The Bill Elliott Swing Orchestra is a swing band for today, with its own distinctive songs and sound  light-hearted, energetic, witty, romantic feel good music. Our third Cd Swingin' The Century has been spun with great enthusiasm by DJs and dance teachers in LA, SF, NY, and DC! The band recorded at famed Capitol Studios A and B in Hollywood, using a combination of vintage microphones and modern technology to create a distinctive sound that fits Elliott’s retro-style arrangements. As on the second record, the vocal quartet Bill’s Lucky Stars is featured prominently, and lead singer Cassie Miller steps out on three solos as well. Its 15 tracks include ten of Bill Elliott’s brand-new original songs as well as five classic tunes from the first swing era. Songs include "Swingin' the Century," "Oh Lady Be Good," "Blues in the Night,"Camp Hollywood Special," and "The Shim Sham Song." http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/belliottswing
