Howard Clarke Band

Howard Clarke Band
Howard Clarke Trio

Versatile jazz musicians

This professional band covers a wide range of jazz standards including classics from Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Fats Waller and many well-known tunes from the American songbook repertoire including Sinatra and the Rat Pack group.

The Howard Clarke Band has played variously at many venues including the Savoy Hotel, Royal Corinthian Yacht Club and participated at jazz festivals in the UK and Europe. The band’s six-piece line up is trumpet (doubling vocals), trombone (doubling vocals), clarinet & sax, bass, guitar, and drums. If you confirm the booking we will ask you for your favourite numbers so that we can personalise the play list.

Alternatively, if you are looking for that more intimate sound you might prefer the three-piece version of the band – The Howard Clarke Trio. This is ideal for dinner entertainment where unobtrusive background music is their speciality.
