More Than a Band — an Atmosphere

The best private parties have a world of their own. Whether you're imagining a champagne-soaked Gatsby affair, a candlelit supper club, or a 1950s sock hop in the garden, we bring the music, wardrobe, and showmanship that make guests feel they've stepped into another era.

We perform at private estates, clubs, restaurants, and backyards across Southern California, scaling from an intimate trio to the full ensemble with horns.

Gatsby & Speakeasy Parties

Hot jazz, flapper styling, and Art Deco flair — the full Roaring Twenties, realized. Our signature theme.

Milestone Birthdays & Anniversaries

A celebration soundtrack shaped around the guest of honor, from the era they love to the songs that tell their story.

Casino Nights & Themed Dinners

Vintage Vegas cool with Rat Pack swagger — the perfect score for card tables, cocktails, and after-dinner dancing.

A Vintage Centerpiece

Period wardrobe, elegant staging, and a live focal point your guests will photograph all night — the band becomes part of the party's look.

Estates & Intimate Venues

Professional PA scaled to the space, guest-friendly volume, and a setup that respects your home or venue.

A Curated Flow

Cocktail elegance to dance-floor energy, timed to your evening — with curated break music so the mood never dips.

Past venue credits include Disney's Club 33, The Hollywood Roosevelt, Vibrato Grill Jazz, The Cicada Club, Spago Beverly Hills, Disneyland, and Carnegie Hall — with regular appearances aboard The Queen Mary in Long Beach.

Good to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you provide different ensemble sizes?

Yes. From an intimate trio for cocktail hours and dinners to the full Carnations ensemble with horns for a featured performance, we'll recommend the configuration that suits your space, guest count, and atmosphere.

Can guests dance to the music?

Please do! Our swing, Rat Pack, and 1950s sets are built for dancing, and we read the room to keep the floor moving all night.

Do you perform Gatsby and 1920s themes?

Yes — Gatsby and speakeasy events are a signature. We bring era-true hot jazz, flapper-era wardrobe, and Art Deco styling that make a Roaring Twenties theme feel fully realized rather than costume-party thin.

Can you learn a special song for our event?

We're happy to discuss special requests — a first dance, a favorite standard, a song that matters to your family or company. Share it in your inquiry and we'll let you know what's possible for your date.

How do we get a quote?

Send an inquiry with your date, venue or city, guest count, and the atmosphere you're imagining — elegant background, lively dance set, or a full vintage theme. We'll reply promptly with availability and a proposal tailored to your event.
