OVATIONS is the premier big band of the Southeast. Led by veteran trumpet player Don Edwards who was a member of several name big bands, it performs all the Standards and Swing tunes from the Big Band era along with a touch of more contemporary music as needed for dancing. Ovations is at home performing for engagements ranging from receptions and dances to national conventions and festivals. Its size ranges from seven to fifteen members as needed. With its exceptional music, extensive song list and Edwards’ spot-on ability to read and cater to the crowd, Ovations is known as “the band that keeps dancers on the floor and listeners begging for more!”
