Jaz Paterson
Jaz Paterson is a pop artist based in Auckland, NZ. She enjoys performing her own original music as well as working full time as a musician, performing at weddings, restaurants and corporate/private events. Jaz's acoustic sets can be upbeat, or more relaxed and laid back, depending on your preference for your event. Her music provides beautiful background ambiance for a variety of occasions, with covers from artists ranging from Eva Cassidy to Sam Smith to Elvis Presley. She offers her own varied set list to suit your event and can provide her own compact sound equipment. If your event has a special song you'd like included, this can be organised at your request.
Weddings
I offer tailored live music throughout your wedding day, with the option to learn any additional songs that are special to you and your partner! I can perform as guests arrive before the ceremony to provide a nice relaxed atmosphere ahead of the ceremony, for the bridal entrance, during the signing of the register, and later at the cocktail hour to create a warm and memorable atmosphere. I will coordinate with your celebrant, wedding planner, and venue team to ensure everything is timed smoothly and my performances fit seamlessly into the flow of your special day!
Corporate Events
I provide relaxed, atmospheric live music designed to enhance professional environments without overpowering conversation. This is ideal for guest arrival, networking, and pre-dinner drinks, creating a welcoming and engaging backdrop for attendees, colleagues and clients to connect. I love providing music which elevates the overall experience for guests. I can adapt my set list to suit the tone of your event, from formal functions and award evenings to relaxed brand activations.
Private Events
I enjoy performing at a wide range of private celebrations and I am more than happy to learn any requested songs to personalise your event. Private events I perform at include birthday parties, engagement celebrations, anniversaries, garden parties, house gatherings, and milestone celebrations. Whether your event is an intimate gathering of close friends, or a larger event, I will tailor my music and set list to work with the tone and feel of your special occasion.

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 to set throughout the day. It was such a smooth process coordinating all of the details of 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” - George & Jenny, wedding clients
“Your voice is beautiful and entertainment perfect for a long leisurely afternoon in the sun. We can’t wait to have you back” - Alleley Estate, corporate event client
“We met Jaz while she was performing in Christchurch and instantly said we wanted 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” - Leon & Lou, wedding clients
