There is virtually no limit to how far Skyline Drive can travel. Of course, booking rates increase as travel distance increases.
Skyline Drive consists of two female vocalists, one male vocalist, guitar, bass guitar, piano/keyboards, drums, trumpet, alto saxophone, and trombone.
The Skyline Drive show band is a 9-piece group, which we know is a bit larger than some other groups — we pride ourselves on musical quality, authenticity, and variety, which requires multiple vocalists and horn players. We do offer different ensembles and soloists for other situations. For example, our jazz quartet is often called upon to play for cocktail hours or dinners. We can provide vocalists, pianists, or other instrumentalists for wedding ceremonies and other events.
Sound and lighting services are almost always provided at no extra charge. Exceptionally large events may require the services of a production company.
The band has been entertaining audiences since 1996, and has played for countless wedding receptions, corporate functions, fundraisers, birthday parties, and other private events since then.
Skyline Drive will learn up to three special request songs at no extra charge.
The bandleader will gladly serve as Master of Ceremonies.
During a four-hour event, the band will typically take two 15-minute breaks. However, you won’t notice — we try to make breaks happen during times when toasts, announcements, awards presentations, or other events are taking place. When needed, we will make sure recorded music is played in order to avoid “dead time”.
Skyline Drive typically plays a set of light instrumental jazz during a dinner and/or cocktail hour.
