While they do play original pieces, the bulk of The Gatsbys' play list consists of mellow, acoustic renditions of both old standards and contemporary tunes. They are best known for the subtly humorous way they turn familiar pop hits into reception appropriate material, such as Paper Planes by M.I.A. or Outkast's Hey Ya. Their mark and materials needed to communicate a contemporary formality while staying just as airy and fresh as their sound.
