Formed in 2005 in London, the Liquid Strings Big Band features the traditional big band line-up of five saxophones, four trombones, four trumpets, a rhythm section of piano, drums, bass and guitar, plus fantastic female vocalist, Sarah.
Over the past three years the band has played gigs throughout London and the home counties, notably at the 100 Club's popular Stompin' night, famous jazz venue the Bull's Head in Barnes and the Bethnal Green Working Men's Club in the East End. They have also played dance balls for Jive Party at the beautiful Rivoli Ballroom, Ginger Jive in Berkshire and Jive.com in Hertfordshire, as well as charity balls, weddings, the Art Car Boot Fair and the Southbank Centre.
The band covers a wide range of music from swing classics through to Latin, jazz, funk and pop styles. For a wedding, 1940s dance night, Christmas party, celebration or corporate event, they are happy to tailor their set list to suit your requirements. See below for Current Set List. Whatever the occasion, the LS Big Band guarantee good music and a great atmosphere.
The band can provide their own PA and sound system, if there is not one available at the venue - call Brian on 07958 031797 for more information.
