About The Ivy League – professional Roaming Brass Band based in London, UK
The Ivy League is a sophisticated, suave, pop-jazz-soul New Orleans style brass band that has performed at some of the world’s most iconic venues and exclusive events.
Comprised of some of the UK’s finest musical talent, The Ivy League is equally at home performing for an intimate private dinner in St Tropez, playing a champagne reception at Harrods, leading a parade through the streets of London, as they are entertaining CEOs at a sold-out Wembley Stadium.
What makes them different?
They're more than just another wedding brass band.
Brass with subtlety, finesse and elegance, with a powerfully rich, in-tune tone. Members of the group can be seen performing live on stage with musical icons such as Olly Murs, Sugababes, Christina Aguilera, Chaka Khan and Sir Tom Jones, as well as regular appearances at venues including Ronnie Scott’s and the Royal Albert Hall in London.
We're regularly booked to perform for weddings and events at Poplar Farm in Suffolk.
With their effortless sartorial style and world-class musicianship, their arrangements of commercial hits and classic New Orleans tunes by artists such as Pharrell Williams, Nat King Cole, Sinatra, Beyoncé, George Michael and Louis Armstrong bring exciting new energy to songs you know and love.
Recent clients and events include Annabel’s (Mayfair, London), Harrods, Chopard watches, Courvoisier, SipSmith Gin, Saville Row, Brooks Brothers, Victoria Beckham, Buckingham Palace, H Beauty, Google, Spotify, Montreux Jazz Festival and Disney and a plethora of VIP corporate events, celebratory parades, private parties and champagne receptions.
