Bella and the Bourbon Boys are a jazz quintet with a difference, performing a unique mix of modern rock and pop songs in a vintage jazz style.
You can even book a smaller line-up for daytime background music and then the full band for an evening party - giving you a fantastic day of entertainment at a fraction of the cost of booking two separate bands.

The band is particularly great for 1920s and Great Gatsby themed events, with their mix of Charlestons and blues covers providing a stunning musical backdrop to your corporate event or wedding reception.
Vintage Dancers (see booking options for more details)
Add extra class to your event with vintage dancers: The Strutters are a troupe of dancers who can teach your guests simple 1920s and 1940s dance moves before the band start performing. Once the band start, the dancers will get your guests up and dancing Charleston, Lindy hop and jive right from the first song - adding an amazing touch to your party. You can even book several pairs of dancers for a troupe performance with the live band.
