ONE MORE ONCE BIG BAND 

ABOUT
Us

One More Once is an 18-piece jazz ensemble that celebrates the best of big band tradition with a contemporary flare, consisting of some of the top musicians in the Tri-state area. John Molloy and Joe Verderese founded the band in early 2008. Based out of Clifton and Nutley, NJ, the band has been co-directed by Joe and Tim Hayward since 2010. We present music from all different eras and styles, ranging from the big band era of Glenn Miller and Count Basie to Thad Jones, Mel Lewis and Maynard Ferguson favorites. We are also inclusive of contemporary music from composers within the band and other artists.
