A Big Christmas Party!


The Mike James Orchestra and Singers

The Mike James Orchestra and Singers is a vibrant, fully professional big band consisting of powerful signature brass section, whip tight rhythm and talented soloists and vocalists all led by the earthy charm and boyish enthusiasm of Mike James himself, one of Britain’s best and most enduring band leaders.

A perfect mixture of youth and experience, classic and contemporary, their vast repertoire includes timeless big band classics, swing and rock & roll, soul, blues, latin, salsa and chart hits from now right back to the 50s. Combine this with their universal appeal, dynamic stage presence and an absolute commitment to entertaining the audience makes The Mike James Orchestra and Singers perhaps the most versatile band in the UK today.
