About
The FB Pocket Orchestra takes audiences back to the hot jazz, blues, ragtime and popular dances of the 1920/’30s. They originally began playing together in various FB Music and Media projects and officially began as The FB Pocket Orchestra in 2012. They feature a unique line-up of strings, brass, reeds, guitar, percussion and vocals drawing repertoire from that era. Arrangements are all written to especially invoke the period spirit while staying resolutely in step with current trends. Second album Boot That Thing was released last year with Fatea saying: “this is an eclectic and at times eccentric collection of material that really captures that era.”
