French Swing Collective falls under the umbrella of the French Horn Collective, created by Paris-born singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Vincent Raffard. Seeking new rhythms and cross-cultural collaborations, Vincent assembled a group of world-class musicians from across the globe, and something magical took shape.
PERFORMER BIO:
French Swing Collective is a Miami-based ensemble led by Paris-born trumpeter, vocalist, and guitarist Vincent Raffard.
Specializing in French swing, Gypsy jazz, and timeless jazz standards, the group blends old-world charm with modern energy in every performance. Their sound draws from the rhythmic drive of 1930s swing, the romantic spirit of French chanson, and a rich palette of global musical influences.
With a rotating cast of top-tier international musicians, French Swing Collective delivers stylish, high-energy shows that celebrate melody, rhythm, and connection. Whether reimagining American standards or performing original compositions, their music invites audiences to move, smile, and be transported.
From intimate jazz clubs to major festivals, French Swing Collective brings swing-era sophistication and unmistakable joy to every stage.
