The Swingtet pays homage to the past with its swingin’ standards while peppering in jazz arrangements off the contemporary pop charts. Working with some of the best musicians in the Baltimore/DC area, Craig brings life to the songbooks of George Gershwin, Cole Porter, and Duke Ellington performing old songs with modern arrangements and modern songs with vintage arrangements. Whether tapping your toes or lindy-hopping on the dance floor, the Swingtet keeps the jive alive. The Swingtet is a flexible group of two to five musicians, adaptable to meet the needs of your events.
