11/292025: Third Coast Swing
Third Coast Swing has been playing the music of the late Belgium born Romani Gypsy, Django Reinhardt & his band, The Hot Club Of Paris 1930’-1940’s. Think Louis Armstrong with a French accent. Third Coast Swing has changed it up a bit and has toured with the Detroit native Dave Bennett, violinist Grant Flick, vocalist Ella Jury Jarvis and pianist Andrew Henley. Ella and guitarist Kaedin Plummer did a deep dive on early jazz classics by Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan and Billy Holiday and then arranged these songs to fit Third Coast Swings eclectic style.
Third Coast Swing has performed with national touring acts such as Frank Vignola, Denis Chang, Jimmy Grant, Dave Bennett, and at many festivals, including The Midwest Gypsy Jazz Fest in Madison, Wisc. (2022 and 2023) as well as Brighton’s Smokin’ Jazz & BBQ Blues Festival in 2022.
Based on the west side of Michigan, the band performs regionally at The West MI Jazz Society, The Ludington Amphitheater, The Ludington Area Center for the Arts, Bell’s Kalamazoo, Detroit Jazz Society, Crooked Tree Art’s Center, Kerrytown Concert House, Playhouse at Whitelake Ramsdell Theater, Westshore Performing Arts and more.
The musicians for the Ciao!Jazz show include Steve Plummer, guitar; Grant Flick, violin; Ella Jury, vocals; Kaedin Plummer, guitar; and Tom Knific, upright bass.
