Who We Are

Featured in the Spring 2017 issue of Martha Stewart Wedding, Jazz Cooperative is a unique network of ensembles composed of highly trained and experienced musicians performing in the classic jazz tradition.
Beginning in 2005 and led by saxophonist Sam Taylor, the groups have performed throughout New York City, Westchester County, and the tri-state area developing a unique sound and vast repertoire. Their extraordinary musicianship has brought them to such venues as The National Arts Club, Jazz at Lincoln Center and Webster Hall.
As a true testament to their sound and professionalism, the group has maintained two weekly engagements in Manhattan for nearly six years.

What Our Clients Say...
"As a wedding planner I seek out the best vendors to work with, those who are passionate, professional, talented, organzied and on time and Jazz Cooperative is all of the above and more! They recently played at a wedding I planned and I could not have been happier! The guests arrived to wonderful music and the band was pleasant to work with from arrival to exit!"

"We booked Sam and the Jazz Coop to play our wedding ceremony and cocktail reception. The trio are super talented, very professional and flexible to work with. Great value for the cost conscious. Look no further!"
Eric / Wedding, Brooklyn NY |
"My husband and I placed a great deal of emphasis on choosing the perfect music for our wedding reception. We knew early on that we did not want a conventional cookie-cutter wedding, and the typical soundtrack that goes along with one. We chose the Sam Taylor Trio because of their undeniable talent, but also because they added a modern feel to classic jazz standards. Their sound is refined, but most importantly their music created the atmosphere that we will remember the rest of our lives."
