Be prepared for a total sonic immersion with this 16 piece big band loaded with some great horn playing, great charts and incredible improvisation from some of the valley’s finest jazz musicians. SOJO’s repertoire is a mix of swing, Latin and classic big band arrangements, well known as the most danceable music ever created. Formed by trumpeter Corren Hileman in the spring of 2008, the band has played in a variety of venues, including the Bear Creek Summer Concert Series, Rogue Valley Manor, Seven Feathers Casino, Camelot Theater, Howie’s on Main, Grape Street Bar and Grill, and many more.
SOJO plays at many local wineries, and both public and private events around the Rogue Valley. Come see us each month at the Grape Street Bar and Grill.
SOJO is available to play for special events or for a concert. For information on up-coming performances or to ask about the band playing for your event please contact Corren Hileman.

Hi Corren! Great to meet and visit with you last week at the Shrew’s House B&B! We loved our stay. I wish we could have stayed long enough to hear SOJO play a gig – we are huge big-band fans. Unfortunately I don’t think the sound files transferred to the CD – only the CD title. If it’s not too much trouble, could you burn another CD and mail it to me? (check the disc after you burn it to be sure the sound files transferred). My address is: Scott Hewitt 1846 Pheasant Hills Drive Loveland OH 45140-7177. We’re dying to hear your band! Thanks! Scott
Hi, Scott! This is the web master for SOJO. I’ll pass your message on to Corren!
