Swing it
Get ready to party like the Great Gatsby!
For the sixth year in a row, Swing'it returns to the Kongsberg Jazz Festival to take the audience on a journey 100 years back in time across the Atlantic to 1920s New Orleans.
They serve up a very entertaining show served with straw hats, humor, juicy wind solos, swinging rhythms and a good dose of charm that would have slipped right into the Great Gatsby's glamorous parties. The band, which played no less than 75 concerts last year, can boast, among other things, a semi-final in Norske Talenter, performances in 6 different countries, concerts at several of the biggest jazz festivals at home and abroad and a concert by the very A-ha at Kongsberg Jazz Festival 2018!
