Blue Juice are a high quality jazz duo capable of delivering smooth and sophisticated background music
The duo is fronted by singer Jane Oliver and has been charming audiences for years with their accessible arrangements of jazz classics by Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Nat King Cole, Nina Simone and other greats.

Thank you so much for absolutely making our wedding/goodbye party on Saturday at the Barnsdale Lodge. You were a brilliant surprise for me and made my afternoon playing for us and our guests.
Many thanks
