The Porterhouse Trio can provide background music for the cocktail hour and dinner and, later, provide full-fledged entertainment as the get-together moves on into full-party mode — or, the trio can stay in background mode, if that’s what the moment requires. The Porterhouse Trio is always attuned to the crowd, and knows what needs to be played next. Should the tempo go up? Should we play some slow dance music? Or is the crowd ready for some easy listening?
The basic Porterhouse Trio is guitar, saxophone, and bass, but can easily expand into a full musical ensemble, with a singer, pianist and a drummer. You’ll find that the same professionalism and energy permeates the expanded lineup. Whatever the size you pick, the band will adapt to the situation. Do you want a trio playing background jazz for a cocktail hour and, later, the expanded band for those festivities after dinner? No problem!
And locale? We’re based in the Chicago area, but we’ll travel to play — we’ll figure out the arrangements and be wherever you want to throw your party. A ski resort lounge for apre ski? A cruise on Lake Michigan? After-party for the city marathon? No problem!
