Swing New Orleans - Jazz Band

This New Orleans style Dixieland group are the perfect wandering act. With the ability to stroll around and entertain guests they can be booked as a duo or any combination up to a 7 piece band.

The band is ‘all acoustic’ and therefore does not use any electrical equipment, meeting the requirements stipulated by a few wedding venues that do not allow amplification. An excellent choice for both outdoor and indoor events, the 7 piece are a popular favourite for the celebrity reception and the high profiled corporate event. Generating a vibrant atmosphere, the band’s compelling jazz music guarantees your guests will just want to get up and dance and their lively music makes any occasion a success.

"Excellent Music, Thank You." Gordon Ramsay, Waldorf Hotel, London
