(My Fiancée and I) were both ecstatic with choosing Pivotal Productions/Jake Rude Swing Sextet for our wedding. We had a mix of people attending and wanted to avoid the mass exodus that sometimes occurs by having a "DJ." Thanks to the band, everyone enjoyed themselves and filled up the dance floor until curfew. Their interaction with all of our guests was outstanding. They were professional and eager to please. All in all, they helped turn our wedding from a ceremony to a party for everyone.

It has been a pleasure to hire musical talent from Pivotal Productions, and I strongly recommend them. Whenever I have needed a jazz trio or a quartet to play a wedding reception or a company function, I just pick up the phone and Jake takes care of all the details. The players are always professional and polite and the music is always perfect for the occasion.

Pivotal Productions provided the Jake Rude Swing Sextet to play at our outdoor wedding (ceremony and reception) and the band did a beautiful job! Not only are they all excellent musicians, but they easily accommodated our requests, and thoroughly entertained all of our guests, who ranged in age from 5 to 93 years old. Several people complimented the band and told me that ours was one of the most enjoyable weddings they had ever attended! The band played the traditional cultural music we requested and had everyone dancing and clapping, as well as the many swing favourites people love. We wanted our wedding to be fun - we wanted our guests to have a great time and celebrate with us. Jake and Pivotal helped make our wedding everything we wanted.

Pivotal Productions is great to work with. When it comes to accommodating requests and specific details, the service is great. Whether supplying a solo artist, trio or, larger band, they always come through with flying colours. Excellent Work!

We recently hired the Jake Rude Jazz Quartet through Pivotal Productions to entertain our brokers. We needed something low-key, but distinctive. The band was fabulous! Our clients loved them, and so did we. A nice mix of jazz standards and a few light swing numbers. Pivotal Productions was so easy to work with too! Just perfect! What a difference good music can make to an event!
