A swing jazz band transports your wedding to the period when romance was king
The keynote of Swing Jazz is Romance with a capital “R”. Think Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Think Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby and all the Ratpack classics. The Swing Jazz repertoire is full of beautifully-crafted light-hearted songs with effortless lyrics and timeless melodies. It’s uplifting, hip-swinging music, easy on the ear.
Between the wars, Hollywood took the best of the New York Broadway musicals and transformed them into world-wide classic films that encapsulate the Jazz Age. Thus Swing Jazz was born. With its elegant sense of style, it’s the perfect musical backdrop for sumptuous dresses and celebration.
