Hello, and welcome to my site. Ben Mauger's Vintage Jazz Band
& my new group "MISSION IMPOSSIBLE"!
After a few years I finally have updated my webpage. Imagine that! We've updated our band too. While THE VINTAGE JAZZ BAND can specialize in Roaring 20s music / New Orleans Jazz / Swing Jazz music. We formed a new group MISSION IMPOSSIBLE and we now have added some great music to our concerts to include: Chicago / Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass, Show tunes, and much more. Please see and listen to the live videos below. So, from a 3-piece Jazz Band to our full 8-piece concert program please keep us in mind. We travel too.
Peace
Ben Mauger / Trumpet player / leader & company clerk.
