I've just come home from Tracy and Chin Hon's wedding at the Fullerton and what a wonderful night it was! Tonight, James was on keys and Jon on sax.

So let's start with the cocktails. We did a half hour set as the guests came streaming in. Kim from the Wedding Conceirge made sure that everything ran at the right pace so that our band could ease everybody in with a good mix of instrumental and vocal pieces. Thanks Kim!

Then came the big entrance by Tracy and Chin Hon to a keyboard and trumpet accompaniment provided by their guests, channeling a gorgeous 50s vibe.
The keyboardist was the music director for New Creation Church for a number of years no less!
A number of special songs were also performed by the talented duo and even Tracy herself, putting her new grasp of mandarin to show with Yue Liang Dai Biao Wo De Xin. I was very impressed by her beijing accent ;)

More surprises lay in store as an Australian guest came up for an impromptu performance on stage.
Timothy, an accomplished saxophonist and one of Jon's teachers, charmed the whole room with his smooth vocals and sexy renditions of Day and Night, and Route 66.

Finally, our band surprised the couple's parents with 2 hokkien songs (ji ki shio hoh sua & ai pia jia eh yia) before rounding off the night with more smooth jazz.

Thanks Tracy & Chin Hon for a great party and our best to you both!
