JAZZ & POP from the 1920s, 30s & 40s
ArtDeco Music brings you a variety of styles and line ups from the Art Deco Age,the late 1920s to the 1940s.
Lead by vocalist Steve Chisholm, for many years resident “crooner” at the famous Burgh Island Hotel, off the South Devon Coast, the ArtDeco Blue five recreates the authentic sounds of the jazz and “hot” dance bands of the 20s and 30s - Bix Beiderbecke, Ray Noble, Al Bowlly, Annette Hanshaw - and the kings of swing of the 40s - Duke Ellington, the Dorsey Brothers, Glenn Miller…
And, if you favour the “New Men” – Sinatra, Torme, Bennett – or those great songs of the 50s, the ArtDeco band has an ever growing book of nostalgic ballad from the era!Photographs by Kate Mount
