Welcome to Greater Seattle's Hottest Big Band


​Route 66​

​

The Big Band Era

Route 66 plays Swing Music, which was the popular music of the 1930s-1950s. From Benny Goodman to Duke Ellington, Harry James to Glenn Miller, the Route 66 Big Band performs the music of the "Greatest Generation"  that's fun to both listen and dance to.  It's Happy and Entertaining Music!

Our 18-piece Big Band
showcases our full sections of saxophones, trombones, & trumpets, with a rhythm section composed of piano, bass, drums, and guitar, as well as a vocalist.

The Music

This is the music we love to play and you love to listen to, mostly swing standards from the 30s, 40s, and 50s (and some surprises too!).
​
ROUTE 66 has an extensive library. The songs listed on The Music Page are examples of the tunes we play. However, they may or may not be currently in our working 'book' so if you want to hear particular tunes, just let us know!

Parties - Events  Corporate & Private

Dinner Dances, Fundraisers, Birthday Parties, Corporate Parties and Special Events are all made more special and memorable by hiring the Right Band for the gig.  Contact our Booking Agent to discuss your Events as we can custom-tailor our music to your needs.

Weddings

With the classic White Tux formal attire and a well-rehearsed band, Route 66 is ready to make your day memorable. From Swing to Tango to Bossa Nova to Waltz and holiday tunes, the depth of our music library is one few bands can match.
​

Need a smaller band?

Sometimes a Big Band is just too big for a small venue, or perhaps your event requires ambient music during a meal or pre-big-event cocktails. For these needs, Route 66 is proud to offer smaller groups of 2 to 7 players. We have the players and music to fit almost any vibe and location.
