Orlando Drive - Wedding, Party Band
Orlando Drive - Wedding, Party Band
Through the experience gained from over 2000 performances, Orlando Drive is one of Melbourne’s hardest working bands, offering professionalism, reliability and outstanding musicianship. The genre is Jazz, but the sound is a special blend of Swing, Rhythm & Blues, Bossa Nova, Soul, Motown, and Rock & Roll.
Inspiration and repertoire come from the swing of Louis Armstrong, the big band era and the roaring Jazz of the 1920′s ’Great Gatsby’ period, the cool sounds of Miles Davis and the ‘Blue Note’ label, ‘Great American Songbook standards and show tunes of Frank Sinatra and Michael Buble’, smooth bossa nova of Antonio Carlos Jobim, the old school Rhythm & Blues and retro Rock & Roll party starters of the 1950′s and 60′s by Ray Charles, Fats Domino, Elvis and Chuck Berry and the dance floor soul and pop classics of Van Morrison, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Al Green and The Beatles (along with our own very hip take on a selection of current day hits like ‘Happy’, ‘Moves Like Jagger', ‘Uptown Funk’, ‘Valerie’ etc).
