Essentially Swing Bio
Get ready for entertainment filled with musical delights, from the
smooth sounds of Swing to the energy of Rock. We often kick things off
with classics like American Patrol, Little Brown Jug, and Mack the
Knife, then journey through time to the unforgettable hits of Tina
Turner, Deep Purple and Queen. It's always going to be a foot-tapping,
feel-good celebration of music you won't want to miss!
