About this Act

The original and most popular Strictly Smokin' ensemble. This is the real deal - a full 19 piece big band with two vocalists. Everything from Rat Pack to Ella to Miller or Basie and everything in between. If there is some special music you would like performing, they'll do their best to source it for you.

For smaller affairs but still playing all the same music as the 19 piece they can go out as an 8 or 12 piece act.
