About Us

Okay for Sound ...
Dancing to music played by Okay for Sound allows you to enjoy and experience Bryan Webb’s passion for classic dance band music from the 1920s and 30s. A DJ (or to use the correct period description – a purveyor of gramophone recitals for dancing!) was an unknown phenomenon in 1930s. However, utilising modern technology to transfer the 78rpm shellac source of ORIGINAL dance band recordings to CD, computer and digital storage, Okay for Sound brings you crisp, bright dance music TODAY. Bryan’s vast private collection of rare dance band tracks comes back to the dance floor, seventy years later! Bryan plays his authentic recordings at social events, nightclubs, tea dances and weekend events throughout Europe. A passion for British dance bands is balanced by a love of the more unusual continental recordings, the big Cuban Dance Orchestras and music from around the Empire! You might find one or two numbers from ‘over the pond’ too!

“Tip top tunes – here we present a delightful foxtrot on the Rex label . . . “	Equipment provided (with art deco surrounds and screens) includes a professional dance hall quality dual CD sound system – even an authentic recreation of a BBC Outside Broadcast unit (circa 1939). If your taste is suited to the original acoustic replication, Okay for Sound can arrive with original decks or gramophones for a more intimate tea dance. Dressed in period evening clothes, Bryan brings Okay for Sound to life, allowing you to experience this beautiful, original dance music, announced in eloquent tones, so often overlooked in our over amplified world. If you wish to learn to dance the foxtrot, quickstep, waltz, Palais Glide, Lambeth Walk or tango . . . . we can help! Our dear chums from C&BLE work with us to get you on the floor and following some easy dance steps with your partner. Contact us to find out more
