Strada Swing

Swing music with a little French Twist!

Strada Swings music will take you on a journey to the romantic city of Paris with its  intimate acoustic sound inspired by the small jazz groups that filled the cafés of the  1930s and ’40s. You’ll hear French favorites like “La Vie en Rose” and “C’est Si Bon,” “I Love Paris,” and “April in Paris.”​ Inspired by Django Reinhardt and the Hot Club of France, the band brings together vocal jazz with accordion, and guitar, and bass. Over the years, Strada Swing has played jazz clubs, swing dances, weddings, private events, and held residencies at Le Grand Restaurant and Le Petit Paris in Downtown Los Angeles. ​

​

​

Isabel is joined by  renowned jazz accordionist Frank Petrilli, who is widely regarded as one of the foremost experts in jazz accordion worldwide. Active in both the accordion and jazz communities across the West Coast and throughout the U.S., Frank has performed at numerous major accordion festivals locally and internationally. He was also a protégé and close friend of the late, great jazz accordionist Frank Marocco and made television appearances as an accordionist on the show Mad Men.
