We are delighted to be part of the Retro Americana Weekend at Pittville Park and Pump Room. A 1940s evening filled with fabulous nostalgic Swing Music from Big R Big Band. Get In The Mood and join us at this wonderful venue which was used during the Second World War to house British and American Army personnel. Vintage Dress encouraged.
Led by Bristol's best dressed drummer, the 16 piece Big R Big Band are firm favourites with the Bristol swing dance crowd. Frequent performers at the Slapstick and Harbourside festivals, as well as the regular Bristol swing events that happen in the city, Big R can also be found swinging across the rest of the West Country. Dashing, debonair, dandy and dapper, the classic swing tunes of the 30's and 40's are looking, and sounding, pretty damn good.
First formed in 2010, playing classic Big Band music, in particular the swing music of the 30's and 40's. Now well established across the country as one of the best swing dance big bands you can hear the music of Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Artie Shaw, Benny Goodman, and many many more, played as it was back when it was first played: as dance music.
