Services
Huntsville’s In the Mood offers a variety of services for hire or rent.
Big Band
The core of Huntsville’s In the Mood is the big band, the full 21 piece swing orchestra. If your budget can afford it, and your venue can handle it, the big band is always top notch and recommended, and is a way to make any event sparkle with atmosphere and elegance. No other live music service can compare to the sound and variety that a full rhythm, horn, and vocal section can offer. The big band consists of 5 saxes, 4 trombones, 4 trumpets, bass, guitar, keyboard, drums, latin percussion, and 3 vocalists. We are a swing orchestra at full value!
All bookings of the big band come with a complete sound system, ambient lighting and Emcee services.
Medium Band
Sometimes you just need a smaller group for budget and space reasons, and that’s where the medium band comes into play. The medium band plays the same charts that the big band can, but with less harmony. We can play 90% of the charts listed here, and the sound and feel is still amazing, just not as full as the big band. The medium band consists of 3 saxes, 2 trombones, 2 trumpets, bass, keyboard, drums, 2 vocalists.

Combo Band
If the medium band is still too big, we can also break down into a combo, which consists of sax, bass, keyboard, drums. At this point, the combo band can only play for 1-2 hours before repeating songs, as we are still building a library for the combo. It’s usually recommended to use the combo band as an add-on to the big or medium band to help lessen the cost of entertainment for longer events. The combo is great for cocktail hours or dinner music as a prologue to the main event where the big or medium band would play a greater role in.
Wedding Service Combo/Singer
Huntsville’s In the Mood is a full service musical provider, and weddings are one of our favorite types of events to be a part of. In addition to reception entertainment and dance music with the big or medium band, we can provide music for your wedding service with piano, clarinet, and bass trio, or just piano by itself. Our pianist has over twenty years of experience with weddings. We can also provide a very capable wedding singer.
Equipment Rental
If all you need for your event is a simple PA system, then you can rent ours at a low cost. We have options for a small mic setup (1-5 microphones) to a large mic setup (1-16 microphones). You can rent up to two full range powered speakers and a stage monitor, with either an 8 channel mixer, a 24 channel mixer, or just a mic plugged directly into the back of the speaker for use as a loudspeaker. Setup and operator included in quoted price. Prices will range from $50 – $500, depending on the type of setup and length of time needed of the operator.
Want to add extra ambience to your event? For a small upcharge, we can throw in a couple uplights to splash the walls with color and added elegance!
