Cotton Club

Cotton Clubs long career is now crowned by performing at the Royal wedding of H.R.H Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel Westling.

We recently had the honour and pleasure of performing at H.M. King Carl XVI 70th birthday celebration at The Royal Castle.

The band was formed in 1984 in Stockholm and had its debut in the night club scene now legendary for an entire generation of party people! Their career has continued with countlessshows and tours all over Scandinavia.

In more recent years the band has performed in France, Germany, Spain, Greece and have made several tours to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand.

The bands unique blend of Soul, disco and jazz flavoured with Las Vegas, Frank Sinatra and glamour have made them the number one entertainment orchestra in Sweden and their international rennomée is growing fast.

The eleven piece band is a dance machine led by band leader and singer Richard Hager. Rooted in 70's and 80's disco and spiced with a big band feel with influences from easy listening, classic soul and funk the band delivers a powerful sound and the five-piece horn section sometimes like Basie, sometimes like Earth Wind and Fire is one of the bands great fortes!

Cotton Club often perform with other artists and have the glamour events as its speciality and have played at venues ranging from living rooms to football fields!

The band has it's own ballet with up to eight dancers for that really over the top Vegas feeling! More white feathers to the people!

Exquisite solist and stylist and the toy boy of the band. A good looking lad who is great in the kitchen!

Our own young boy started playing with us at the age of nineteen! Now he's played wuth us for longer than that..

Anders Carlsson

Trombone

His Imperial highness of brass! Also quite enjoys the occasional piece of crumpet, preferably in some sort of tarty frock! -"Ooh how they frollock about, gallivanting with their floozy-woozy whimsical and oh so tantalizing ways! How they entice and lure like sirens calling from afar so impossibly hard to resist in their knickers and ribbons!"

Tomas Sjögren

Trumpet

The backbone of the band with the power and the highness of the horn! Loves Tommy Cooper, Groucho Marx and Stan Kenton!

Mikael Renliden

Our arranger writing all our sweet stuff! The oldest teenager in the world!

Staffan Odenhall

Writes his own symphonies, we're all mighty impressed I can tell you! (One of them starts like "Congratulations")!

Fashionista and total hipster hitting those skins hard! The running man always on the road to somewhere!

Better than Nile Rodgers! (sorry Nile!) (thank you Johan!)

Our own professor of music prefers russian composers but has excellent knowledge of the popular contemporary repertoire!
