Join us on April 26th for a special evening of great jazz featuring jazz vocalist, band leader, and composer Olivia Van Goor!

Olivia will join the Henry Ford Big Band for a one-night-only show that features Hollywood jazz favorites.

Olivia has built a reputation for not only being an excellent vocalist, but a creative force that has yielded two EPs, first “When the Shadows Fall” in 2021 and the second being “Don’t Be Mad At Me” which released in 2023. She has toured throughout the Midwest, and recently received Michigan Music Award nominations for "Best Jazz Single" and "Rising Star".

The Henry Ford Big Band was formed in 1983 and features a repertoire comprising jazz, swing, and latin tunes from jazz-era greats including Glenn Miller, Buddy Rich, Duke Ellington, Maynard Ferguson, and more. The band boasts a global resumé, including performances at prestigious jazz festivals, concert halls, and events in the US and Europe.
