At the core of the agency is our large selection of bands. These versatile ensembles specialize in jazz and swing but can provide special repertoire, requests and even classical music for the wedding ceremony.
The size of the bands may be varied to suit your occasion.
The standard quartet consists of:
Drums are advised if dancing is part of the event, but may not be necessary if the music is to serve as background.
Generally trios are the preferred size for smaller events and a quartet or larger band for events in a large space or events with many guests.
For special occasions the 9 to 17-member Lisa Goodman Big Band offers classic swing era music.
Some of the band leaders also perform as vocalists. Additional vocalists of your choice may be added to any of the band (see vocalists page)
