Portsmouth Jazz & Swing Bands

Jazz Singers and Jazz Bands in Portsmouth

There are so many varieties of jazz, it's almost impossible to sum up without getting into the finer details of sub-genre. Have a look at our Portsmouth jazz bands' profiles and you'll see the extensive selection of trad jazz, cool jazz, contemporary jazz, Django Reinhardt-influenced gypsy jazz, Dixieland jazz, swing from the 1920s and 30s and jazz standards from the Great American Songbook composed by George Gershwin and Irving Berlin. Keep your eyes and ears peeled also for the jazzy renditions of Status Quo, Michael Jackson, Daft Punk and Lady Gaga hits our jazz bands in Portsmouth may have snuck in.

Jazz singers are in a league of their own – the feeling that goes behind those meandering melodies is a force to be reckoned with, and always makes for a fantastic performance. Our local jazz singers, backed by our Portsmouth jazz bands, are dedicated disciples of such legends of the jazz genre as Nat King Cole, Louis Armstrong, Amy Winehouse, Frank Sinatra, Etta James and many other iconic voices.
