 The Fairfield Counts is a 17-piece big band playing the best of the Big Band
music for all occasions. The band is located in Fairfield County Connecticut and
they entertain audiences in the tri-state area of Connecticut, New York and New
Jersey.
The Band plays at all types of occasions, including country clubs, civic
organization affairs, private events such as weddings, dinner/dances and holiday
parties. Every summer the group can be heard at outdoor concerts, festivals and
get-togethers.
Founded in 1976, the Fairfield Counts Orchestra has, over the years,
attracted top caliber musicians whose intent is to
recreate the unique big band sounds. It is now considered one of the premier big
bands on the East Coast. Seventeen musicians, a musical director and a superb
female vocalist, the Counts have been the featured orchestra at many area
country clubs and civic organization affairs, in addition to appearances at
private parties in New York City at Windows On The World, the Supper Club, Red
Blazer Too, The Yale Club, The Hotel Pierre and aboard the Intrepid Aircraft
Carrier in New York Harbor.
As was said of the Counts in THE NEW YORK TIMES, "It’s like walking into a
ballroom dance out of the past, and it is wonderful."
