Amazing Swing Band with Great Vocalist Rachel Marquez
Continuing our 2026 Season the Surrey Jazz Orchestra (SJO Big Band) are delighted to announce that they will be joined by the singer Rachel Marquez on Tuesday Feb 24th at Jacobs Well. Rachel Marquez is an Alaskan-born multifaceted artist whose skills encompass acting, modelling, illustration and singing. Her studies have seen her fly the Alaskan nest and spread her wings in New York and, now, the UK. Whilst Rachel's roots are firmly in musical theatre, her love of jazz and the Hollywood films of the 1940s and 50s has led her to build a repertoire of beloved jazz standards and movie favourites
Coupling this amazing singing talent with the swinging sounds of the SJO playing your favourite big band tunes will lead to a phenomenal evening of live music that will satisfy all tastes and ages.
Established over 50 years ago the SJO Big Band continues to recreate itself with great young musical talent and to play not only tunes from the golden era of the big band such as Count Basie and Stan Kenton but include their modern day equivalent from the likes of Quincy Jones and Gordon Goodwin.
Appearing in Jacobs WellVillage Hall (GU4 7PD) on Tuesday Feb 24th with entrance just £11 cash on the door this will be a night to remember. There is a great bar and ample parking.
