Night & Day's wonderful live swing and big band music will
enliven and energize your event without overwhelming it. We play the classic
songs of Gershwin, Cole Porter, Glen Miller, Duke Ellington, etc., with a flair
and style that can only come from a love of the music. You'll recognize the
great tunes made popular by Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, and Harry
Connick Jr., among others. Your foot will be
tapping, but you'll still be able to hold a conversation.
Night & Day can rock as
well as swing! When your event really gets going, we won't let you
down. We'll perform the oldies and classic rock you love with the same
energy and gusto as our swing.
A note about the above: we're experts at
reading your crowd and sensing when it's time to switch from one style to
another. When it's time to move from swing to rock, or from a slow dance
to a fast dance, we're right on top of it.
The chart below offers some descriptions of
our dance ensembles. You'll find we're very flexible in terms of
accommodating your special needs in dancing and listening.

The music you will hear
below is a small sample of the live dance music that we would perform at a typical
dance event in the Washington, D.C. area, including Maryland and Virginia.
Whether your guests prefer swing dancing, ballroom dancing, or just like to
move to the beat of Disco and Motown, youll find these styles covered in the
demos below.
When the band plays at an actual wedding,
corporate function, or special event, our repertoire is much broader than what
you will hear below. A complete Night & Day songlist is
here and an
additional set of band demos with longer versions of your favorite dance music
is here.
You will need to have at least a
28.8 modem and the RealPlayer plug-in, which is available here:
Please note that, along with the demos described above, there are
also video clips of the band.

APPLAUSE
FOR NIGHT & DAY
"My wife and I want to thank you
and the whole band for playing at our wedding reception on May 28th at the
Admiral Fell Inn. You sounded tremendous and the singer had a wonderful voice.
Your excellent musicianship gave the entire reception an air of class. We have
heard nothing but compliments from our guests. Indeed, you were so good that my
parents spent most of the night dancing. (I will never forget the sight of my
parents dancing a tango.) You were also extremely helpful while I was planning
the music for the reception. Please feel free to use this as a reference, or
refer potential clients to me. Having Night & Day play at their event will
be the smartest move they make."
"Thank you for your wonderful
contribution to our wedding. The music you provided for our reception at
the Jefferson Hotel was exactly what we had hoped for. Absolutely everyone
commented on how great the music was, and we thought it was particularly
appropriate for the setting. You were also great at "reading" the crowd and
picking up the tempo as the night went on."
"I absolutely loved the band! You
guys are so talented. We received more compliments on the band than on anything
else (well, except my dress, of course!) I'll be recommmending you guys every
chance I get."
"I wanted to thank you and Night
& Day Music for playing at my wedding. You made the reception fabulous! I
can't tell you how many compliments my husband and I have gotten about your
music. Everyone wanted to know where I found you guys. The jazz quartet and
vocalist was a perfect selection for our smaller gathering, and it really lent
to the intimate feeling of the party. You guys are magic."
"Thank you so much for playing
such elegant and fun music at our wedding at the Congressional Club! We
really enjoyed the planning ahead of time, and the cocktail piano and the band
upstairs were fabulous! We received so many compliments regarding your style,
sound, and especially about the female vocalist-everyone loved
her!"
