The Works Band - Party, Motown,
Soul, Swing...
 
The Works Band
are a truly versatile function band based in Yorkshire.
This highly experienced band offers arrangments up to
a full live 7 piece band (female lead vocalist, Hammond
organ, piano, saxophone, flute, guitar, bass, drums,
bongos, and three backing singers). No backing tracks
or other production gimmicks are to be found in their
own inimitable arrangements of great soul, blues and
pop tunes. Their wide-ranging repertoire includes jazz
and swing tunes by the likes of Frank Sinatra and Nina
Simone as well as soul and motown numbers from Aretha
Franklin, Stevie Wonder and James Brown. The band are
quite capable of blowing the roof off any party or providing
relaxed intimate background music for drinks receptions.
This group of extremely versatile and experienced musicians
can customise their repertoire and appearance to suit
an event. Aside from their regular set of up-tempo soul,
blues and funk numbers they can be hired as a smaller
3 or 4 piece jazz band (with or without vocals). This
version of the band known as Fine & Mellow can supply
mainstream jazz swing and bebop, or more laid back sophisticated
"cocktail" jazz. The Works holds up to date
Public Liability insurance.
