Dave Washburn Jazz Band Profile Picture

Dave Washburn Jazz Band

Compare to: Pete Fountain, Benny Goodman, Sinatra vocals
Dallas, TX, USA

Jazz & swing band, usually 6 members but varying from 2 to 7 members

We are a 6 piece traditional New Orleans style group, playing hot jazz, swing, dixieland, big band tunes and other varieties. You may hear some Sinatra style "croon tunes," an Elvis or Chuck Berry song or maybe even a polka or two, especially around Oktoberfest season. We have played many venues in the Metroplex, including weddings, corporate & private events, swing dances, parades, State Fair of Texas, and even some jazz funerals. Sometimes we have more musicians join us or swing dancers who always add some fun to the mix. Other settings call for a smaller, quieter group. If you are planning a dinner, cocktail hour or brunch you might enjoy having my trio or quartet to create a classy, jazzy ambiance for the occasion. Club/restaurant proprietors might like that style for weekend brunches. We can offer a variety of music from "soft and sweet" to "Bourbon Street."

ave Washburn and his Jazz Band performed for Entertainment Series of Irving during our 64th season. The band is lively and energetic, and the dancers really make me want to dance. We enjoyed having him and his associates as part of our 2019-2020 season, and look forward to working with them again. Johnnie P. Marketing Entertainment Series of Irving

The Dave Washburn Jazz band truly delivered! We had an outdoor venue, and everyone had a great time. The band sounded fantastic and read the crowd very well. We had a dancefloor brought in and the band had many of our guests dancing! We received many comments about our event and almost everyone mentioned how great the band was. They were very easy to work with. I would highly recommend The Dave Washburn Jazz band for your event. We will definitely be booking them again for future events. - Texas State Railroad

Terrific! We asked the band to play at a funeral and they were just perfect, injecting a bit of joy at the end of of a somber affair with just the right balance. Also Dave Washburn is very professional to work with and that much appreciated.

Private wedding - Groom
3 years ago Working with the Dave Washburn band for a wedding was a great experience! They were very flexible and professional even when the weather changed our original plans. They truly added a special touch to the ambiance and every guest commented on how fantastic the band sounded!

If you have an opportunity to see these wonderful musicians play, you simply must. They are artistic perfection. My husband and I love New Orleans, and Dave Washburn's band is our French Quarter heaven right here in Dallas! Every member of the group is unbelievable talented, and their love of and respect for music translates into every note they play. They keep the crown singing, dancing, and head-bobbing for hours. Dave has a dreamy voice and a great sense of humor: truly a great band leader. They played at our wedding, laying the perfect groundwork for a joyous life. Support this band: A Local Treasure!
