Vintage sound. Portable entertainment. Light, lively, intimate.
A musical walking act in the style of the Roaring Twenties
The Gatsby Walkers bring the sound and spirit of the 1920s straight to your guests – mobile, stylish and right at the heart of the action.
With a Dobro, soprano saxophone, washboard and selected vocal passages, they create an authentic vintage sound that requires no amplification whatsoever, yet is immediately captivating. Music that doesn’t keep its distance, but can be experienced through direct interaction.
Dressed in the stylish look of the 1920s – inspired by tweed, linen and the charm of the Peaky Blinders era – the musicians move freely through the audience and become part of the event rather than simply performing a traditional stage show.
The repertoire combines ragtime, swing and early jazz with well-known film themes and selected pop pieces in the style of the ‘Golden Twenties’. The focus is clearly on instrumental music; vocals are used sparingly and deliberately to add extra colour. The result is not a staged show, but a lively musical moment that blends organically into the atmosphere.
Whether it’s a garden party, a reception, a corporate event or a stylish private celebration: the Gatsby Walkers create a lively atmosphere that entertains in a charming and unobtrusive way, putting a smile on your guests’ faces.
We’re a purely acoustic act and actually play ‘unplugged’ in the truest sense of the word – that is, ‘without cables’ – completely authentic, up close and personal
