Dotsero & Jakarta

Dotsero - To music fans worldwide DOTSERO translates to "A no nonsense thrill ride of energy and excitement" a band full of life, energy and spontaneity that few artists in the genre have been able to match. As much fun to watch as they are to listen to. Colorado's own DOTSERO band Taking their name from a small mountain town in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, DOTSERO means “Something Unique”. Formed in 1984 the Dotsero Band, brothers Stephen and David Watts set sail on the contemporary jazz circuit with a vengeance. Performing all the major jazz festivals From Ala Carte Ala Park in San Francisco to West Palm Beach’s Sunfest, Red Rocks , JVC Winter Park Jazz Fest, Jazz Trax Catalina Island Jazz Fest and The Cancun Jazz Festival, among many others. Over the years Dotsero founding member David retired from the scene leaving the band solely in the hands of front man, sax man Steve Watts. Maintaining the integrity and standard people have come to expect from the shows, Steve opened up the genre full throttle adding the excitement of vocals, dual keyboards to the already funky sounds on the bass, drums and of course sax & ewi. You can expect to hear original music from their 16 CD releases as well some covers of their favorite artists. Dotsero is an unstoppable band of true musicianship.

The Jakarta Band creates a unique sound that reflects the African-American rhythmic dance music that mixes soul, jazz, and rhythm and blues. We create a 'FUNKY' sound that is evident by the people who start dancing the minute they hear our band. Jakarta is a popular choice for couples getting married and have performed for numerous weddings over the years. We are also a great choice for Corporate events with a diverse crowd. The Earth, Wind, and Fire, Kool and the Gang, Motown, Bruno Mars and Prince influence in many of our songs is a big crowd-pleaser and has universal appeal that surpasses musical genres and cultural and geographical boundaries. We perform songs from the 70's Disco/Dance, 80's Rock,  New Jack Swing 90's, to today's Pop tunes, and even a little Country. The band performs at many venues across the United States, Europe & Asia. We truly believe that we can make your event phenomenal. And it is a sure bet no one will be sitting still.
