The Swingles

Midwinter has always been a time for feast and celebration, and the London A Cappella Festival is no exception. Festival co-hosts The Swingles serve up a banquet of music entitled 'Winter Tales' inspired by the coldest season and the coming of the new year. With folk- and jazz-inspired original songs, crystalline vocal textures and immersive staging, The Swingles weave musical narratives that evoke ice-bound worlds, blankets of snow and fireside singalongs. Including songs drawn from the group’s brand new album ‘Yule Songs vol. II’.

The seven young London-based singers that make up today’s Swingles are driven by the same innovative spirit that has defined the five-time Grammy® winners since they first made waves as The Swingle Singers in the 1960s. Their annual closing performance at LACF has become a highlight of the concert calendar.
