The Pony Boy All-Star Big Band is a conglomeration of the best professional musicians in the Seattle area. Led by drummer and arranger Greg Williamson, this collection of musicians is truly All-Star. The 17 members have played with The Glenn Miller Orchestra, Woody Herman’s Thundering Herd, Harry James Orchestra, Count Basie, Natalie Cole, Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra, Diana Krall, Steve Allen, Ernestine Anderson... from New York to LA to around the world, the list goes on and on. They have pulled together an amazing library of arrangements dating back to the original swing hits of the 40’s - all the way up to todays large jazz ensemble orchestrations. As well as being an arranger himself, Greg has led many smaller groupings, releasing many CDs on his own label, Pony Boy Records, which serves as the moniker for this large swinging unit.

This band can set the scene for a black tie affair, with smooth swinging sounds and the classic sharp big band look! Add a vocalist for a truly authentic performance. And of course they play the modern big sounds with flair and energy...
