With the Sorta Dixie Jazz Band
you get swinging entertainment for corporate events
, private parties, and wedding receptions
. The band has a standard line-up of five
professional players but can be flexible to suit the
occasion.
For instance, our indoor party band
would normally comprise trumpet (doubling flugel), saxophone (doubling clarinet), electric piano, bass and drums. For
outdoor events
(a garden party for example) the line-up would be trumpet, clarinet, banjo, tuba and trombone.
Because of the versatility of the band,
musicians can be added or subtracted to provide the
right size combo for every occasion. You might
require a smaller or larger combo to suit your budget or
venue and the band can be supplied as a trio, quartet
and greater to accommodate these requirements.
The band has a broad repertoire
and generally plays swing standards and traditional jazz favourites from the '40s, '50s and 60s. Listeners and dancers will enjoy the sounds of
Louis Armstrong, Harry James,
Benny Goodman, Nat King Cole and
Glenn Miller. For functions such as weddings,
more up-to-date tastes can also be catered for to keep
the youngsters dancing!
The band specialises in entertaining people. Because we
help make each event successful, our clients keep coming
back for more. In the main, the band's engagements
are private parties
and regularly bring fun, elegance, and excitement to these functions throughout the country. The band also performs at
jazz festivals and concerts
and can be seen performing in various London jazz clubs. We also have
demo tapes
available for listening at home to give you a wider view of our musical style.
