Big Band Bash is a show presenting the music, musicians, and era of the great Big Bands.  Each show highlights a different aspect of the big bands, whether it be a show about a certain band or a subject of the big bands anywhere from the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. I hope to get your feet tapping with this great music.
