Reviews of Swing Bands available in Memphis

5/5 from 722 reviews
Photo of Luis Alas & The All Star Funksters Luis Alas & The All Star Funksters "A few years ago I had reviewed Luis Alas' single, at that time I stated Luis was definitely one to keep an eye on. With his new song "You Mean Everything To Me" Luis has officially arrived. He has shown a level of musical maturity in his playing of any of the top names. He plays with intent, every note speaks and nothing is done as a filler, this is Smooth Jazz at its best. I can now say Luis is ready for the big stage and I know it won't be very long to see him at all the great festivals and events. This is a definite "must add" to any smooth jazz lover." Based in Atlanta, Georgia (337 miles from Memphis) Althea Turner - Smooth Jazz Magazine Photo of The Anthony S Experience The Anthony S Experience "Anthony and Jasmine was great to work with.  They were on time and flexible once a torrential downpour came and we had to adjust the run of show some.  They were even kind enough to let my strolling violinist use their gear when hers started acting up.   I would definitely recommend them and use them again if we are back in Atlanta!" Based in Hampton, Georgia (351 miles from Memphis) Jonna B. Thoma. CMP - American Association of Airport Executives Photo of Texas Gypsies Texas Gypsies "In a word... FABULOUS! These guys gave us just the sound we needed for our fun Prohibition-theme wedding. It is now two weeks later, and all we keep hearing is "Man, that band was fantastic!" They are worth the asking price (which is very reasonable to begin with!) Steve Curry is a great guy and very easy to deal with. I would recommend them without any reservations." Based in Dallas, Texas (420 miles from Memphis) Elizabeth A - Wedding Photo of The Ron Smolen Big Band / Orchestra The Ron Smolen Big Band / Orchestra "Wedding October 14 2023 - University Club - Chicago, IL Hi Ron, I've been meaning to shoot you an email. Thank you guys so much, we had such a wonderful time and were so happy and impressed with the music. With everything going on, there were 2 things about the wedding that made it stand out: the food and the band. Our guests loved the music and it was everything that we could have ever wanted and more. I really meant what I said about how cool it is that you all play this music and hopefully more people my age appreciate the work that you all do. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you. We visit Chicago pretty often so we'll keep tabs on when you play and will come say hello sometime soon. Hope you have a happy Thanksgiving! -Ryan & Angela" Based in Chicago, Illinois (481 miles from Memphis) Ryan Moorman - Private Wedding Photo of Andrew Thielen Big Band Andrew Thielen Big Band "WE were so glad we found Andrew Thielen Big Band. They are a real band that has been together for over twenty years perfecting their music, showmanship and dazzling variety of music that kept our dance floor jammed. WE almost got swayed into one of these chain bands called Empire something where they throw together bands for one night until we figured out you cannot be a 3 piece band one week and a 12 piece band the next. WE wanted a real band where the band leader has had repeat performances for the most discriminating buyers for years. Every age, everyones taste in music and our twenty something wedding party had the time of our life. Call them now for sensational singers, instrumentalists and organization." Based in Charleston, South Carolina (602 miles from Memphis) Aaron Hines - wedding reception Photo of Bradley Cohen Music Bradley Cohen Music "Had the pleasure hiring Bradley to perform at our wedding and it was the HIGHLIGHT of the night!!!! We’ve never been complimented so much on how fun our dance floor and background music was!" Based in Palm Coast, Florida (643 miles from Memphis) 7th October 2026 Michelle Daly - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

The average price for swing bands on Gig Heaven is $900, with rates from $220 to $2,800+. Cost varies based on the number of musicians, set length and the style of swing. Swing bands range from intimate jazz combos to large orchestras, and the size of the ensemble is the primary factor in pricing.

The swing bands for hire perform swing, big band jazz, jive, boogie-woogie and related styles from the 1930s through to the modern swing revival. Many bands offer a mix of vintage classics and contemporary songs performed in a swing style.

Typical bookings for swing bands include vintage-themed weddings, black-tie dinners, corporate events, cocktail parties, swing dance nights and gala celebrations. Swing music creates a sophisticated, energetic atmosphere that is perfect for dancing.

The swing bands on Gig Heaven range from small combos of three to five musicians up to full big band line-ups with horn sections and vocalists. A smaller group suits intimate settings, while a larger ensemble delivers the classic big band swing sound.

Most swing bands are self-contained and bring their own instruments, PA system and amplification. Larger ensembles may have specific staging requirements. It is worth confirming technical and space needs with the band before booking.

Swing is written for dancing and most bands build the set around it, varying the tempo so the floor stays busy rather than holding one pace all night. Several will run a short demonstration early on at events where guests do not know the steps. A floor area clear of tables makes far more difference to this than the size of the line-up.

Most perform in vintage-styled suits or dresses in keeping with the era, and many will match a black-tie or 1940s theme if asked. Some carry more than one look and will confirm which suits the occasion. Mentioning the theme when enquiring is usually enough, as it rarely affects the fee.

Most line-ups include one, and in smaller groups the singer often doubles on an instrument. Some acts are instrumental only, which works well for background playing but changes the feel once people want to dance. Profiles say which format each act offers and several can supply either.
