Big Band, Jazz, Swing, Dixieland, Solo Trumpet, Brass Quartet... we do it all and do it all VERY well.

The John Clark Big Band as well as my smaller 'Little Big Band' play the swinging jazz sounds of the big band era, performing compositions that span an entire century of music, including the classics made famous by Glenn Miller, Jimmy and Tommy Dorsey, Count Basie, Harry James, Artie Shaw and Benny Goodman as well those by more contemporary arrangers like Sammy Nestico, Tom Kubis and Gordon Goodwin. We can also provide "themed" tributes to Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Count Basie, Harry James and Glenn Miller.

If you are looking for a small jazz combo I can provide my "New Vintage Jazz Combo" comprised of 2 to 7 pieces.

Like Dixieland music? My group "The Dixie Stompers" can provide lively dixieland music for your next event!

All of our bands have been performing concerts, dances and weddings to crowds large and small in the New Jersey/Philly/Delaware areas since the early 80's.

The leader, John Clark, spent time on the road with the Glenn Miller Orchestra and has been performing locally for more than 30 years!

Our bands are comprised of world-class professional musicians from the Atlantic City/Philadelphia areas so you can be assured of the best quality music for your event. These musicians have worked with some of the greatest talent in the world including: Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Tony Bennett and Rosemary Clooney to name just a few.

• They were wonderful! Everyone loved them. I just wish we had them longer than we did. They were very accommodating to requests and let me use my iPod for use through their speakers while they took their breaks. They were great and I hope to hear them play again! And they were also very reasonably priced...we definately got our money's worth! -- Aileen L, Newark, DE, 7/20/2008
