The Garner Big Band is a large swing ensemble comprising some most exciting young musicians on the London Jazz Scene.
Their outstanding sets cover the music of the Great American Songbook, Jazz Classics and incorporate their own original arrangements together with New Orleans-inspired swing.
Available as a 6-piece ‘mini’ big band up to a full large swing band, they are widely regarded as one of the top jazz ensembles in London. With their innovative approach to musical arrangement, they have received critical acclaim from national press and celebrities alike.
Their rhythm section features some of the most prominent names in the UK Jazz Scene, who have crafted fresh and unique arrangements that breathe new life into classic melodies.
The band’s popularity has led to sold-out shows at venues such as Cadogan Hall, Pizza Express Jazz Club, and LouLou’s. Additionally, they hold residencies at some of Europe’s most exclusive clubs and hotels, including Soho House, Badrutt’s Palace in St Moritz, The Ritz, and Annabel’s Mayfair.
The band’s original music has also been featured on BBC Radio and other notable radio stations across Europe and the USA.
They have been delighted to collaborate on high-profile private events for Longines, Forbes, and Fendi (Milano fashion week) most recently with fashion designer Brunello Cucinelli for his summer collection show at the National Gallery.
