Big Phat Band

Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band, an 18-piece jazz ensemble, celebrates and personifies the best of the big band tradition with a very contemporary and original sound. Through the writing of Gordon Goodwin, SRO audiences have enjoyed one of the most hard swinging large jazz ensembles comprised of L.A.'s finest musicians. The Big Phat Band plays many genres within their music, including latin, blues, swing, classical, hard-hitting jazz, and even an homage to Looney Tunes (!). The band has had two Grammy nominations and "The Phat Pack" hitting the charts currently.
