Swingatto UK
Swingatto UK was started in February 2014 from a passion for gypsy jazz by guitarist Antonio Feula. The project originally featured Antonio, Milko Ambrogini then Rudi Creswick on double bass, and me on clarinet. We have played at many venues in London and the UK including The Green Note in Camden, The Bear Club in Luton, and TW12 Festival, as well as at many private events. The repertoire covers most of the Django Reinhardt songs, many other great tunes from the 1920s, 30s, 40s and some pieces written by the band. Since Antonio moved to the U.S., Jon Miyawaki has replaced him on guitar, and Nick Lenner-Webster on bass.
This is our album recorded with the original line-up:
Dear Matt,
I just wanted to give you and your band mates a big thank you for your wonderful music at my birthday.
It was exactly what I was looking for, and it has made the evening an amazing memorable experience.
The tunes , rhythm, tempo and volume were perfect
I will definitely book you again in the future and will be making recommendations
All the best
Nadia
