About us

That Big Band is a powerhouse of Live Big Band music, bringing dramatic repertoire, rich harmonies, and spectacular musicianship to audiences across the UK. Formed by a collective of passionate, professional musicians, we’re dedicated to keeping the big band tradition alive — not as nostalgia, but as a thrilling, modern live experience. From iconic swing classics to bold contemporary arrangements, our sound is full, vibrant, and unmistakably ours.

We perform at theatres, festivals, jazz clubs, and private events nationwide, delivering shows that combine precision, personality, and genuine musical joy. Whether you’re joining us at one of our Live Big Band gigs or looking for Big Band Hire UK for your wedding, corporate event, or celebration, we bring the same commitment to quality and atmosphere. As a Jazz Big Band UK, we pride ourselves on creating unforgettable moments — the kind of performances that stay with audiences long after the final note.
