Charleston Chasers

The Charleston Chasers are the most authentic group performing hot swing music from the roaring twenties and thirties. The band features ten superb musicians and a wealth of vocal talent, all of whom bring to the stage the fun and excitement of the period. Led by percussionist Debbie Arthurs the band celebrates its 25th Anniversary in 2012 and sounds as fresh as ever with new arrangements and classic standards from the golden age of musical creativity.
