Pat Barberot: Pat Barberot (d. 2007) was an American band leader.  He was the founder and band leader of one New Orleans' longest running big bands, the Pat Barberot Orchestra.  From 1940 until 2007, Barberot's band, with his saxophone out front, performed its own arrangements of classics including the big band composers Glenn Miller, Stan Kenton, Louis Prima, and Sy Oliver.  In 1970, Barberot realized that venues for big band were fading away, so he opened his own club, The Jefferson Orleans North.  There his band performed big band hits including "In The Mood", "Moonlight Serenade", "Sing, Sing, Sing (With a Swing)", "Midnight Tango" and "Eager Beaver" at their weekly concerts for over 35 years.

Beantown Swing Orchestra: The Beantown Swing Orchestra is a Boston-based 18-piece big band that was formed in 2006 by Frank Hsieh.  Initially specializing in performing the classic dance music from the Swing Era, the band has since expanded its repertoire to include transcriptions of Frank Sinatra's big band arrangements, and most recently its own arrangements of popular and original songs.  In 2007, the Beantown Swing Orchestra featured performer Jonathan Meath, who performed as Santa Claus in three shows.  Since 2007, all of the band's charts have been transcribed or arranged by trumpeter Danny Fratina.  The group's best-known vocalists are fellow American Idol sixth-place finishers Siobhan Magnus and John Stevens, although it also features other various female vocalists including American Idol semi-finalist Jen Hirsh, NYC-based jazz vocalist Laura Brunner, and singer/songwriter Erin McKeown.  The band performs regularly at weddings, galas, and concerts throughout the Northeastern United States.  Former trombonist Nick Noonan is one half of the pop duo Karmin.

Frank Zappa: Frank Vincent Zappa (December 21, 1940 – December 4, 1993) was an American musician, composer, activist and filmmaker.  His work was characterized by nonconformity, free-form improvisation, sound experiments, musical virtuosity, and satire of American culture.  In a career spanning more than 30 years, Zappa composed rock, pop, jazz, jazz fusion, orchestral and "musique concrète" works, and produced almost all of the 60-plus albums that he released with his band the Mothers of Invention and as a solo artist.  Zappa also directed feature-length films and music videos, and designed album covers.  Publications such as "Ultimate Classic Rock" and "The Independent" have described him as one of the most innovative and stylistically diverse rock musicians of his generation.

Roomful of Blues: Roomful of Blues is an American blues and swing revival big band based in Rhode Island.  With a recording career that spans over 40 years, they have toured worldwide and recorded many albums.  Roomful of Blues, according to the "Chicago Sun-Times", "Swagger, sway and swing with energy and precision".  Since 1967, the group’s blend of swing, rock and roll, jump blues, boogie-woogie and soul has earned it five Grammy Award nominations and many other accolades, including seven Blues Music Awards (with a victory as Blues Band Of The Year in 2005). " Billboard" called the band "a tour de force of horn-fried blues…Roomful is so tight and so right."  The "Down Beat" International Critics Poll has twice selected Roomful of Blues as Best Blues Band.

New Big Band: New Big Band is a term used to refer to the revivalist movement of 21st Century Jazz artists who are bringing a new form of Big Band music that fuses elements of traditional swing bands of leaders like Duke Ellington and Count Basie whose popularity peaked from the 1930s through the 1950s with the more intense sounds produced by smaller groups of the Bop era of the 1950s and beyond.  The distinction between big bands that survived the 1970s and several big bands that have had some success in different parts of the world is that the sporadic big bands between the fall of the Big Band era and 2000 have been more preservationist in nature.  The New Big Band movement is developing a new original jazz literature of fresh compositions as well as modern reinterpretations of standards through new arrangements that conform to the new style being presented to the public.
