What to expect
Two archtop guitars, a double bass, a violin and harmony vocals, played by people who talk to a room rather than perform at it. PA comes with them, so the sound side of your event is handled.
The Swing Beans
The act
Listening can turn into dancing with The Swing Beans, whose bright acoustic jazz could give your wedding afternoon a gentle sense of movement. Two archtop guitars join double bass and violin in the quartet, with vocal harmonies accompanying covers mainly from the twenties through the fifties. The band has seven years of performing experience in Brisbane and South East Queensland, and you can also discuss a duo or trio. For the full ensemble, those string instruments and harmonies give the mostly uptempo jazz repertoire its acoustic character, with audience interaction part of the performance.
