MANCHESTER'S OWN SILK CITY JAZZ BAND
Sunday, September 6, 2026
4:00 PM
Old standards. New memories. The golden age of swing returns to Connecticut.
There is a reason these songs have never gone out of style. The Great American Songbook was built to last, and the Silk City Jazz Band plays it as they know it. Based in Manchester, Connecticut, this ensemble specializes in the music of the Big Band era: the swing standards, the timeless ballads, and the lively tunes that once filled the great dance halls and supper clubs of mid-century America.
The band takes its name from Manchester's storied past as the Silk City, home to the legendary Cheney Brothers mills that once made this town famous worldwide. That same pride in craft and local identity runs through every performance. This isn't background music. It is an event, full of charm, elegance, and infectious energy, that defined an era when a great orchestra could make an entire room move.
A night with the Silk City Jazz Band draws you in from the first note and brings the golden age of swing back to Connecticut, with the warmth and joy that have kept this music alive for a century.
This is a live Big Band jazz experience rooted in community, history, and the timeless appeal of the Great American Songbook.
Tap your feet, settle in, and let the music work its magic.
