The Archtops - From Swing to Soul!

The Archtops Dance Band

 Named after the quintessential jazz guitar (the Archtop,) Mike Faast & The Archtops  cover 50 years of swing, blues and soul. From the  soulful, danceable, crowd pleasing dance music of the 60's and 70's to songs from the great Swing era the Archtops have you covered.  Songs such as My Girl, Under the Board walk, Stand by me, and romantic ballads such as At last, When a man loves a Woman and Blues Rock tunes such as Sweet Home Chicago and I'm Tore Down as well as a  smattering of Swing tunes such as All of Me,  I Got Rhythm, It Don't Mean a Thing.  This is great dance music, however, it's also a lot of fun to just sit and listen to. 
*The Band Features  Mike Faast on guitar and vocals, Andy Carr on piano/vocals, Myco Ferrel on stand up bass, Mark Drake on drums, and Eric Likkel on sax, and Aaron Howell on guitar. 

There are  several other contributors to the band depending on schedule and availability to include; Sax players,  Eric Vanderbilt Mathews,  Mark Kelly or Mike Edwards and bass players, John Giuliani, Tom Anastasio, &  Mike Eytcheson, as well as Jeff Sizer on Piano/trombone.
*The Band can perform as a Duo, Quartet or Quintet.
