Jazz Band

The Gatsby Jazz Band are the all singing, all swinging heart of the party, getting everyone on the dance floor to Lindy hop, Jive and boogie the night away. With stunning three part harmonies, scorching horns lines and a rip roaring rhythm section, The Gatsby Jazz Band not only hark back to the Golden Age of Swing with music from the likes of Benny Goodman, Louis Prima and Louis Jordan (to name but a few) but also manage to modernise their repertoire playing the occasional top 10 in a vintage swing style. Featuring the finest musicianship from some of the countries best young jazz musicians, Flash Mob Jazz are a sure fire hit with everyone from those pesky kids of today, to the good old fashioned old timers!

Definitely a force to be reckoned with the “The Gatsby Jazz Band” members have collectively played for and supported such artists as “Gary Moore, Taio Cruz, Pendulum, damage and The Streets” played prolific venues such as “the 02 arena and Ronnie Scott’s”, worked in the studio for labels such as “Warner brothers and Mercury records” and performed as session musicians on TV shows including the X-factor.

Booking Flash Mob Jazz for our event took our evening from good to great. Our attendees absolutely loved the entertainment and the guys in the band were a joy to work with. I would highly recommend Flash Mob Jazz to any event organiser looking for top class entertainment from a very fun and very talented band.

Literally had the time of my life and that is hugely influenced by you guys putting on such a great show. Every single person has been raving about how good it was and I don’t think I’ve ever seen /will ever see a first dance as mad as that one! The whole place was jumping from start to finish. Huge amounts of fun that got everybody in the place swinging!

The day was amazing and you guys really made it! It couldn’t have been better. Everyone said the band were brilliant. My feet haven’t recovered from all the dancing. I’ll be recommending you to everyone and anyone. I’ve just been browsing photos and the conga was my highlight. So much fun.

Thank you so much for performing at our wedding. You were so helpful during the booking process and such a breeze to work with (always important during manic wedding preparations!) You all looked so very dapper, set the scene perfectly and every song you played was met by cheers from our guests. The dance floor was filled from the word go and the way you interacted with the guests was just super and such a personable touch. We have had so many wonderful comments from friends and family, who marvelled at your incredible musicianship. We cannot thank you enough.
