About this Event
Prepare yourselves… Europe’s No.1 Western Swing Band is returning to the New Earswick Folk Hall!
Step back into a wilder, more glamorous age with an unforgettable evening of Swing, Jazz, and stunning vocal harmonies. The Swing Commanders are back-bringing their unique blend of musical mastery, vintage charm, and irresistible energy.
This extraordinary band takes finely crafted songs from the 1930s to the 1950s -ranging from American Songbook classics to Western Swing - and novelty tunesand transforms them with lush harmonies, hot solos, and impeccable showmanship. Their repertoire spans everything from smooth ballads to lively jive and quickstep rhythms, making them a hit at festivals, theatres, dances, and parties across the country.
The Swing Commanders have headlined many of the UK’s top Vintage and Country Music festivals and are adored by fans of Jazz, Swing, Blues, and Country alike. They regularly tour the UK and Europe, and even cross the Atlantic whenever they can!
Expect a stage show that is both technically brilliant and wildly entertaining. First‑time audiences are often amazed by the band’s infectious energy, seamless instrument swapping, intricate arrangements, and sophisticated vocal blend. This isn’t nostalgia or imitation- it’s great music performed joyfully, skilfully, and with true personality.
