Metro Retro

The band, made up of top professional musicians from around the Twin Cities, is unique in its breadth and depth:

The band plays all standards, including popular music from each decade since the early 1900s, swing, smooth and modern jazz, "society" rock and funk, ballads, all styles of blues, and original compositions. The band works with a variety of jazz vocalists from around the Twin Cities.

We can range in size from a trio or quartet up through a big band, depending upon the occasion, the venue, and the budget.

Our versatility and flexibility enables us to deliver the right music mix for any occasion... whether it be background music for small house parties, reception lines, and dinner parties; featured entertainment for social events, private parties, and corporate gatherings; or as the show band to round out a gala fund raising evening.

Three of our core musicians are also successful businessmen. This has enabled the band to partner with a Twin Cities-based management consulting firm that works with companies to demonstrate, on an interactive basis, the principles of decision-making, team building, and general management by using a jazz ensemble as a teaching model.

Whether you are looking for background music or a featured band to fill a very special need, talk to us about how we can work with you to help make your event memorable.
