Swing 26 – Saturday 20th June

WI Hall, Lower Lane, Chinley SK23 6BD – visit the Tickets page for more information

Matthew Compton (accordion), Ken Marley (double bass), Paul Hartley (guitar) and Julian Gregory (violin) have played together as an ensemble over many years, developing a musical telepathy that’s hard to create any other way.

With violin, accordion, double bass and guitar, the band have access to music from across the world in many styles, in a close-knit and reactive way the instruments converse, take flights of fancy and each player responds as if of the same mind. Expect everything from the Hot Club de France to the bothys of County Kerry or the barns of Shetland; from Brahms’ take on Hungarian dances to the real thing. Songs from Broadway, songs from the smoky jazz clubs of New Orleans, virtuoso fireworks and plenty of well-loved, familiar tunes. The band dubs itself ‘Swing ’26’ – next year it will be ‘Swing 27’. Don’t miss them before they’re gone.

Licensed bar.
