Songs From The Rat Pack – A Swinging Big Band Spectacular

Step back into the golden age of swing as The Sixteen Piece Northern Swing Orchestra brings their sensational Songs From The Rat Pack show to the Blackburn Empire Theatre.

Yorkshire’s premier Big Band is set to deliver an electrifying evening of timeless music, irresistible rhythms, and unforgettable entertainment. Expect to be transported to the era of velvet-voiced crooners, glamorous nights, and swinging tunes that defined a generation.

With three outstanding vocalists taking centre stage, the show celebrates the legendary hits of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr., alongside the swinging classics of Count Basie. Audiences will be treated to favourites including “The Lady Is a Tramp”, “Me and My Shadow”, and “Ain’t That a Kick in the Head”, as well as big band showstoppers like “Flight of the Foo Birds”, “Splanky” and “Sweet Georgia Brown”.

Musical Director Jonathan Wyatt says:

“We always love the Rat Pack show. The band gets to have a bit of fun on stage and it’s a rare opportunity to see an authentic line-up of all three Rat Pack singers with a full-sized Big Band. If you love the Rat Pack and the sound of a Big Band, this is definitely for you.”

Don’t miss this chance to enjoy an evening of world-class live music and nostalgia, performed with all the charm, humour, and energy of the original Rat Pack era.
