Welcome to Big Band Buddies, the website for all Big Band fans.
Originally started in 1999, my aim to bring news to fans of Big Band Swing music and Jazz performances active today,
and those of yesteryear with some nostalgic reflections of the great bands from the 20's 30’s 40’s to the present
day.
Over the past nine years
we have encountered many enthusiast who have contributed
to these pages with their stories and photos from concerts
to individual musicians and singers they have met.
I am privileged to have had many hundred of letters of support for not only this Internet connection but also for
the magazine we now distribute to many hundreds of fans around the world.
I have made contact with many musicians, famous celebrity musicians and singers who have entertained us over the
years, many of those people now members of Big Band Buddies who have them selves contributed to our magazine and
this web site.
I have tried to established many links to current bands operating today as well as other internet sites relevant
to our interest, which I’m sure you will find interesting.
I endeavour to keep this site growing as more and more sites become available as well as interesting articles we
receive.
Due to the amount of pages available on this site I have endeavoured to list a menu on the side of this page that
will take you to the menu pages of the one you request by clicking on the title. Those menu pages will lead you
further into other pages or links to other sites connected with the subject.
I hope you will contact me if this site particularly interest you and perhaps you can add your comments or articles
to this site.
