About The Dance Band

The McKinney Dance Band is a Jazz Orchestra comprised of 20+ musicians and vocalists. We strive to perform authentic music from the big band era in a way that engages audiences whether dancing or listening.

The music we perform is by great American composers like Duke Ellington, Glenn Miller, Cole Porter and Count Basie as well as songs made famous by artists like Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, the Andrews Sisters and many more.

The McKinney Dance Band is an all-volunteer group of musicians that meet weekly to rehearse in McKinney. With generous support from The McKinney Arts Commission we perform 2 public concerts annually at the McKinney Performing Arts Center. One in April or May and a Veteran’s Salute every November. We also perform for private events in and around McKinney.
