Swing from Paris are an all-string jazz quartet of violin
(Fenner Curtis), guitars (Andy Bowen and Sam Hughes)
and double bass (Tomasz Williams), inspired by the
music of the 1930s, ’40s and ’50s: from the cafés and
cabarets of Montmartre to Artie Shaw, Django Reinhardt,
Stéphane Grappelli and the master of tango Astor Piazzolla.
Known for their tight ensemble sound and virtuosic
performances, the group brings a distinctive Parisian
flair to vintage jazz and stylish swing. They have
performed at major UK and European festivals, including
the renowned Django Reinhardt Festival in
Samois-sur-Seine, and appearances range from
BBC TV and radio to the French Embassy at
Kensington Palace.
Their latest recording together is I Love Paris (2024),
available on vinyl, CD and digital.
