Who: Vintage Swing Thing
When: Saturday 20th April 2024

Brought to you in partnership with luxury musical entertainment providers Musique, Arthur and Vintage Swing Thing promise a spectacular night filled with classic and reworked modern hits.
Arthur and his bandmates are gearing up to deliver an unforgettable evening filled with soulful melodies, infectious rhythms, and irresistible energy.
Known for their dynamic performances that transport audiences to the golden age of jazz, Vintage Swing Thing promises to deliver a night of music that will have attendees tapping their feet and dancing in the aisles.
Vintage Swing Thing here at The Grand will be a standing event with limited, unreserved seating, to allow for a large dance floor that will allow guests to show off their best swing dance moves throughout the evening.
Hailing from Clitheroe, Arthur has become a fan favourite around the Ribble Valley, particularly following his internationally recognised ‘Sunday Singalong’ sessions during lockdown.
His timeless smooth voice puts a fresh take on old classics and reimagines modern tunes with great poise and authenticity.
Reflecting on their previous show at The Grand, Arthur Geldard expressed his excitement about returning to the beloved venue. He said: “The atmosphere at our last performance was absolutely electric, and we can’t wait to be back on stage at The Grand.”
“It’s a special venue that truly embraces the spirit of live music, and we’re honoured to have the opportunity to share our music with the audience once again.”
Vintage Swing Thing are a dynamic and musically virtuosic 7-piece band, led by their musical director, Joshua Goodey. This timeless band forms the backdrop of the show, performing a mixture of 20s inspired modern classics and swing songbook numbers of yesteryear.
With a repertoire of original arrangements that wouldn’t look out of place at Ronnie Scott’s, Vintage Swing Thing’s all-singing all-dancing rhythm section will get you shaking your tail feathers.
The band also features female co-lead singer Adee Lifshitz, a Royal Northern College of Music graduate known for her sensational tone and delivery.
Attendees can expect a lively and engaging performance that showcases the band’s unparalleled musicianship and infectious enthusiasm for jazz music, with a few surprises up their sleeve.
With some very special guests also planned for this spectacular night, Vintage Swing Thing at The Grand is not one to be missed!
