Songs with Jaz
Creating joy and connection through nostalgic, engaging live music performances for older adults

About me
I’m a full-time musician based in Auckland, with years of experience performing in a wide range of settings — from bars and festivals to private events. I hold a Bachelor of Counselling, and I’m passionate about using music not just as entertainment, but as a tool for connection and comfort and wellbeing. My background in mental health counselling gives me a unique lens when working with older adults, particularly those in dementia care, residential facilities, and hospice environments. I approach each performance with empathy, sensitivity, and the ability to be in tune with people's needs. My goal is to create high quality, meaningful, engaging performances which support mental and emotion wellbeing.

Here is a sample of some of the songs available on my set list:
​
-
Can’t help falling in love
-
We'll meet again
-
Stand by me
-
Let’s stay together
-
White Cliffs of Dover
-
Dancing queen
-
Somewhere over the rainbow
-
She'll be coming round the mountain
-
You are my sunshine
-
Que Sera Sera
-
What a wonderful world
Testimonials
“We were elated to have Jaz perform at our wedding and couldn't be happier with her performance! Her acoustic set helped make our ceremony feel intimate and personal, and we couldn't have imagined how perfectly she captured the vibe we wanted set throughout the day. It was a such a smooth process coordinating all of the details for the day of our wedding and we are so glad we got to work with her; she truly helped make one of the most important, special days of our lives a dream!”

“We met Jaz whilst she was performing in Christchurch, and instantly said we want her to play at our wedding.
She wrote a beautiful song for our engagement, which was performed at the wedding and there was not a dry eye in the house. Jaz has an amazing voice that can cover a lot of genres. She nailed every song for us, and our guests were very impressed.
