About / Biography

It’s a Swing Thing is a sharply dressed swing trio with a barely concealed smirk. Featuring piano, double bass,, drums—with vocals front and centre—the show delivers crisp arrangements, stylish improvisation, and just enough trouble to keep things interesting.

Rooted in classic swing and big-band jazz, this is a stripped-back lineup with a full-bodied sound. Expect sharp grooves, elegant musical conversation, and a performance built to move bodies, raise eyebrows, and remind everyone why swing still swings.
