Jazz, Lounge, Background Music and Hotels
The Jetset Society provides stylish jazz, lounge and dinner music for hotels, receptions, jazz brunches, dinner events, hotel bars and high-end occasions in Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland.
Not every event needs loud party energy. Very often, understated and tasteful live music creates the special atmosphere: jazz standards in a swing style, bossa nova, samba, soul, lounge and elegant pop interpretations – vocal, instrumental or a combination of both.
In this area, restraint, tasteful song selection and controlled volume are especially important. The music should enhance the room, allow conversations and create a refined setting without pushing itself into the foreground.
For jazz, lounge and dinner settings, smaller setups of 3 to 5 musicians are usually suitable. The basic lineup can consist of keyboard, bass and drums and can be expanded with vocals or additional instruments depending on the occasion.
- Stylish jazz, lounge and dinner music for hotels, receptions, brunches, dinner events, business occasions and galas.
- Especially suitable for music phases where atmosphere and conversation-friendly volume matter more than show impact.
- Flexible setups from smaller jazz formations to an expanded live band for later event phases.
- Repertoire, volume, lineup and technical setup are adapted to room, guest count, schedule and desired effect.
What our clients say

“The band gave our dinner event exactly the stylish framework we wanted. Very high-end and professional.”
Which music fits which subtle event moment?
When guests arrive, music should create a refined first impression. Jazz, bossa nova, lounge and subtle soul titles accompany arrivals without covering conversations.
During dinner, atmosphere is the priority. The music remains controlled, carefully balanced and conversation-friendly – ideal for hotels, galas, corporate events and private dinners.
For hotel bars, lounges and exclusive rooms, the music should feel present and refined without becoming intrusive. Sound, timing and volume awareness are essential.
A jazz brunch lives from relaxed energy. Swing, bossa nova, soul and lounge create a stylish daytime atmosphere and enhance the setting.
For networking, client events and corporate receptions, subtle live music supports the professional character without disturbing presentations, conversations or event flow.
If more energy is desired after dinner or reception, the concept can later move towards soul, pop, funk or danceable live music.
Live band with jazz, lounge and a broad repertoire
The Jetset Society combines jazz, lounge and dinner music with a broad repertoire. This allows an event to begin calmly and elegantly and later become musically more lively without creating a strong stylistic break.
Depending on the occasion, jazz standards, bossa nova, soul, easy listening, elegant pop interpretations or subtle instrumental pieces may be suitable. For events with several phases, the music can later expand towards danceable live sets.
- Hotels, hotel bars, restaurants and lounge settings
- Receptions, aperitifs, dinners and jazz brunches
- Business events, client events and networking
- Gala dinners, charity events and representative occasions
- Weddings with reception, dinner and a later party section
Which lineup is suitable for jazz, lounge and dinner?
Keyboard, bass and drums as a subtle basic lineup for jazz, lounge, dinner, reception, hotel bar and jazz brunch.
Vocals can give the setting more presence and recognition – especially with lounge, soul, jazz standards or elegant pop songs.
Depending on room and occasion, a smaller formation can be expanded with additional instruments without losing its subtle character.
More information about flexible lineups can be found on the Lineups page.
Volume, technical setup and schedule
The music should fill the room while still allowing conversations. This control is especially important during dinner, hotel bar and reception settings.
A very slim setup is often enough. Room size, acoustics, lineup, vocals and existing equipment determine the exact needs.
Setup, soundcheck, playing times, breaks and transitions should be planned so that service, programme and guest flow are not disturbed.
Jazz and lounge music for business events, galas and receptions
Jazz and lounge music are not only useful for hotels or dinners. At corporate events, business receptions, networking events, client evenings and galas, a smaller live lineup can create a refined framework without dominating the event flow.
Especially during reception, aperitif, dinner or programme breaks, subtle live music supports the atmosphere and creates an elegant transition between event phases.
For larger events, a calm start with jazz, lounge or dinner music can later move into a bigger lineup and more danceable live sets. This is especially useful for corporate events, galas and weddings with several music phases.
Which details help for an offer?
It is helpful to know whether music is needed for reception, dinner, hotel bar, jazz brunch, lounge atmosphere, background music, business event or gala dinner.
Room size, guest count, acoustics, indoor or outdoor setting and available space help assess the right lineup.
Should the music remain very subtle, have more presence or later move towards a more danceable programme? This decision affects lineup and schedule.
Power supply, setup time, existing equipment, venue access, stage or playing area and possible volume rules should be clarified early.

In hotels, dinner settings, receptions and lounges, conversation-friendly volume is essential. The music should create atmosphere without disturbing conversations, service flow or programme moments.
Which music is suitable for receptions, dinners and hotel bars?
Jazz standards, bossa nova, lounge, soul, easy listening and subtle pop arrangements are often suitable for receptions, dinners and hotel bars. The music feels refined while remaining understated and room-friendly.
Can jazz and lounge music also be used for corporate events or galas?
Yes. For corporate events, client receptions, networking formats, gala dinners and representative occasions, a smaller live lineup can create an elegant framework without dominating the event flow.
Which information helps for an offer for jazz or lounge music?
Helpful details include date, venue, room size, guest count, music phase, desired playing time, existing technical equipment, setup time and whether the music should remain subtle or later expand towards a broader event band concept.
Does live music also make sense for recurring hotel or lounge formats?
Yes. For hotels, bars, jazz brunches or regular lounge formats, recurring dates can be planned. Lineup, volume, repertoire and technical requirements are adapted to the venue.
Can The Jetset Society cover jazz, dinner music and later dance music?
Yes. An event can begin with jazz, lounge or dinner music and later become more lively. Depending on the occasion, the concept can move towards soul, pop, funk, disco or danceable live music.
Which live band is suitable for reception, dinner and a later party?
A suitable live band should be able to perform both subtle music and more danceable sets with control. The Jetset Society can start with smaller setups and, if needed, plan a larger lineup for more live energy.
How is jazz music for hotels different from music for parties?
Hotel, dinner and lounge music is usually more subtle, quieter and focused on atmosphere and conversation. Party music later in the evening needs more energy, more dynamics and often a different lineup or set structure.
What technical equipment does a jazz or lounge lineup need?
A reduced technical setup is often enough. Room size, acoustics, lineup, vocals, existing equipment and desired volume determine what is needed. The Jetset Society can support suitable sound planning if required.
Can a small jazz lineup feel high-end enough for exclusive events?
Yes. Small lineups can feel very high-end when repertoire, performance style, appearance and volume are professionally coordinated. For exclusive receptions, dinners and hotel settings, less is often stronger.
Does The Jetset Society also perform outside Vienna?
Yes. The main area includes Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland. Other regions in Austria and selected international events are possible on request.
