Rob Stoneback Big Band - Traditions (1990)

Rob Stoneback Big Band is definitely a big band for the 21st century. If swing is your thing, this is the band for you. The 17 instrumentalists and two vocalists define “class” with their renditions of the great standards and current hits. Equally expert at sophisticated dances or hot jazz concerts, the band has performed all over the Mid-Atlantic region, including New York, Philadelphia, Atlantic City, Wilmington, Baltimore, and most of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. We’ve played for Natalie Cole, Johnny Mathis, Aretha Franklin, The Manhattan Transfer, Rosemary Clooney, Lou Rawls, Olivia Newton-John, The Temptations, The Four Tops… Begun in 1979, the Rob Stoneback Big Band still swings like mad! Our members have performed with the Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Jimmy Dorsey, Harry James, and Buddy Rich Orchestras. We play the great hits from the Big Band Era and add the spice of our own arrangements of standards and more contemporary music. The excitement and energy of a full-sized big band cannot be duplicated. We are the real thing. Nineteen truly professional musicians who funnel their collective gusto into music that sets your feet tapping and your body swinging.
