THE LAKE NORMAN
BIG BAND
BIG BAND
The Lake Norman Big Band is the premier big band in the Lake Norman and greater Charlotte area. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable musical arts organization formed by all-volunteer musicians. The Lake Norman Big Band takes the stage with about 20 members and performs the full spectrum of jazz music from the 1920's to present day. We perform selections from Dixieland, swing, bebop, Latin, jazz-rock fusion, faith and pop genres. The group generally performs with 4 trumpets, 4 trombones, 5 saxophones (2 alto, 2 tenor & baritone), a rhythm section (piano, guitar, bass guitar, drums & percussion) and vocalists.
The big band has been performing regularly for the public on a monthly schedule since January 2010. We also perform for charities, churches, festivals, non-profit organizations, clubs, fund raisers, veteran’s groups, corporate celebrations, etc. We play in either concert venues or dinner/dance settings. Playlists are developed specifically for each occasion. The band is currently booking performance engagements. Please contact us for more information.

The concert/dance area is enclosed and separated from the bowling alley by glass walls so that sound from the lanes does not disrupt our music.

Upon your arrival at the venue, you will receive a $10 credit per person to apply to food, drink, or other entertainment at the facility.
