Speakeasy Bootleg Band are best described as the Northwest's premier Vintage Swing, Jive and Gatsby era band specialising in the wedding, function and corporate markets, as well as having a substantial public profile. We are not merely a transient "product" that will be gone with next breath of fashion, but a highly popular and entertaining band with personality, that has stood the test of time, is here to stay, and has a track record to prove it. We are jazzy, swingy, enjoyable and perfect for the more sophisticated and discerning of clients or just a stonking good night in the pub. Our social media profile (13K+ Twitter 2K+ FB and even a mention on Tripadviser!!), customers' comments and our website: https://www.speakeasybootlegband.com provide more than ample evidence of this.
