WEDDINGS

There is nothing classier and more appealing to all generations than our swing orchestra playing timeless American big band music. We guarantee that you will see kids, teens, adults and seniors on the dance floor all at the same time!

FUNDRAISERS

We enjoy supporting good causes and have worked with organizations such as the Jimmy Fund, March of Dimes, and the Melanoma Foundation of New England. Red Sox wives Kelli Pedroia, Bertha Lowell, Jacque Francona, and Rhonda Mills loved us!

CONCERTS

Whether it's an indoor concert for hundreds of people or an outdoor concert for thousands, they won't be seated for long once we start swinging! We have performed outdoors on the Boston Common, in the North End, at the Prudential, and at the Crane Estate in Ipswich (pictured above with 2000 people).

SCHOOL DANCES

We know how to entertain college and high school students. They are the same age as us and we know what they like. In addition to our high school fans from Westford and Lexington, we have performed for students at Boston College, Babson, Olin, UNH, MIT, and Clark.

Dance Lessons

Although it's not necessary to know how to swing dance in order to enjoy our big band music and dance to it, as a fun and educational option we can have one or two swing dance instructors come to your event and give your guests a group lesson. We are so well connected to the Boston swing dance scene that we know all the best dance instructors, many of whom also happen to be national competition champions. They can also organize fun activities on the dance floor, as well as dance with any reluctant guests and make them look like experts!

For weddings, if you and your fiancé want to take a crash course in ballroom or swing dancing in preparation for your first dance, we can have you looking like pros in no time! Whether it be with simple moves like turns and dips, or exhilirating ones like lifts and backflips, you are the stars of the night and we will make sure your dancing attests to that!

Other Music Options

In addition to the big band, we can provide other musical elements that you might require for your event. We are so well connected to hundreds of young, talented musicians who are eager to perform, that we can offer almost any type of musical group you may have in mind. And because our pool of musicians is so large, just like our pool of big band members, you never have to worry about a musician or group canceling on an event due to unforeseen circumstances. We have plenty of qualified musicians who are always on standby and are ready to jump in even at a minute's notice!

Here are some examples:

Any of the above groups can be hired for an event independent of the big band, in those cases where the Beantown Swing Orchestra is not needed.
