1950s Era Musicians & Bands for Hire in United States

"We booked WOW- We're One World for our fundraising gala event and they put on an amazing show. The mix of music was great, the band was professional and sounded so solid. They showed up in full glam attire to our elevated event. Communication was easy and we really enjoyed hosting them. Our crowd was enjoying dancing and singing along to all the songs through the night and gave great reviews. We are booking them again for our event this year!"

"American Jazz Company did a great job at our fundraising Gala. Dan was very easy to work with and accommodating on our timeline at the event. The communication leading up to the event for planning and reviewing the set list was great. They checked with us and were willing to modify and make recommendations with a large portfolio to create a set list geared towards our guests. Everything was on time and in order which made coordination easy."

"The Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art have used free outdoor jazz programs to draw the public to their facilities, but representatives of the museums say that this summer sparked a banner year in terms of attendance. “It was incredible,” said Dorrance Stalvey, director of music programs at LACMA. “We had upward of 2,000 people at some shows.” The museum--in its fourth year of offering jazz on a weekly basis-presented such artists as Horace Tapscott, Dr. Art Davis and Cecilia Coleman at its Friday evening shows, and big bands led by Bill Berry, Gerald Wilson and Bill Holman on Sunday afternoon programs. “This program was by far the most successful we’ve had,” said Dawn Setzer, spokesperson for MOCA. “We averaged about 1,500 people a show,” a figure up considerably from previous years’ events. Setzer said the primary reason for the increased turnout was the high-profile strictly-jazz lineup, presented on 11 consecutive Thursdays, that included Charles McPherson, Billy Higgins and Teddy Edwards. LACMA continues its Friday evening shows throughout the year, currently spotlighting a retrospective of bands that have played there, plus new acts. ‘Trane Time: The annual John Coltrane Festival takes place tonight at 8 at the World Stage, 4344 Degnan Blvd. in Leimert Park. On tap will be Ravi Coltrane, Dr. Art Davis’ estimable quintet with Doug Webb and Phil Vieux, and others. Information: (213) 293-2451. Davis will also appear at a benefit for Better Advantages for Students and Society (BASS), which awards a scholarship in his name. The event takes place on Sunday, 4 to 7 P.M., at Diva, 600 Anton Blvd., Costa Mesa."

"Nancy's talent as a singer is remarkable, with a voice that is both calming and heavenly. Her stunning vocals make for an amazing addition to our resort, delivering intimate performances that leave our guests thoroughly entertained. We extend our heartfelt thanks for her contribution!"

"I'm incredibly grateful to Kars and his band for making our evening truly special. Our dinner guests were impressed by both the performance and the professionalism of the band. The entire experience, from the initial contact to the performance itself, was seamless and enjoyable."

"The performance was absolutely outstanding. Everything was arranged professionally, and the music created a sophisticated atmosphere that perfectly matched our event. We received many compliments from our guests."
