Our annual fund-raiser banquet needed some “classy” music with some variety. We have always booked live music, but the last couple of years had not gone very well. This band really took us to the next level and really cared about our audience. They even wanted our input on stage volume and “break music” – they were very thoughtful to get us just what we needed for our special event.

Corporate & gala feedback
The Classic Swing Band was a hit at the Navarro College’s recent “Brilliance” scholarship fundraising gala in Midlothian. They are a great group of men to work with. They are organized regarding contract requirements, expectations, details for set-up, etc. Their instrumentation is fantastic and their vocalists are great, too. They are a classy and professional crowd pleaser! They provide a pleasant ambience for any event that requires background music or entertainment.

Performance options
The Classic Swing Band will serenade your guests throughout the night — with brilliant twists on classics that give your corporate event that extra something special.
Whether you need a compact ensemble for cocktails and networking or a full-stage band for awards, dancing, and photo moments, we scale lineup, attire, and volume to your run-of-show. Sets are paced so conversation stays easy during dinner, then energy lifts naturally when it is time to dance — swing and ballroom favorites alongside variety hits your mixed-age crowd recognizes.
- Formats: Small combos up through full big-band instrumentation (horns, rhythm section, vocals), matched to room size, budget, and production footprint.
- Flow: Instrumental or low-key vocal coverage during meals and presentations; featured vocal sets when you want the room to move.
- Production: Professional reinforcement coordinated with your venue or AV partner; we arrive rehearsed and dressed for black-tie galas or business programs.
