SwingLine Jazz Ensemble

SwingLine is a group of 10 accomplished and tenured musicians brought together from Toronto to Hamilton and Niagara purely for the love of music.  Whether they are gracing the stage at some of Ontario’s most popular music festivals or performing at large scale corporate events, their sound is a throwback to the days when jazz would fill New York’s Cotton Club and Preservation Hall in New Orleans.  Joining the band, vocalist Shari Vandermolen combines a sound reminiscent of musical inspirations like Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, and Etta James. 

Swingline is: Darren Blundell – alto sax, Don Hall – tenor sax, Pat Lundy – baritone sax, Ray Chantler – trumpet, Tom Wallace – trombone, Wayne Allison – drums, Doug Bowman – piano, Stan Czajkowsky – guitar, Urmas Soomet – bass, & Shari Vandermolen – vocals
