Touch of Class
Big Band Music for all Occasions
Dinner Dances, Holiday Parties, Fund Raisers, Special Occasions...
The "Touch of Class" is a 17+ piece Big Band based in Puyallup, WA. (Near Tacoma, WA) We play the big tunes (listening or dancing) that Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Duke Ellington, and other great bands performed. We have performed at Elks, Eagles, Moose, and VFW clubs; the Puyallup, Capitol (Olympia), Sumner fairs; and have headlined political rallies, and other fund raisers.
If you are considering big band music for your next event (club, shopping center, fair, etc.), please consider "Touch of Class." We can customize the musical selections to coincide with your special event.
Occasionally, we perform for special non-profit functions at no charge. Consideration for benefit events needs to be in writing, stating the event and the destination of funds.
Audition tapes are available upon request.
