Popular Yorkshire based Sundown Swing make their debut at the Edinburgh Fringe with two exciting shows of popular swing music.

The band, consisting of 5 saxes, 3 trumpets, flute and rhythm section, perform a varied mix  of well-known  swing classics  including many made famous by  Glenn Miller and Count Basie in the 1940s, and some more recently revived by Robbie Williams and Michael Buble.

Although the music is mainly instrumental a couple of vocal items are included to add extra variety to the show. Come and hear their feast of foot-tapping favourites.
