Now established as one of the UK’s favourite dance big bands, Big R are facilitators of SWING.
Led from the front by Bristol's best dressed drummer, Richie Paradise, the 16 piece band have a great eye for dance charts and will keep the dance floor busy, reading the crowd and adapting sets as necessary.
So if you’re a lunatic for Lindy, go soft for Shag, bellow for Balboa, desperate for some Duke, or begging for Basie, Big R have got you covered.
This band are Savoy savvy.
Dashing, debonair, dandy and dapper, the classic swing tunes of the 30's and 40's are sounding, and looking, pretty damn good.
