Throw the Best Company Event of the Year With the Help of Swing Bands for Hire

For this year's company celebration, you have been tasked to pick out the theme and the entertainment. Knowing that well-themed functions works well with most of the employees at work, you suggested a 1930s swing era theme and everyone thinks its fine. The only concern with having a 1930s concept is booking the best swing bands for hire to play outstanding swing music that shaped that era and it should be performed live flawlessly.

A highly seasoned swing band can be hired for different type of events like wedding reception, birthday parties, balls, reunion, and also corporate events much like the company party you help organize. A four to seven-piece band can be hired if you want everyone to dance while smaller functions like private parties and dinners, smaller bands playing light and easy music will do. Swing bands will usually showcase their talents in using a double bass, guitars, keyboard, horn and percussion section, which consists of the trumpet, saxophone and trombone.

The special event can kick off with a calm and soothing jazz lineup and Rat Pack-style songs like Lady is a Tramp, Fly me to the Moon and Come Fly with Me which reminds you the glory days of Frank Sinatra. You can also try jazz staples like Blue Moon, The Way you Look Tonight and Let's Face the Music and Dance. But nothing compares to playing classical favorites like Moondance, Swinging Down the Lane, In the Mood to entice partygoers to crowd on the dance floor. A skilled swing band should be familiar with swing songs of notable jazz singers of the 30s such as Count Basie, Tommy Dorsey, Artie Shaw, Ella Fitzgerald, Benny Goodman and many others and can get the audience off their seats and dance the night away!

The 1930s era was known for its energetic big band music genre, swing dance along with the sleek and distinctive Art Deco style that marked this decade. Make sure that invitees are aware of appropriate outfit to wear for the event. Women can wear smooth, flowing gowns, fur coats, beret and pearl necklaces while men would look dashing in vests, double-breasted suits and fedoras. Adorn the venue with motion pictures from that era and serve party drinks like whiskey sours, martinis or mint juleps.
