To Whom it May Concern,

Mitch has been a valued entertainer at The Rock Golf course for many years now. Our Friday night regulars first question is “when do Mitch and the jazz guys start”?  Wonderful musicians and great people to work with.

Your customers or guests would be entertained and treated right when Mitch and his crew is involved. Mitch is a true professional and I would recommend his services to anyone!

Mitch and Jason did an excellent job entertaining us on Pub Night. I had many great comments from patrons saying the music was ‘fabulous’ and that they were the best duo we have had yet! Folks were impressed with Jason’s custom 8-string guitar as he played bass lines and piano accompaniments simultaneously through the guitar synthesizer. Mitch’s buttery sax improvisations and cool jazz vocals impressed.

Mitch and Jason put on a great show for our post tournament events this season.  They are talented, lively and do a fantastic job creating an upbeat atmosphere for our events.  They would be appropriate for any event or for any occasion.

My husband and I saw Mitch and Jason perform at Sawdust City Brewery on New Years Eve (2024).I

I knew immediately that I wanted to hire them for a birthday party for my father-in-law, we had scheduled for October 2024.. He loves jazz music, and this was such a wonderful gift!

Mitch was very responsive to my questions, prompt and kind. We booked them for a 3 hour set for a cocktail party, and everyone raved about the performance, even a handful taking to the dance floor. Thank you to Mitch and his bandmates for a great evening of music!

If you are looking for a lovely, live music addition to your party, we highly recommend Mitch!

Tina Arbuckle Deputy Clerk

“The Mitch Beube Jazz and Swing Band performed at The Town of Bracebridge’s Inaugural Council Meeting Reception in November 2022. A Duo was playing to welcome guests to the event and a quartet playing during the reception after the meeting. Both instances were a perfect fit for the atmosphere of the event. Their sound was smooth and added a level sophistication to our event. The players were friendly and professional and we received many compliments on our choice of entertainment for the evening. Many thanks for helping to make our event such a success.”

Senior Wedding Couple

“Bev and I recently had the pleasure of having Mitch and his colleagues play at our wedding. As a “senior” I was admittedly a bit uneasy about having live music at our event. My concerns proved entirely unfounded. Put simply the quality of performance was superb. However the group’s professionalism extends well beyond performance to critical issues like pre-event planning inclusive of “special song” choices, timely set up and even providing the mic for speeches.

Put simply, not only is Mitch a superb musician, he is a consummate professional. The entire experience from initial interview, to planning, through to superb play at our special event was beyond expectation. Perhaps the greatest telling point – the number of compliments from our guests who ranged in age from 8 to literally 99. ”

Lakeside Bala Limited

Mitch and his accompanying piano players have played multiple times at Lakeside Bala in the 2020 and 2021 season. They are a professional group and a crowd pleaser. A mix of jazz and blues with entertainment to satisfy. You won’t be disappointed with this group.

Dear Mitchell,

It has been a while since you left our home but my wife and I have had continual reminders from all of our guests of that evening about the warmth and professionalism during the entire 3 hour performance. The COVID breakout celebration far exceeded our expectations thanks to you and the other musicians performing during the evening. Combining our requested music from our predominately Irish group with your Jazz selections really worked. The way all three of you related to the event itself and to our guests made the evening very special for all. Providing sheets of music for selected songs, “Danny Boy”, Leonard Cohens “Hallelujah,” Unchained Melody” and other requests was very thoughtful and fitted perfectly with the evening. We look forward to having your group back again,
Bob McGavin and Kerry Adams,

Mitch and Will were the perfect complement to my wife’s 40th birthday party. They were super accommodating, easy to coordinate with, and of course the music was the quintessential fit for the atmosphere. We will definitely look to have them play for us again at our earliest opportunity!”
