What to expect
Me and My Swing Thing Trio--and or Big Band--play clubs-private parties-weddings- ect... Cool Swing Jazz on Hot nights and warm Swinging melodies on those cold rainy nights. If you'd like to hire us--drop a line and let's talk. I'm keeping the sounds alive that are of the great singers--with a Ring-a-Ding-Ding, and of the On-the-beat, off the beat- Bang-Smack Power of a Big Band Blast-- that "JUST SENDS YA, BABY"!
About
I have been performing professionally in and around the Los Angeles area for 14yrs. I have performed at The San Gennaro Italian Festival in Hollywood on the Jimmy Kimmel Stage for the last 4 years--and counting! I have Performed at The Alex Theatre in Glendale, The LA Athletic Club, The Hotel Bel-Air, The Norris Theatre at the Rolling Hills Estates in Pales Verdes, The Smokehouse In Burbank and for The Governor’s Ball for the 2003 Emmy Awards, just to name a few and I have sung with The Bill Tole’s Big Band, The Dick Parent Big Band, the Wayne Foster Big Band from San Diego as well as The West Coast Glenn Miller Orchestra.
My trio and or my band of any size--do the American song book of the classic singers--from the 30's--to the 60's. As well as jazz favorites that are good for dancing and listening.
I have a complete song book of over 200 songs. I have done many weddings, private parties and corporate events as well as clubs.
My band can keep it light or go all out swinging for all kinds of occasions.
