Welcome!
With lots of brass, a little sass, and plenty of pizzazz, the award-winning George Lake BIG Band would be happy to swing for you sometime soon. Their finely tuned repertoire draws on the timeless appeal of the greats; Glenn Miller, Duke Ellington, Artie Shaw and arrangements by modern swing artists like The Cherry Poppin’ Daddies and The Brian Setzer Orchestra. This distinctive blend has given the George Lake Big Band a unique style that continues to win fans from every generation. Simply put, they can really swing!

We’ll be there in all our sartorial splendour and the good news is that we’ve moved to our summer jazz casual wardrobe. We’ll be rolling out some new tunes along with our repertoire of classics from Herman, Basie, Kenton, Ellington and Miller. Great central location, food and entertainment rolled into one package. Remember that we are now ISO certified as a “Justin Bieber free” orchestra!
