We play all kinds of music, from jazz, pop, disco, soul, funk, Latin, swing to waltz. We are confident in being able to plan a dance evening that suits your audience at your event.

The band appears mainly at larger balls and official occasions, for example at academic graduations and formal parties, at the City Hall, balls at various castles, order halls and party venues, but we also provide musical entertainment at parties, anniversaries, balls, corporate events, concerts and as a backing band for various artists. On Cue has played for the dance at the Nobel Prize party three times.
