County Durham Jazz & Swing Band
JULY 2020
We are The Gershwin Gang – an outstanding but affordable County Durham jazz band that you can hire to play swing, Gatsby and 1920s music at weddings and private/corporate events.
Unlike the big agencies that provide expensive bands that have never been to Durham, we are an actual local band!
And we have reduced our normal prices to reflect the current situation – so feel free to us for a discounted quote.
Having a small outdoor garden party or event in the next few weeks? We are available to hire and we will of course maintain social distancing (we have face shields which we are happy to wear if you request us.)
Or for indoor parties later in the year in anticipation of lockdown restrictions being lifted.
In the event of pandemic lockdown all bookings are cancellable 7 days before the date of performance.
Comprising Durham and Bishop Auckland musicians.
We are a Gatsby band that plays music from the 1920s and ’30s (Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, Fred Astaire, Michael Buble, Nat King Cole) as well as more modern songs with a jazz twist.
20 years’ experience of performing at events just like yours in Durham, Bishop Auckland, Darlington and throughout County Durham e.g. weddings, parties and corporate events.
Playing music from the 1920s and ’30s we are the ideal Gatsby band for your Gatsby/1920s party. A ’20s band for the 2020s – what could be more appropriate?
Covering Durham, Bishop Auckland and Darlington – we also play in village halls, company offices, private homes and garden marquees across County Durham.
Ideal entertainment for large and small parties – from corporate events for 400+ guests to house parties for friends and family.
You can have our music played in the background to create ambience or we can liven things up for dancing – or both! Either way our 1920s’ Gatsby repertoire is ideal for themed parties (‘Peaky Blinders’, ‘Prohibition’, ‘Gin and Jazz’.)
We also play at funerals (ceremony/wake) and memorials – our music will brighten up an otherwise sad occasion.
