Live footage of the Harlem Speakeasy Orchestra!!!!
Featuring drummer & band leader Graham Hawthorne, conductor & arranger Tim Ouimette, and the smooth croonings of Jim Mola, Margot Media, Brent Carter, and more! Burlesque sensations Tansy Tan Dora & Gemini Rising "barely" make an appearance ... the music's tight, and the crowd is loose, and the Harlem Speakeasy Orchestra is off the chain.

The Harlem Speakeasy Orchestra is a NY-based 13-piece big band made up of some of the finest musicians and vocalists in the world.
Led by dynamic drummer Graham Hawthorne (David Byrne, Paul Simon, Hubert Laws, Jon Hendricks); with arrangements by Tim Ouimette (Ray Charles, Count Basie, Cab Calloway, Ben E. King); the collective credits of the band read like a who's who of music, including current members and alumni of the Count Basie, Ray Charles, Cab Calloway, Liza Minelli, Lincoln Center, Woody Herman and Frank Sinatra orchestras.
ENJOY!
