About this vendor
Elegant ballroom dance music of Cole Porter, Gershwin, Rogers&Hart (Sinatra loved these), and tight arrangements from Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Ellington, etc. (plus some fun rock 'n roll if desired). Tight, together sound, good energy, and sensible volume levels that let people talk.

I always wanted a swing band for my wedding and even though it put us a little over budget, we decided to make it work. I will never regret that because the Joe Holmes Swing Band ...
was fantastic. I wanted to dance to every song. They do a great mix of upbeat and slow songs, and Joe is a charming emcee. He is also really easy to work with.
They also arranged music for the cocktail hour and ceremony. The day before the wedding I realized we had never done any selecting of music for the ceremony and decided in the interest of time to just cross my fingers and hope for the best. The flute & classical guitar music was beautiful. All of the musicians really know their stuff and Joe feels like someone you can simply put your trust in. We couldn't be happier!
