The Washboard Syncopators Jazz Band Description
The Washboard Syncopators have been playing hot jazz for more than 50 years and are still entertaining crowds at jazz clubs, jazz /beer festivals, concerts, receptions, weddings and private parties.
The bands repertoire includes most styles of jazz and dance music from the Roaring Twenties and Swinging Thirties from marches, stomps, ballads and blues of New Orleans to the small bank swing of Harlem.
Although we can raise the roof with the best we are also able to play quietly as background for dinners or receptions if required.
We are a seven piece band plus vocalist and feature cornet, reeds, trombone, bass, banjo, piano and percussion.
Our PA equipment can also be used for your speeches and announcements.
Charges vary depending on the day of the week and length of the function. Terms are strictly cash payable at time of function.
