The "CRAZY RHYTHM HOT SOCIETY ORCHESTRA" is an
11-piece 1920s Dance Orchestra. They play the Big Band music of 1920-1934. The
"hot" jazz as well as the sweet music and the novelty numbers of the period. The
band plays note-for-note transcriptions from the original 78 rpm recordings of
the "Roaring Twenties". The instrumentation is authentic and so is the
interpretation. They have several male vocalists and a vocal trio within the
band, plus the beautiful and talented vocalist, Miss Ginger Pauley and the
handsome Jeff Gilbert (the "Last Crooner"). They're the Cat's Meow! Hotcha
Razzmatazz!
The CRHSO recreates the nostalgic
recordings of the great bands of the Jazz Age (Jean Goldkette,
California Ramblers, Ray Noble, Luis Russell, McKinneys Cotton
Pickers, Gus Arnheim, Paul Whiteman, Benny Moten, Jack Payne, Jack
Hylton, Fletcher Henderson, Duke Ellington, Ben Selvin, Coon-Sanders
Nighthawks, Ben Pollack, et al) and the vocalists of the period (Al
Jolson, Bing Crosby, the Boswell Sisters, the Rhythm Boys, Al Bowly,
Blanche Calloway, Ruth Etting, Eddie Cantor, Annette Hanshaw, Sophie
Tucker, Russ Columbo, Bessie Smith, Helen Kane, Rudy Valle, et al.).
The CRAZY RHYTHM HOT SOCIETY ORCHESTRA
is a perfect choice for a Roaring Twenties Party or a Gatsby Party.
Imagine the possibilities: the band and
the guests all in 1920s attire (flapper dresses, helmet hats,
fedoras, boas, beads, spats, suspenders, etc...). The men with
slicked back hair, the women with spit curls. The images of the
speakeasy, hip flasks, marathon dances, art deco, rumble seats,
candlestick telephones, Tiffany lamps, bathtub gin, all stir the
imagination with ideas for a truly memorable party. Most caterers
can arrange for all of these kinds of props.
To add even more fun to the party, the
CRHSO can provide dance instructions for period dances, such as the
Charleston, Black Bottom, Lindy Hop, Shag, Balboa and others.
This 1920s Dance Orchestra is the
correct style of band for such a party. The CRHSO would
authentically and sensationally recapture the ambiance of the
Roaring Twenties.
The Crazy Rhythm Hot Society Orchestra
is not only ready to play all of the styles of the Jazz Age, but it
would also be possible for you to break it down into a smaller
category of the 1920s sound. For example a Speakeasy theme or the
Cotton Club or an elegant tea dance, etc...
