NY Cool Cats Jazz Ensemble has been around since 2009. We are professional musicians, and we have performed in MD, VA, NY, DC for many venues, events, weddings, parties, bars, restaurants. .etc. We have always getting a great feedback from our clients. The violin, the main solo instrument of the group add an elegance to the group and make the ordinary jazz somewhat fun and different. Review for the violinist Chia-Yin Holmes from the jazz times on one track of the album "African Skies". It says, 'Chinese Fishing Song' signals a change of gear and direction – heading East, rhapsodic piano evoking the rippling of waves and then slow stately violin takes the folk song theme. Moving into a steady tempo as the violin (Chia Yin Holmes) slowly builds an elegant yet intense solo, increasingly prodded by drum interjections, followed by muscular, jaunty piano.We have also recorded for a jazz album entitled "African Skies"under the artist Joel Holmes. We have a wide range of song selections.(jazz, world, pop..)

Here is the sample song list :
All the things you are, Alone together, Autumn in NY, You are the sunshine of my life, The girl from Ipanema, Blue Bossa, Desafinado, All of me, A night in Tunisia, Satin Doll. Stella by starlight, Smile, Fly me to the moon, Night and day, My favorite things, How high the moon, Taking a chance on love, Take the A train, When I fall in love, Yesterdays. ..
