ORCUTT — The Central City Swing Band will perform their annual Fall Concert on Tuesday evening, November 7th, 2017 at 7:30PM. The concert will feature music arranged in a traditional or vintage swing style as well as arrangements in a modern jazz style. The actual playlist is not finalized until the evening of the concert, but you can be sure that the tunes and the styles will be a pleasure to hear performed. The concert is performed in a church with very comfortable seating, but no room for dancing.
The group, led by Mr. Bob Swayze, has been performing on the Central Coast for many, many years. The band features 18 musicians in a standard “big band” configuration: 5 saxophones, 5 trombones, 4 trumpets and piano, guitar, bass and drums. The program will consist of all instrumental arrangements with no vocals.
The band has had several personnel changes since the last performance. Scott Anderson has replaced Zack Barker on the 2nd Alto Sax part. Sean Causby has replaced Tim Towne on the drums.
There is no advanced sale of tickets, and there is no admission charge for this event. There is a “donation basket” in the lobby and any donations are split equally with the Church, with the balance going into the band’s music acquisition fund.
The concert will take place at 7:30PM on Tuesday, November 7th, 2017 at the Unity Chapel of Light Church, 1165 Stubblefield Road, Orcutt, CA.
