UpBeat Band Performs a Wedding Celebration at The Chicago Cultural Center

Our 5-7 piece group, The UpBeat Band, is always committed to customized wedding planning, and last weekend at the Chicago Cultural Center we performed a very specific play list created by the bride and groom which focused on the swing classics, including standards by Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennet, and Ella Fitzgerald, as well as R&B/Soul classics, especially Marvin Gaye and The Temptations.  This was a very elegant party, and the finale was “Dance To the Music” by Sly and the Family Stone.
Cheers!
