The series kicks off with the seven piece Prima Swing Riot Band, whose mix of swing, shuffle and jive are sure to get
guests up and dancing.
In the following weeks, guests can chill out with rhythm and blues band
Hip Flask, accompanied by Roger Manins, one of Australasia’s top saxophone players, salsa with Banda Latina and go
country with the James Ray Band.
