1920s Dance Band
F. Scott Fitzgerald's description of the parties thrown by Jay Gatsby inspired the Jazz Age. The music at Gatsby's parties was provided by dance bands that performed intricate, exciting arrangements of the latest fashion in music: Jazz. The GCO dance band performs the actual arrangements used in the 1920s, just like you'd have heard at one of those infamous West Egg soirées.
Available with singers or instrumental. The GCO offers concert style performances or "dinner and dancing" style performances.
30s & 40s Big Band
Travel through time to an era when the sounds of hot trumpet and mellow saxophone could be heard wafting from the doors of all of New York's most elegant ballrooms and supper clubs. The GCO can take you there with the sounds of Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald Glenn Miller, Duke Ellington, Harry James, Guy Lombardo, Count Basie, and many more!
Available with singers or instrumental. The GCO offers concert style performances or "dinner and dancing" style performances.
Floor/Stage Show
A performance from the GCO can be augmented into a full stage show or floor show that will absolutely WOW your guests! Each show is a one-of-a-kind bespoke service that can include your choice of flying Lindy Hoppers, Chorus Girls, Burlesque Performers, Tappers, and more! We can also book other talent such as mixologists, cigarette girls, vintage photographers, mentalists, actors, etc. to create as immersive an experience as you'd like!
Jazz Combos
If you're hosting a cocktail party where you'd like light background music, or an event where space is limited, the GCO offers small combos ranging from 3 up to 8 musicians. Combos are comprised of members of the full orchestra, so the instrumentation of these groups is flexible. Small groups can perform with a singer or instrumental and can perform with or without drums. Our small groups cover music from the 20s, 30s, and 40s, including "American Songbook" classics, tin pan alley songs, swing, and New Orleans Jazz.
