The Sound Of Seventeen Big Band: this is a band that plays regularly and as the name suggest is a seventeen piece outfit. A band of this size has not played at the Club in the past so this will be a new experience.
Greyfriars Society Orchestra: This band plays superbly swinging jazz, equally good for both listening and dancing. Expect three sets of live music with short intervals.
Ali Affleck’s Gin Mill Genies; be prepared for an evening of jazz and blues interpreted by Ali and har backing band. Be assured of a highly professional performance by one of today’s great vocalists
Mike Daly’s Rhythm Kings, Ian Boyter’s Joys of Swing, Bill Jones Renaissance Swing Band, Jerry Forde’s New Phoenix Jazz Band: these bands need no introduction and are very popular at the Club, especially with the swing dancers. Come along and listen and bring your friends with you.
