Rhythmic, romantic, torrid and witty, those are the tunes from the 1930s and '40s. Swing Fever not only plays the music, they talk about it - colorful stories, historical anecdotes, biographical sketches that revive the spirit of the people who created the music and the era which gave it life. They have the most experienced jazz players in the Bay Area.

Music by Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman Bing Crosby, Harold Arlan, Louis Jordan and so many more.

You may even want to dance, if you don't block someone's view, I'd bet it's okay.

Bryan Gould: bandleader, trombonist, vocalist

Noel Jewkes: saxophones

Brad Buethe: guitar

Richard Saunders: bassist

Ron Marabuto: drummer
