UPDATE: As of the current time of 1 pm, we're planning on being OUTSIDE...Umbrella Alert!!!(For either shade or a shower)
There may be (or not) a passing shower at or around concert time. This makes it so hard to decide on Out or In, but It's too hot to go inside, so we'll plan to be out.
Please bring whatever shade tents and umbrellas you want. We're setting up on the large flat space above the hall, so there's plenty of room to set them up so you stay more comfortable. See you later! And many thanks for your support!
TOMORROW.....FRIDAY, JUNE 12 AT 6 PM
SWING NOIRE opens the 2026 series!
Might rain, might not....just be prepared for anything, indoors or out, and we'll post here by early/mid afternoon when we can look at current radar so you know for sure.
Sustainable Eats offers up their delicious entrees and the Shrewsbury Mt School PTO sells desserts. Food service starts at 5:30.
Call it Gypsy jazz, hot swing, or jazz manouche... Swing Noire brings the unmistakable energy of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grapelli into the present day. Their music channels the sound of 1930s Paris... that smoky, kinetic mix of jazz, blues, and Gypsy fire... with their own distinct edge.
As Vermont’s longest-running Hot Club–style acoustic quartet, Swing Noire has been captivating audiences for years with music that’s as soulful as it is spontaneous. Every set swings between the lightning-fast precision of Django’s solos and the aching lyricism of Grappelli’s violin, reminding listeners why this music has never gone out of style.
Have a listen! And join us at the Meeting House, 88 Lottery Rd, Shrewsbury. Bring a chair or blanket, Indoors if rainy.
Pay What You Can.
