RETURN TO SWING STREET HOME PAGE
No, it’s not the fifth version of somebody’s mapping software. The Swing Street Five is the smaller, swingin’ jazz combo version of the Swing Street Band that is made up of all the Swing Streeters who are based in the Pinehurst/Southern Pines area. This means that we can play smaller, local Pinehurst area events in a more affordable manner, without worrying about quite so much the travel expenses.
The Swing Street Band is a dynamite 9-piece swing band/big band/jazz band/ dance band, based in central North Carolina serving most of North Carolina, as well as parts of South Carolina and Virginia, including Raleigh, Charlotte, Greensboro, Fayetteville, Myrtle Beach, and more.
The Swing Street Five is a quintet (piano, bass, drums & vocals, trumpet, and trombone that is available for dates in the Sandhills and beyond. Same fun-time atmosphere, same vocals, same basic song list (with some interesting additions). But more affordable to Sandhills clients.
If you’d like a chance to enjoy an evening with the Swing Street Five, then plan on attending the annual St. Patrick’s Day fund-raising dinner, sponsored by the Knights of Columbus at the Sacred Heart Church in Pinehurst. The date is Friday, March 13. The dinner is from 6-7, the band will play from 7-9. Ticket sales are open to the public; call John James at Heavenly Pines Jewelry in Pinehurst, 910-235-9086, for more information or to purchase tickets.
Cheers!
