🌟Wave Promotions & Swingamajig presents 🌟
Swingamajig Bristol All Dayer
🔥Statement from festival 🔥
Last year's show marks 11 years of incredible gigs for us, and it was awesome we got to finish it on a high with an outpouring of support from you all.
Organising the festival takes a lot out of us, and right now at Swingamajig HQ we are focusing on creating new music with Electric Swing Circus, C@ In The H@, Big Band of Boom and Ragtime Records.
So although we said we'd take some time off to focus on other things, an old friend at Wave Promotions got in touch to discuss doing an event in 2025 down in Bristol. Over the last 10 years they've been putting on Electric Swing Circus shows, but this time wanted to do something a little bit bigger, something like an all-dayer filled with incredible live music, something a little bit more Swingamajig ;)
While this is not the full Swingamajig Festival experience with the cabaret, market, and swing dancing; we will be bringing you the best live music you would find at a Swingamajig Festival. This is a great opportunity for us, and we can't wait to bring the show to the Fleece in Bristol. We'll be taking care of the creative side of things, and our friends at Wave Promotions will be taking care of everything else. It is a great chance for us to get creative with the programming but take a back seat from all the energy-draining logistics that forced us to take a break this year.
So in association with Wave Promotions we are very excited to announce the Swingamajig Bristol All-dayer!

ESC bring the 1920s to the 2020s with their innovative brand of synth pop and electro swing.

Fronted by a powerful female double-act, the ESC delivers a consistently dazzling show. They've released 3 genre defining albums "Electric Swing Circus" (2013), "It Flew By (2017) and "Pleasure Seekers (2022). ESCape with the ESC and let them propel you to a dancefloor somewhere between Ronnie Scott’s and the Berghain.

Keep them dancing.
That’s the ethos that The Rin Tins have kept since their inception in early 2011 and since then the sextet have strutted from one stage to another playing high octane gypsy swing to the party hard masses.
These festival veterans have appeared on stages at Glastonbury, Shambala, Boomtown, WOMAD as well as Sömmersound Festival in Hamburg and headlining Fokus Festival in Görlitz, Germany.
With music that combines harmonies with swing jazz rhythms and pounding oompa beats, for the past 10 years The Rin Tins have been filling dance floors and festival tents across Europe.

🔥Funke and the Two Tone Baby

www.facebook.com/funkeandthetwotonebaby
Funke and the Two Tone Baby is a one man army. Uncategorised and uncharted. A blur of buttons and sweat. Powerful walls of grooving, dirty electronica and a whirlwind of energy walk a fine line between 90’s dance, electro-rock and alt-blues.
Created live and direct with loopers and samples, Funke and the Two Tone Baby sets the bar of how much sound a one-man band can produce, as fat dance beats and filthy synth basslines are juxtaposed by a beaten up blues guitar, sing-along anthems and glitchy harmonica. Layered songs of positivity and social harmony mesh perfectly with compulsive dance grooves and infectious riffs.
Over the last 10 years Funke and the Two Tone Baby has played over 1000 shows and each year his musical style and sonic output have grown and expanded along with a dedicated and cult following. Smashing a tour support with Dutty Moonshine Big Band and the accolade of biggest ever opening crowd at Beautiful Days Festival, Funke and the Two Tone Baby has proven he can hold his own on the biggest of stages, and against the most powerful of bands
