Join in and dance with the Creole sounds of a quartet or singalong with a razzamatazz trio.
The Brass Band
Catch the flavour of New Orleans: Mardi Gras! Street Parades! Festival time! Jambalaya’s marching band is perfect for carnivals, outdoor functions, processions or stage presentations. Seasoned with star musicians who have played in New Orleans itself, the band brings the thrilling sound of Mardi Gras to any event. We can provide a full presentation with Grand Marshall, dancers and umbrella-waving ‘second line’, or a smaller band for the more intimate function. Our swinging sounds and musical stars have enlivened steam rallies, store openings, conferences, international festivals.
The Jazzmen
Dixieland takes to the streets! Our small group, drawn from the brass band, is designed to be mobile. Our wandering minstrels have brought a touch of excitement to shopping malls, restaurants, theme parks and events like the Soho International Jazz Festival. The keynote is mobility. No sound systems, no stage sets: we make our music where you want it! Our eyecatching uniforms will bring colour and class to your event.
The New Orleans Band and The Trio
Playing the classic hits of jazz greats like Kid Ory and Jelly Roll Morton, our New Orleans band recreates the golden age of jazz. We play for dancing, for concerts or we can provide a complete evening’s entertainment with our ‘band-within-a-band’: the Jambalaya trio. Soft mood music from the piano or the trio as your guests arrive – light entertainment for your diners – hot dance music to finish the evening with everyone clamouring for more! We provide a full entertainment package for weddings, conventions, theatres and we have packed venues from London’s 100 Club, the home of traditional jazz, to the Institute of Chartered Accountants in the City of London!
The London Ragtime Orchestra
Many of Jambalaya’s top professionals are drawn from the internationally famous London Ragtime Orchestra. This band needs no introduction – its spectacularly successful career has taken it to top international festivals, many of Europe’s great theatres, appearances on BBC TV, 3 albums, and regular sell-out appearances at London’s Barbican and South Bank concert halls. Why not book the LRO for your prestige event, and recapture the swinging sounds of Scott Joplin?
Jambalaya offers the complete musical package for parties, clubs, promotions, concerts, festivals, weddings, parades, dances, receptions, conferences. Satisfied customers include:
Grosvenor Theatrical Productions (Trusthouse Forte), B & Q DIY Superstores, Old Orleans Restaurants, Norman Meadmore Concerts Ltd and many, many more.
“We thoroughly enjoyed the band on Saturday! They were fantastic.”
