes and amazing tunes. They were very professional and friendly, and got all of us dancing!

Small Dog Jazz Society made our party a success! I highly recommend them.
