providing the community of Edmonton and surrounding area with big band music for
dancing and listening enjoyment.
The Swing Emporium Big Band is a classic big band comprised of
approximately 18 musicians. We play original swing era dance music including
foxtrots, jives, latin and waltzes as well as a few big band arrangements of
modern 'pop' tunes. See our playlist for more information.
