The Air Force Big Band is the Air Force's high profile jazz ensemble.
The band's talented musicians were brought together to create a musical powerhouse that is quickly becoming a prominent part of the entertainment landscape.
The band has a strong heritage drawn from "the big band era" of the 1920s to 50s, and continues the tradition of the Air Force big bands that rose in popularity during World War II. The ensemble's diverse repertoire includes original compositions and arrangements by band members, traditional big band swing, and contemporary jazz.
With its wide appeal and broad reach into the community, the Air Force Big Band promotes the Air Force and its values when performing at major community festivals, public events, schools and formal Defence Force functions.
