With Halloween and Bonfire Night both out of the way, attention will now be focused on one thing and one thing only… Christmas! Of course, shop displays have had a Christmas theme for weeks. Ever since the ‘Back to School’ items were put away at the beginning of September, Xmas has been on the shelves! […]
Of all the wonderful companies that Silk Street are proud to call our friends and partners, one particularly stands out for its ingenuity… Proseccart. You see Proseccart, brainchild of Stace and Ish, are the fellas behind the UK’s only walk-on-board Prosecco bar with Art Deco features. We love how the logo has ‘Established 1920’ crossed […]
These days ‘wedding jazz band’ is one of the most searched for terms on the internet when it comes to weddings. At events, we are forever being asked, ‘Do you do weddings?’ How did jazz become synonymous with a wedding? Well, we can’t quite believe that next year it will be five years since The Great Gatsby, starring […]
One of the beauties of being an adaptable band is the kind of calendar it creates for us. Our annual schedule carries us all over the country, from one electrifying event to the next, but there’s one performance we’re particularly excited about in 2017. The Battle Proms are taking place once again throughout the summer, […]
Now that the sun is shining through the trees, we’re more in-demand than ever – especially for the good old British garden party! Back in May, The Jazz Spivs were called upon to play at Flume, Northamptonshire, for a very vintage sort of birthday… We love these events, because they’re a throwback to classic British socialising, when […]

Almost a century on, and with themed parties or events increasingly popular, the 1920s is understandably a popular choice for party and event […]
Throwing a party is expensive, but it’s worth every penny if it results in memories that will last a lifetime. To make your event one that people won’t stop talking about, you’ll want to make the most of your venue, live bands for hire, and any other entertainment that you’ve booked in for the occasion. […]
So, you’re looking for a 1920s band? First of all, we doff our caps to you and your great taste. No era can rival the roaring twenties for its musical bravura and infectious passion.

The Jazz Spivs will bring the revelries – that’s a guarantee. But we also want to give our hosts a fun-filled experience that’s right for them. Instead of offering the kind of generic set you could get from any old band, we’ll happily fine-tune our show to cater for 1920s band ideas and ensure we […]
Planning a wedding is a thrilling yet frantic process. There’s so much to sort out and look forward to, you’ll find yourself caught between two states of mind in the build-up to your big day: wishing the time away, yet wishing you had more time.
