Get ready for high altitude swing! Big Time Operator (BTO) is San Diego’s own premier big band led by trombonist Kevin Esposito and featuring vocalists Draeh Jirnae, Andy Salmonsen and Niko Lovell.

True to the past and yet completely contemporary, this inspired 16-piece swing band are five time winners of the San Diego Music Awards for Best Big Band. BTO will take you back to the 30’s – 40’s era of the New York Savoy Ballroom with the great swing classics of the past, updated with their own brand of jump, jive and hepcat swing.

Big Time Operator brings one of the golden ages of music alive for all to enjoy.
