We are not an agency or franchise but a single working band offering a uniquely personalized and niche service to our clients  Real instruments played live by highly skilled musicians – no electronics, samples, loops, backing tracks, drum machines or gadgetry   Playing vintage Swing & Lounge Jazz from ‘The Jazz Age’, ‘Great American Songbook’ and cool sounds of the ‘Blue Note’ records label – through to old school Rhythm & Blues and retro dancefloor Soul & Motown classics  From our compact acoustic Trio line-up for sophisticated background music through to our Quintet for lively Swing and Soul material, Orlando Combo can provide the genuine live Jazz experience for your venue or next event.  Orlando Combo first formed in 1996 when the members met at the Victorian College of the Arts (University of Melbourne) whilst completing a BA in music performance. Through the experience gained from over 2000 performances the Combo has gone on to become one of Melbourne’s best working bands, offering professionalism, reliability and outstanding musicianship at a reasonable price.

The genre is Jazz but more specifically the sound is a special blend of Swing/Rhythm & Blues/Bossa Nova/Lounge/Motown/Boogaloo and Soul. Inspiration and repertoire comes 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, George Benson and the ‘Blue Note’ record label era, ‘Great American Songbook’ standards and show tunes of Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole 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 Motown classics and vintage party tunes of Van Morrison, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Al Green and The Beatles etc.  To Whom It May Concern: Orlando Combo has performed in the Major Media corporate marquee for the Spring Racing Carnival for Melbourne Cup, Oaks and Derby days at Flemington racecourse. Due to the successful nature of the booking it has continued now every year for 8 years straight.  Because of the bands professionalism, reliability and outstanding musicianship we had no hesitation in booking them in every year as we received so much positive feedback from our clients and guests.  I have no hesitation in highly recommending the Orlando Combo jazz band to anyone seeking quality live music for a venue, function or event.  Regards, David Field Managing Director – MAJOR MEDIA'
