About

Step into the Limelight…

Limelight Live introduces Limelight - the perfect musical accompaniment to your evening. Choose from their range of top singers and musicians for a cool, fresh and sophisticated twist on classic jazz and swing hits. From a black-tie duo and dinner jazz, to a six piece band that will move your night, and your guests, onto the dance floor, Limelight have the right mix for you.

Limelight specialises in jazz and swing classics with a contemporary twist. They have been performing together for six years at corporate events, weddings, private parties and more. Proud of their high level of musicianship, their select pool of singers and musicians' credits include: BBC Proms, The Glenn Miller Orchestra, West End's 'The Rat Pack' and BBC Radio 2's 'Friday Night is Music Night'.

As well as their jazz and swing repertoire for receptions, Limelight also boast classically trained singers in their company who provide a beautiful and varied repertoire for wedding ceremonies - anything from 'Ave Maria' to 'Love is all Around'.

Where are they based?

The band are based in London, Surrey and East Sussex. They perform in all of these counties, and are happy to travel further afield.
