Biggish Band |
The Biggish Band is a fantastic and compact alternative to the full Big Band. This band performs all the same popular “swinging” numbers made famous by the Rat Pack, but the band is condensed down to a Jazz Octet, and so is great for people looking to hire a big band but have to work on a smaller budget. Fronted by a fantastic singer this band is a must for when you are looking for Live Jazz to dance to.
