Ali Affleck & Bedlam Swing - Spring Sessions

Spring Sessions

Early jazz historian Ali Affleck has earned her solid reputation as the quintessential ‘go to’ vocalist for authentic trad jazz and prohibition era blues. She leads old school band Bedlam Swing with a lively repertoire that ranges from the red hot roots of jazz in the 1820s up to the 1950s. With their toe tapping set list, which includes standards from the Great American Songbook along with many lesser known songs, the band deliver a fresh and authentic approach to the roots of jazz.
