The Roundabout Swing Band bring the classic sounds of 30s and 40s Paris into the modern era. Led by accordion and violin, the band cook up a sizzling selection of the finest manouche swing, hot club jazz, musette waltz and gypsy bossas... perfect for any event! We are a friendly collective of experienced musicians who love play this exciting and dynamic music together.
We have a large repertoire of songs and tunes: classics from the great Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli as well as contemporary composers; standards from the golden age of jazz; covers from film scores and pop songs and and even a few originals... and we're happy to learn your favourite tune if we don't already know it!
We can provide a line-up to suit your taste... all the way from a violin/guitar duo playing tasteful background music to a full 6-piece band with vocalists and drum kit to get your party started! The band can play completely acoustic, with battery powered amplification or with full PA system; let us know what you need.
