Tune List--Big Band, Swing, Ballads, 2-beat



This is a selective list of tunes we play most frequently. If you don't see some of your favorites, ask us 4-6 weeks in advance. We have a large music library and usually can find the tunes. If we have some idea of a tune's tempo and style, we can usually play it as though we've been doing it for years... We have added many good tunes to our regular repertoire as a result of special requests. You may select enough tunes for the entire engagement (ca. 8-9 tunes per set), and even tell us what you hate; we'll go right down the list, mixing the tempos and styles as appropriate; unless you instruct us not to. Furthermore, we take requests.

After you've gone

Hummin' to myself 
I can't believe that you're in love with me
I can't get started
I can't give you anything but love
I cover the waterfront
I cried for you
I don't know why I love you like I do
I get a kick out of you
I got rhythm
I left my heart in San Francisco
I wish you love
I wished on the moon
If ever I would leave you
If I had rhythm in my nursery rhymes
If I had you
I'll be seeing you
I'll get by
I'll never be the same
I'll see you in my dreams
I'm beginning to see the light
I'm coming Virginia
I'm getting sentimental over you
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
I'm in the mood for love
Imagination
In a mellotone
In the mood
Indian love call
Indian summer
Isle of Capris
Isn't it romantic
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
It had to be you
It happened on Monterey
It's a sin to tell a lie
It's d'lovely
It's only a paper moon
It's wonderful
I've got the world on a string
I've got you under my skin
I've heard that song before

Unforgettable 
Very thought of you 
Way you look tonight
We three
We'll meet again
We've only just begun
What I did for love
What a wonderful world
What is this thing called love
What more can I ask
What's new
When a woman loves a man
When I fall in love
When your lover has gone
Where or when
Woodchopper's ball
Witchcraft
Wrap your troubles in dreams 
Yesterday
Yesterdays
You brought a new kind of love to me
You do something to me
You made me love you
You make me feel so young
You turned the tables on me
You'd be so nice to come home to
Young at heart 
Zing went the strings of my heart
