Jennifer Salisbury's Swingin' Elixir
Based in Melbourne
About this act
Six musicians, four in the rhythm section and two on horns, which is enough for big band weight without needing a big band stage. Jennifer Salisbury fronts it, and the material is swing from the 1920s to the 40s given a modern edge. Minnie the Moocher, Puttin' on the Ritz, Ain't Misbehavin', Why Don't You Do Right, Feeling Good, Hey Big Spender, then a swerve into Royals, Creep and Seven Nation Army done Postmodern Jukebox style. Fats Waller, Ella Fitzgerald and Duke Ellington sit at the heart of it. Vintage stage dress is part of the show, so it fits a Gatsby night or a themed wedding without extra work from you. Two 45-minute sets is the standard shape, PA included, suitable for rooms up to about 200 guests. Melbourne based, with public liability insurance and working with children checks.
