Big band sound
The World’s Smallest Big Band is a Florida wedding and party band that gets a big band sound with just four to six pieces. Click images to enlarge.
Ted Knight
leads on keyboard and vocals with trumpet, sax and drums.
Guitar and bass are available as options.
The mix starts with jazz, blues and standards but can include as much pop and rock as needed.
These are real musicians playing without recorded backgrounds, true live music from a remarkably affordable band. See the song list and hear demos.
Rock
and reggae
Ted also leads a four-piece rock and roll band called The Convertibles. The song list includes oldies, classic rock, and variety. Jamaican-born guitarist Eugene Grey is featured on Bob Marley reggae, and Ted sings Jimmy Buffet.
Jazz
combos

Orchestra,
big band
The Ted Knight Orchestra starts at eight pieces and includes trumpet, trombone and two saxes. They play the same arrangements as The World's Smallest Big Band, scaled for four horns instead of two.
With
ten horns or more and fourteen to twenty pieces in all,
The Ted Knight Big Band is the real deal.
The mix starts with Sinatra, Ellington, Basie and Glenn Miller, with pop
and rock available when needed. See the song list.
