Our story
About Sæby Bigband
History
Founded in 1998, Sæby Bigband grew out of a shared love of swing and jazz among local musicians in Sæby, Denmark. What began as informal rehearsals in a member's garage has grown into a full big band, performing regularly for audiences across the region — from town square concerts to private celebrations.
Musical Style
Our repertoire spans the golden age of big band swing — Count Basie, Duke Ellington and Glenn Miller — alongside Latin and contemporary arrangements that keep our sets fresh for dancers and listeners alike. Whether it's a formal concert or a lively dance floor, we tailor our programme to the occasion.
Rehearsals
We rehearse weekly at Manegen, Sæby, Tuesdays, 19:00–21:30. Visitors and prospective members are always welcome to drop by and listen — see our Join Us page for current openings.
