| The Charleston Chasers, a
ten piece band who are led by percussionist and vocalist Debbie Arthurs, play hot
vintage music like you have never heard before! The Chasers,
formed in 1987, are the spearhead band for music from the Art
Deco era, so it was no surprise when they were chosen to play
at the launch party for the Art Deco Exhibition at London's
Victoria and Albert Museum. Some 800 invited guests were returned
to the great age of artistic and musical creativity and to great
acclaim, The Chasers drove new life into old numbers.
The Charleston Chasers hot vintage music show has
been seen in some of the UK's finest theatres with guest presenters
David Jacobs, Eric Knowles and Angela Ripon. The show features
the well- known tunes of the day,including numbers by Fats
Waller, George Gershwin, Charlie Kunz and Hoagy Carmichael,
and are performed by top-flight musicians and sung by vivacious
vocalists.
The Charleston Chasers have appeared at International
Arts Festivals in Bath, Cheltenham, Edinburgh Leicester, Lichfield,
and performed at open-air concerts for English Heritage, The
National Trust and many fund raising events. European Festivals have warmly welcomed The Chasers. Two
visits to Switzerland, as well as Holland and Denmark have
had audiences clamouring for more of The Chasers music. The Chasers recordings are regularly played on BBC Radio
2 courtesy of Desmond Carrington, Russell Davies and David
Jacobs.
Whatever your event, wherever the venue, however wide the
age group of your audience, The Charleston Chasers
brand of foot tapping, hot vintage music promises a very special
occasion.
