Like we said,
we play a
wide variety of material. The cuts below represent demo material
we've been recording recently, a mix of originals and souped-up
standards.
The Buzz... -----------------------------------------------
"We went this past
friday and it was absolutely great! The J3 Intent played some great
jazz and the ambiance couldn't be better!"

"On Friday night,
the flower-filled Garfield Park Conservatory was the setting for a
botanical-themed fashion show dubbed Fleurotica, the first of its kind
held in the space....The event made good use of the entire Garfield
Park Conservatory property, and guests could roam through all the
exhibits, from the steamy atmosphere of the Palm House, where local
jazz-rock band the J3 Intent performed in front of a waterfall"
----------------------------------------------- "Unique and
exciting. They have a great sound and put on a great show."

----------------------------------------------- "The J3 Intent provided the
perfect backdrop to our annual customer appreciation party. They were
lively, and yet remained in the background. Similarly, they were all
very professional, yet friendly enough to be easily approachable. I
must also commend them on how flexible they were given
short notice.
After having worked with these musicians, its obvious they really enjoy
what they do and put themselves out there to ensure the enjoyment of
their clients and their audience."
Andy Yamashiro Marketing Communications Wolfgang Puck Grand Cafe Evanston, IL 60203 --------------------------------------------------- "The J3 Intent performed at
our Volunteer Recognition Holiday Party last year. They were very
pleasant, easy to work with, and flexible in setting up the event, and
their performance was perfect! The music was great - it was just
the right tempo and volume for the occasion. It was enjoyed by
everyone in our very diverse crowd. It made the event incredibly
special. We'll definitely be calling the J3 Intent to perform at
events in the future!"

my parents 50th anniversary party and did an excellent job.. they were
on time, professional, cooperative, and very talented.. We were all
very pleased with their musicianship. Would hire them again,
definitely!"
-Tim Weber ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "The J3 Intent have played for
the Brookfield Jazz Society twice, both as a trio and as a quartet. The
BJS audience is an extremely discerning one, and at both concerts, the
energy displayed by the group was phenomenal. The J3 Intent take a tune,
pull it apart and reinvent it in such a way that the music sounds even better than
the original (unless of course the tune is one of their own compositions).
Justin Gruby's saxophone playing is just superb and the band is also
complemented by his skill on the conga drums. David Schwartz's guitar intertwines
extremely well with both Justin's sax playing and an exciting rhythm section
of Jeff Rendlen on bass and Jason Haaheim at the drums. I'm looking
forward to the J3 Intent appearing again at our Society." Ian Tiele President Brookfield Jazz
Society -------------------------------------------------- "We certainly enjoyed having
the J3 Intent at our 2006 homecoming event. As the person responsible
for overseeing all aspects of the event for our University, I very much
appreciated working with you – you made the process easy and our
participants truly enjoyed your music! We received many positive
comments about your music!"
