Kevin's Jazz Swing Band
Kevin is a versatile jazz singer/songwriter/bandleader from London with a captivating stage presence, celebrated by jazz critics for his natural sense of swing. His musicians are also top-notch (praised by Jazzwise Magazine, the UK's leading jazz authority, as “the cream of UK straight-ahead jazz musicians”) and are carefully chosen for their extensive experience in the event/wedding/function sector at all levels. Kevin has enjoyed sold-out shows with his band at the world-famous Ronnie Scott’s, recently released a critically acclaimed jazz album, was featured on Jazz FM with a live one-hour concert, performs at some of the UK’s best jazz clubs, appeared at several jazz festivals, and headlined in Athens in concert with the pioneers of the Greek jazz scene, The Dimitris Kalantzis Quartet. He’s also entertained royalty twice and has been booked by many celebrities and sports stars for important private gigs.
Clients can choose from a vast repertoire from the American Songbook: everything from hot 20s jazz Charleston style, through 30s favorites, 40s swing and jive, 50s/60s swing and rat pack, right up to modern swing like Michael Buble, and contemporary cool jazz. By also adding a touch of jazzed-up, swinging re-works of pop classics too, Kevin’s Jazz Swing Band is the perfect group for weddings, parties, or corporate events. For vintage themes, the band can change outfits to match a different era in the second set, such as starting with 1920s jazz age attire and switching to rat pack style for the second set. Kevin's Jazz Swing Band is particularly impressive with just piano and upright bass backing for more intimate events: perfect for wedding breakfasts, drink receptions, garden parties, and soirées – a delightful finishing touch that will leave a lasting impression on your guests.
