Captains of Leisure / Rich Ortiz

Captains of Leisure has been performing since making their headlining debut on the stage of the legendary Stanhope House in 2004 and have been gaining fans ever since.  This eight piece band whose members are based in North Jersey features layered 3 and 4 part harmonies over a 3 piece charted horn section.

Their broad repertoire consists primarily of classic (and some lesser known) “old school” songs by bands such as Chicago, Steely Dan, Earth, Wind & Fire, Blood, Sweat and Tears, Tower of Power, Van Morrison, and a good selection of the Motown sounds among so much more.  The band has performed hundreds of events including clubs, outdoor shows, corporate and private affairs, and benefits.  The members are all seasoned musicians who have established a reputation of presenting quality entertainment which all ages of audiences can appreciate.  With Captains of Leisure, it’s all about the blend.  This is a group that knows how to create great music and great memories.
