Straight Ahead Big Band
Doors open at 5pm
Straight Ahead Big Band is very happy to be playing at The Duke of George for the first time. The songs will include many well-known instrumental and vocal jazz standards from the 40’s Swing era such as In The Mood, String of Pearls and Stomping At The Savoy through to big band jazz and blues pieces from the books of Count Basie, Duke Ellington and Buddy Rich, Shiny Stockings, Satin Doll, Love For Sale and Alright OK You Win...This will be followed by funk, latin and original pieces from contemporary artists and by the band itself. Of course big band music isn’t complete without swingin vocals from the greats of the genre, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and Michael Buble to name a few performed by our vocalists Victoria and Mark!
There’ll be loads of big band music for everyone, simply sit back and listen or feel free to hit the dance floor!
