Frank Sinatra
  Elliott Brass Ensemble will be taking inspiration from the legendary Rat Pack for their next appearance

The Elliott Brass Ensemble (EBE) will be on their very best 'Rat Pack' form next month as they provide the entertainment at a special Black Tie & Ball Gown event in Culcheth on 30th June.

Reputation

The ensemble has gained a widespread reputation for providing superb musical entertainment, tailored to meets the needs of any event — from charity concerts to memorial fund raisers — and on this occasion they will evoke the spirit of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Peter Lawford and Sammy Davis Jnr with music that makes you swing, sing and dance.

Screaming for more

EBE founder Paul Andrews told 4BR: "There hasn't yet been a concert where the audience isn't screaming for an encore. We take what we do very seriously — so that means plenty of fantastic music played by great musicians.

We split the evening into three sections to enable people to both listen, get up and dance and even get to the bar before the next number is played!"
