Holder and Smith are a gypsy jazz duo comprising award-winning jazz violinist Ben Holder and Stuart Carter-Smith, one of the UK’s most respected and authentic jazz guitarists.  Their set features tunes from the swinging Paris jazz scene of the 1940s as well as modern pop classics performed in their own contagious and energetic style. Whether it’s performing background music at small intimate gatherings or a raucous interactive stage show at venues such as The Royal Albert Hall, the band are really versatile and are a popular musical option for corporate, private events and weddings. They were even recently selected by The Beckhams to perform at Romeo Beckham’s birthday party in Nice to an audience featuring Elton John.
