Originally formed in 1982, the Bayside Big Band now consists of 17 professional and
semi-professional musicians and vocalists. The band performs regularly throughout the
Washington-Baltimore area.

Bayside Big Band is ready to provide the big band sound to fit any occasion. We play public and private dances, weddings, coporate events, private parties, night clubs, civic concerts and benefits, as well as, regional and national conventions. For the last seven years, Bayside has performed EVERY week 8:00 to 11:00 pm in and around the Baltimore/Annapolis/Washington area.

The Bayside Big Band strives to maintain the big band sound by playing the music of famous big bands from the 1930's to the present day, the early traditional swing sounds of Count Basie, Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman, the modern sounds of the Tonight Show Orchestra, the neo-swing sounds of the Brian Setzer Orchestra. To achieve this goal, Bayside has established a library of over 1000 arrangements, the majority being the original as recorded versions.
