Originating in the United States, swing bands transport the classic tunes spanning the 1920s to the 1940s into the present. Their timeless melodies defined an era with infectious, toe-tapping rhythms that urge you to hit the dance floor. Ideal for wedding receptions, corporate events, or private parties, swing music effortlessly infuses your event with nostalgia and charm.
Jazz and swing bands come in various sizes and musical styles. From big bands consisting of 12-25 members to quartets and gypsy jazz trios, you can find the perfect live band for any event. These talented performers can take the main stage as a wedding band or dance band or create the perfect melodic backdrop for a more low-key event.
