SISTERS OF SWING

All Female Swing Band

Home

Welcome to the virtual home of the Sisters of Swing. 

We are a dynamic, all woman big band based in Bristol made up of professional and amateur musicians who all enjoy playing and performing together. 

Our extensive repertoire includes swing and big band standards ranging from the 1930s through to floor-filling pop favourites from the swinging 60s.

We would love to hear from you whether it’s to enquire about booking us or joining us! Feel free to contact us to find out more.

Vacancies

We currently have vacancies for brass players. If you are a woman who plays the trombone or trumpet to around grade 5 or 6 standard (or equivalent – grades are not necessary) we would love to hear from you.

Ideally you will be familiar with the swing genre and have experience of playing swing and big band music in a large or small ensemble. You must be willing to commit to regular rehearsals and a full programme of performances in and around the Bristol area and sometimes more widely.

There is no requirement to improvise but some written solos may feature in some of the charts.

For further information please contact us.

New Recordings Available!

We are excited to announce that in September 2024 the band returned to the recording studios again to record some brand new tracks from their repertoire.. 

You can hear these brand new tracks on this website on the  music page.
