Synopsis

Thomson Swing Band, a prominent ensemble within the esteemed Thomson Jazz Club, is rooted in the big band tradition of swing music which flourished in the 1930s and 1940s. Named after its genre roots, the band proudly channels the spirit of big bands like Duke Ellington’s and Count Basie's.

 

Since its establishment in 1999, the band has actively been performing at various venues around Singapore, including a five-year stint playing weekly at the Rain Oculus at Marina Bay Sands. Beyond Singapore’s shores, they have also performed in venues overseas such as Ned Kelly’s Last Stand, a prominent jazz venue in Hong Kong and the historic Geographer Cafe in Melaka. Most recently, the band participated in the Thailand International Jazz Conference in Bangkok in January 2024.
