Decent Chaps Jazz & Swing

Decent Chaps professional quartet play nationwide - jazz, swing, Latin, Ratpack, jump-jive, boogie-woogie, 1920s-1940s

Decent Chaps quartet has played for Jimmy Carr, Geoff Whiting, Hattie Hayridge, Richard Herring, Kate Adie, Richard Baker, Freddie Flintoff, Nick Owen to name but a few and play nationwide at many weddings /civil partnerships, birthday /cocktail /dinner /garden parties, balls and civic and corporate functions. Our repertoire (attached) includes Jazz, Swing, Latin-American, Jump-Jive and Ratpack and is excellent for both background and for dancing later in the evening. The instrumentation comprises clarinet, saxophones, flute, piano, vocals, backing vocals, string bass, guitar and drums and we have our own stage lighting. The Chaps always wear full tuxedo, with wing-collared shirts or if the weather is very hot, matching waistcoats and bow ties (also with wing-collared shirts).
We also offer a free service in that if a special piece of music you would like – (eg for the First Dance) – is not in our repertoire, I will do my best to find it and Alan will arrange it for the band. You can listen to some of the tracks from our album on http://soundcloud.com/decent-chaps /sway
