Gatsby Party Central

Start the night with a quiet jazz duo in the corner and finish it with an eight-piece swing band and a floor full of lindy hop. That's the kind of plan Gatsby Party Central, led by Mark, likes to build with you. Anything from two musicians to eight is possible, and Mark will help you weigh up room size, guest numbers and whether the music sits in the background or takes centre stage. Their named shows include Speak-easy, a duo or trio that stays under the conversation, and The Cole Porter Songbook, with Mark's own arrangements of Night and Day, Anything Goes and De-Lovely. The repertoire tops 100 classic songs. They bring their own sound system, are covered by public liability insurance, and Melbourne is the base for trips of up to 300 km.
