Two distinct holiday experiences.

One unforgettable Christmas.

Available in a variety of ensemble sizes — from intimate instrumental duos, trios to our signature quartet & larger 5–9 piece bands.

Step into Christmases Past

Imagine stepping into a Christmas from another era — warm lights, cocktails, vintage holiday records, and the unmistakable sounds of Christmas as we remember it.

The Evening Beat's Mid-Century Christmas brings together the cozy jazz of A Charlie Brown Christmas, the timeless romance of Bing Crosby and Nat King Cole, the sophistication of Ella Fitzgerald, and the modern crooner sensibilities of artists like Michael Bublé, Harry Connick Jr. and Jamie Cullum.

The result is a warm, sophisticated holiday experience that feels both nostalgic and fresh — equally at home at an intimate cocktail party, corporate holiday celebration, or elegant private event.
