Edinburgh Festival Fringe

Classic big band jazz and swing from across the ages, played by a very big band indeed – back for our regular slot at the Fringe. Join us for charts you'll love from Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Melba Liston and Duke Ellington, all the way to the present day, plus some more left-field choices. Dancing in the aisles is strongly encouraged, or sit back and be blown away by this wonderful, timeless music.
