A Latin Jazz Big Band that sings in 7 languages used to be a pipe dream.....that is, until we came along.

We're IC EXPRESS with the IC standing for Intercontinental - and we've only been around since August of 2006. We're on the express route to fame! So come aboard and ride with us all the way to Musical Nirvana!

We play Bossa Nova; Mambo; Middle Eastern Fusion; Smooth Jazz; Bebop; Swing; Afro-Cuban Jazz! We are not only promoting our music, but multi-culturalism, and we sing in English; Spanish; Italian; Arabic; French; Portuguese; German. 5 saxophones; 2 trumpets; 2 trombones; piano; guitar; bass; drums; congas; bongos; singers; singers; and more singers. We also provide smaller ensembles for more intimate parties.

The only way the world will ever come together is through music. IC EXPRESS wants to be a microcosm of all that's good in this complex world of ours. Not just our multi-lingual approach to interpreting songs; but our combining different genres under the jazz umbrella; our ethnically diverse and gender blind personnel; and our global view of society.
