About the New Orleans Ramblers
New Orleans Ramblers, a New Orleans Wedding and Event Band, is the perfect choice for the hottest theme parties? Downton Abbey, Great Gatsby, Speakeasy, All That Jazz, Flapper, Jazz Age, or The Roaring 20s! The New Orleans Ramblers came to the Destin area several years ago to open Commander’s Palace. The Brennan family needed just the right group to anchor their world famous Sunday jazz brunch. The New Orleans Ramblers remained on the coast and have become the most unique entertainment choice for social events and convention theme parties. From tasty background music to a rousing jazz brunch, the Ramblers roll out the American songbook favorites to the delight of all. For larger parties offer the full 8-piece band and our Rat Pack Show is the BOMB!
