The Bad News Jazz and Blues Orchestra is a 19 piece 'Jump,  Jive  and Wail' big band that carries on the excitement of the big band era by performing  music of  contemporary artists such as  Brian Setzer Big Band, Michael Buble`, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Cherry Poppin’ Daddies, Bruno Mars, Flying Neutrinos, Average White Band, Tower of Power and many others. The BNJBO has developed a repertoire that mixes the swing music of the 30s & 40s with the Jump, Jive and Wail  music of today. Audience members at one moment may hear the famous Sing, Sing, Sing drum solo of Gene Krupa, followed by a driving arrangement of Crazy Little Thing Called Love by Queen, Frank Sinatra’s New York, New York and then Bruno Mars’ Uptown Funk.   In existence since 2012, the BNJBO has added several outstanding musicians  recently, creating an incredibly tight ensemble with outstanding jazz soloists in every section of the band.
