The Kicks – Conference Entertainers are an authentic 8 Piece Jazz Band taking Top 40 hits and approaching them in a swing and Jazz style.

Fronted by the phenomenal vocals of Hannah Foster and Cameron Bruce, The Kicks takes the every day pop songs we hear on the radio and approaches them with a jazz/swing feel. Simply put we take pop music back in time.

Be it Meghan Trainor’s “All About That Bass” in a swing style, George Ezra’s “Budapest” in a blues/Jazz style or Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off” in a slow Bossa style we aim to recreate the atmosphere of the great swing and big band era.
It’s quite a sight to have a full 8-piece swing band on stage playing recognizable pop tunes with a Gatsby feel.
