Performance - Swingmasters

Swingmasters is a group of dedicated volunteers who love big band music performing music from the 1930s to the present, memorializing the legacies of great band leaders like Glenn Miller and Count Basie, and iconic vocalists like Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra. They play for many non-profits around the area to help individual organizations representing a variety of causes. The eighteen members range in age from their early twenties to their early nineties, with a wide range of musical expertise and background.
