Constant
re-invention. That's what jazz is all about. And Shoestring Swing
has just re-invented itself — by adding 4 new members and new
"old" tunes to their play list!
The group's small size allows up-beat, intimate treatments
of jazz standards from the Swing Era. Bandleader John Malmström explains:
"We're interested creating new versions of favourite tunes and re-discovering
forgotten gems. This music was meant to be fun, vital… even edgy at times.
And while we strive for an easy-to-enjoy, historical sound, each musician
brings new ideas and constant experimentation"
You can catch the band swingin' various locations in
Nova Scotia later this summer.
