To underline this versatility, Swingthing recently had the pleasure of performing for Camilla Dallerup and Ian Waite in a ballroom dancing weekend held at the Lodore Falls hotel on the shore of Lake Derwentwater near Keswick. A prominent feature of “Swingthing” is the fabulous voice of Ronnie Walker who styles himself on Frank Sinatra. Ronnie has been on the circuit for many years and has performed in venues all over the country. He is not limited to one particular style , however, and is perfectly at home with rock n roll and other dance music. He is ably accompanied by Brian Melville -keys. Brian has been a His first love is jazz music but is not averse to playing any type of music when the occasion arises. Howard Wilson - bass. Howard is a new addition to the band but has made an instant impact. Dave Thompson - drums. Dave is a highly experienced musician having played throughout Europe and the middle east.

Review of SWINGTHING by Josh on 21st January 2012
Dear Brian, Josh and I want to thank you and the band very, very much for the great music on our wedding day at Solsgirth House. The afternoon music was perfect and really set the atmosphere in the gardens, everything was so relaxed and happy. And the evening music - well, what can I say. The variety was brilliant and really did get everyone up dancing....even if the dancing was a bit dubious at times. Lots of people have commented on how they enjoyed the music, and I have even passed on your contact details to a few friends. You are a very talented bunch. Thank you again for helping to make our wedding day so memorable and so much fun. Our official photos are on - www.dukestudios.co.uk. Click on search/home at that point and weddings 2006 comes up - we are under Emma and Joshua. Have a look if you are ever bored. Our very best wishes to you and the band- we have very fond memories of you. Take care, Emma and Josh Robinson.
