Elly & Sam's Song list

We perform hundreds of Vocal Jazz Standards as well as many songs from other genres.

Rather than paste in a list of songs in here,

if there are particular requests/enquiries why not ask us about this.

We'll be more than happy to send an example set list over.

Examples of some songs we regularly perform:

Cheek to cheek

I let a song go out of my heart

Lush life

Ain't misbehavin

After you've gone

Deed I do

Do nothing till you hear from me

Exactly like you

Georgia on my mind

How high the moon

I don't want to set the world on fire

I'm beginning to see the light

I'm confessing that i love you

I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter

I'm putting all my eggs in one basket

In a sentimental mood

It could happen to you

Love me or leave me

Mean to me

Misty
