Jazz. Truly a music genre for all seasons and every occasion, jazz is the dream ticket of events entertainment. Few, if any, types of music are so adaptable and versatile. Jazz suits the classiest of weddings. It’s ideal for themed events and parties. Raucous gatherings and decadent speakeasy shindigs cry out for it. Jazz is […]
Themed party events are definitely in vogue right now. What’s more, the 1920s is the decade many party planners opt for when it comes to putting on a razzle dazzle event. So, why is it that a prohibition party always come high on the list? Well, the 1920s as a decade has so much for […]
The BBC drama series Peaky Blinders wound up its 4th series just before Christmas. Slowly but surely the programme has steadily grown in popularity.

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.

Of all the wonderful companies that Silk Street are proud to call our friends and partners, one particularly stands out for its ingenuity… Proseccart.

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 […]
The 1920s – a golden age of glitz, glamour and Gatsby. A period of great social upheaval, it was the decade where people really began to let their hair down and party. Almost a century on, and with themed parties or events increasingly popular, the 1920s is understandably a popular choice for party and event […]
