Skidoo |
 |
| 52
Skidoo are a three piece Harlem swing band that have turned
back the clock to play the dazzling repertoire of Fats
Waller in the style for which it was written. Classic
favourites like ‘Ain’t Misbehavin‘,
‘The Joint is Jumpin’ and ‘Your Feet’s
Too Big’ are carefully woven into lesser known Waller
hits like ‘Dinah’ , ‘S’pozin’
and ‘I’m Crazy ’bout My Baby’
to create an authentic 1920/30’s Harlem party atmosphere.
They bring back to life the forgotten era of prohibition,
speakeasy’s, Vaudeville, tin pan alley, rent parties,
stride piano and hot jazz. |

Café
Society is a four piece band specialising in Jazz, Dixieland
and hot 20's music. Café Society will enhance any
event . They are available acoustically or with full amplification
and are presented in several different dress styles. As
light background music they will set a happy tone. If
playing during a meal, Café Society has proved
to be an excellent aid to digestion. Weddings are another
popular engagement, we would go as far to say that any
wedding which hires Café Society can almost guarantee
a more than successful day, reception and honeymoon! They
can adapt to almost any event, from shopping centres,
garden fetes, piers and grand openings to entertaining
celebrities of stage and screen at The National Theatre,
our blend of cheerful rhythmic tunes and expert professionalism
never go unnoticed. They also have a Cabaret element.
With a mixture of lively music, audience participation
and devastating humour, They take you on a musical meander
down memory lane with tributes to such stars as Al Jolson,
Noël Coward and even George Formby. In short, Café
Society is every band you will ever need (in our unbiased
opinion!). |
