North East Big Band

This is the slightly smaller version of the Strictly Smokin' Big band, playing all the same repertoire, but in an ensemble that is better suited to a smaller venue.

With a repertoire ranging from Duke Ellington to Gordon Goodwin via Buddy Rich, Bob Mintzer, Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra - there's something for everyone.

The Band boasts some of the North East's finest musicians. They rehearse and perform on a regular basis and there is a constant investment into new material to give a fresh sound each time you hear them.

Also available:

The Strictly Smokin’ Big Band

The original and most popular Strictly Smokin’ ensemble. This is the real deal - a full 19 piece big band with two vocalists.

The Strictly Smokin’ Tiny Big Band

We love big bands, but we also know that 20 musicians for your function is not always practical (or cost effective).

The Strictly Smokin’ Soul Band

This storming 8 piece group plays the best grooves from 1960's through to now.
