Combined with a meticulously crafted music library covering everything from Frank Sinatra to Harry Connick, Jr; Ella Fitzgerald to Michael Bublé, the Vintage 15 soars over the competition with a swagger unlike any other big band out there.

As comfortable performing with a spare two-piece combo as he is with a full orchestra, he possesses an effortless poise that many performers take decades to develop.

"This band knows how to really swing-we LOVE them! They are definitely not some old fuddy duddies left over from the original era of this music (like most other big bands). They were punctual, very polite, and just always fun to be around.”
