Isabel Smith
Los Angeles Jazz Vocalist
Strada Swing Jazz Band
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.
Swing music with a little French Twist!
