Description
I tend to do two sets of an hour each. The first is a gentle introduction with jazz standards which slowly moves up through the gears and finishes with a lively swing number giving the audience a taste of whats to come.
The second, I tend to open with " Feelin Good" which grabs the audience attention with the powerful vocal. Now I move onwards and upwards through the full on swing & big band sounds with songs from Louis Prima, Sinatra, Buble and Tony Christie and even a couple of Tom Jones big hits to get the crowd on their feet.
