I have been playing Solo guitar in restaurants and bars and I can do it without the Fake backgrounds. I do my own bass lines and percussion.
Have played in Vegas. Loved it .
But I have been approached for corporate work which requires a team.
The money is good enough for me to put up with the pain of putting up with musicians egos. So let's do it.

Basically if it has drive and heart, I like it.
I don't like whimpy stuff.
And I believe that a good Jazz singer sings like a Sax (trailing note and breathy)
Not into shrieking ladies, which seems the go today, but in my eyes no heart just screaming .
