About Vendor

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

A premier Portland jazz band, The Little Big Band plays great speakeasy style swing jazz music in the gypsy style of Django Reinhardt. Led by singer and multi-instrumentalist Josh Gilbert, we are available as a trio for small events, or as a quartet with a bass player for larger events. We specialize in music for weddings, and have many years of experience making weddings easy and fun. Our music is great for dinner and dancing and is very family friendly. We also offer special packages for ceremony music, including flute & guitar or vocal performance. Our repertoire is a mixture of American jazz standards, French songs of the 30s and 40s, some Brazilian Bossa Nova, and some surprises. The Little Big Band is a great Portland wedding and special event jazz band. No matter the occasion, we will bring the swing!

Review by Deborah G.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on September 24, 2018•From Lake Oswego, OR

We hired the Little Big Band for our company's end of summer picnic at Foothills Park in Lake Oswego. Their music made the event FAR more pleasant than if we had not had any music. Their style of music was perfect for setting the mood with happy tunes. They were friendly very talented and professional. When we scheduled them there was a mix up with dates but they were understanding and were able to accommodate the dates. We're so glad they were able to play for our group and we look forward to future events where they can join us again!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 19, 2018•From Beaverton, OR

The band was great and dealt well with my scattered brain lol. They sounded fantastic and it was a great addition to our gathering. We would definitely request for them again.
