Swing'it

Hey there. Dig jazz? You’ve come to the right place!

Swing’it is the story of a group of dappers diggin’ the 20s era. Founded by the Norwegian band leader Martin Jarl whilst studying jazz music in London, this band has developed into one of the most successful trad jazz bands in Norway and Europe. They take the audience on a journey 100 years back in time to the 1920s New Orleans, telling stories about the roaring 20s and the foundation of jazz; about glamour, glitter and the Great Gatsby; about bootleggers, speakeasies and illegal parties during the Prohibition and flappers and dappers partying their nights away in the opulence and decadence of the Golden Era!
Their music is the perfect blend between vintage and modern; inspired by the old, but presented fresh and new. Taking the traditional jazz for what it actually was – party music – and mixing it with poppy arrangements and a great live show results in a unique atmosphere that puts a smile on everyone’s face. Due to their versatility and flexibility they’re performing shows for all age groups and to every occasion, spanning from jazz clubs and speakeasies; cocktail clubs and high class events; Gatsby parties and Prohibition events to corporate events, weddings and cruise ships.
