Formed during the big band era, today’s version of Big Band Atlanta brings back memories of a slower pace reminiscent of the 1930’s and 40’s when the big bands of Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, Gene Krupa, Artie Shaw, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Cab Calloway, Fletcher Henderson, Glenn Miller and countless others pioneered the great sounds that still sound great today. Relive what it was like to be a teenager dancing to the sounds of your favorite band coming from the radio or the jukebox in the corner cafe.
Big Band A
Big Band Atlanta is an eighteen piece big band that swings in a style of an era when band leaders and their soloists were the kings and princes of swing. If you like ballroom dancing to foxtrot, Latin, and waltz beats, Big Band Atlanta is going to get you to jump, jive, and wail like so many generations before have.
