The dynamic swing band, featuring the best of London's young swing jazz musicians.


Our latest news... our great new singer Anjali Perin will be with us on our future live dates, the next one is April 28th at The 100 Club, see gig page for details. Lizzie Scott has had her baby (little Louis) and with hubby Paul have moved back to the land of Oz! We wish her all the best... Meanwhile we are currently recording with Anjali and our fantastic new pianist and vocalist Nick Dawson.

Alex Garnett is back from recording in New York and is now singing as well as playing saxophone for us, so along with some new arrangements from bass player and bandleader Simon Thorpe, watch out for some close-harmony vocals! This band has it all!

Jivin' Miss Daisy play authentic arrangements from Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Fletcher Henderson and Charlie Barnet as well as arrangements specially written by bandleader Simon Thorpe. With musicians hot-foot from playing with acts like Jools Holland, Stacey Kent, Bryan Ferry and
Ray Gelato's Giants, this really is an all-star band.

Jivin' Miss Daisy - bringing back swinging sounds to London,
performing regularly at The 100 Club,
Jitterbugs at Stern Hall & The Rivoli Ballroom
.

A perfect band for weddings, parties, dances & corporate functions with a retro flavour -
also available in compact line-ups to suit your personal requirements or budget.
