Immigrant Swing at The Golden Lion

A gig held at The Golden Lion on Saturday 9th January. The event starts at 20:00.


Riot Swing Music consisting of blends of Gypsy Swing, Blues, Hip-hop, world influenced music such as Mediterranean, Afro-Caribbean and Latin rhythms thus far. Transcending between English, French, Spanish, Italian and other European languages for now...

Immigrant Swing members spawn from diverse intercontinental backgrounds with French, Columbian, English, Welsh, Chinese and Italians in their midst, the diversity being not only cultural but also musical, with individual members trained in different styles, from Classical to Jazz, Hip Hop to French Chanson, Blues to Gypsy music and more. They combine these cultures and styles from around the globe, into what they call Bristol Riot Swing - a high energy, foot stomping, acoustic music featuring a swinging rhythm section, driven by Double Bass, Manouche Guitar rhythms and Drums. This provides the foundations for MCspokeMao to deliver his own style of beat-poetry, with Clarinet & Violin ripping through the melodic lines.
