1930s Music Bands

Where are you looking to hire a 1930s Music Band?
Paul Whiteman and Ted Lewis forged the way as wildly popular bandleaders in the 1930s. Music of this era - both ballads and swing tunes - was soulful. What was once left to backrooms and basements now found its way into the mainstream, courtesy of Duke Ellington, Count Basie and other masters. Be aware that a full 1930s jazz band will normally consist of 12 to 15 musicians playing instruments ranging from saxophones, trumpets, trombones and percussion. However, for those who love 1930s music but can't accommodate the space requirements, a jazz combo is a fabulous alternative. Using only three or four instruments and a singer, this ensemble gives you an authentic 1930s jazz band sound in a much smaller setup. Gigmasters gives you all the details about each group, so you can hire the band that's right for you.
