When planning music for an event, perhaps the most important question is: Shall we hire music for relaxing or for dancing, for background music, or a show, or a combination?
Familiar Jazz standards from the American Songbook and Latin sounds from the South American Songbook are perfect for dinner music and relaxing. For more upbeat jazz and swing, we dive deep into the Swing era of the 1940s which is a time when our ancestors turned to music for celebration and an abstraction from the world of war they facd.
The London Swing and Soul Band is a collection of outstanding musicians and singers who enjoy performing the most colourful set of songs imaginable.
