The Swinging Little Big Band
Big Band Function Jazz Wedding
Updated: 24-01-2012
The Swinging Little Big Band play a mixture of Sinatra and Rat Pack covers all specially adapted to deliver the exuberance of the original big band arrangements with the tight punch of a 6-piece group. But what makes this band truly unique is their stunning swing versions of of modern pop and rock songs: The Rolling Stones' 'Paint it Black' done salsa style; a blistering swing take on Nirvana's 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' and even Radiohead's 'Creep' made to sound like it was made for a Vegas casino! Predominantly a 6-piece (vocals, sax, keyboards, guitar, bass & drums). The band can also offer a set of background jazz standards as a trio (sax, keyboards and double bass) during drinks
