High Street Swing Band from Portland, OR

High Street is a show band that not only has aesthetic appeal but the solid musicianship to go with it. One of the Northwest's most entertaining bands, their repertoire includes cover songs and originals in a mixture of swing, blues, R&B, latin, oldies and ballads. They have a brand new CD of original tunes published by Ambiance Records. High Street's nine member band has been playing professionally for more than ten years and consists of Stuart Dennis, keyboard/manager; Randy McKellip, saxophone; and Bruce Wehler; drums; along with Tom Dale, trombone/vocal; Paul Harman, bass; Erik Larson, trumpet; Shane Powers, trumpet/vocal; Matt Summers, vocal/percussion; and Bruce West, guitar/vocal. High Street's performances include the Atlantic Dance in Walt Disney World, Boise River Festival, the Boise 2000 Millennium Show, the Governor's Inaugural Gala Concert, and many other national and regional festivals and fundraisers. Most recently they were the showcase band for the International Festivals & Events Association Convention at Bally's in Las Vegas. A couple of comments on High Street: "High Street is a 'must see'. The musicians have a ball, put on a great show, and their music is infectious to crowds of all ages..." The Idaho Statesman "High Street was a highlight of our IFEA International Convention in Las Vegas. It's not easy to impress an industry of special event professionals, who have 'been there and done that' when it comes to entertainment, but High Street had the place jumpin' with their special brand of high energy, high quality showmanship. We continue to hear praise for their performance from our members around the world." Steven Wood Schmader, President/CEO International Festivals & Events Association
