Live Music Worth Dressing Up For

Los Angeles knows how to host an extraordinary celebration—from red-carpet galas in Beverly Hills to black-tie ballroom evenings in Bel Air and luxury receptions across the Hollywood Hills. But landmark events require more than a generic wedding variety band or a novelty costume act.

Directed by world-touring crooner Mark Kopitzke—former lead vocalist for the legendary Glenn Miller Orchestra and featured guest artist for six seasons with the historic Long Beach Municipal Band—The Evening Beat brings authentic concert-caliber musicianship, Hollywood glamour, and effortless vintage cool to private stages.

Backed by Southern California’s premier studio brass and rhythm players, we bring the authentic sound of the Great American Songbook, mid-century Sands Hotel swagger, and high-energy swing to the county’s most discerning hosts.
