Description

The Ambassadors Big Band was formed in 1957 in the Ann Arbor area. The 17 or 18-member swing band continues to excite audiences with their unique arrangments of great standard swing tunes and newer tunes in a swing style. We also perform ballroom dance music including; Latins, waltzes, etc., on request. We are one of the few big bands to still feature not only solo male, and female vocalists, but a vocal quartet, 'The Diplomats'.

This group is wonderful for Weddings, Dances, and Outdoor concerts and Festivals.
