Our Take

Dutch Swing/College Band's latest album, "Dixieland Goes Dutch," is a delightfully cheeky romp through the whimsical world of jazz. This eclectic ensemble of musicians brings a fresh and fun spin to the traditional Dixieland sound, blending old school New Orleans brass with a dose of Dutch charm.

The band's playful energy is infectious, with each member showcasing their musical prowess while maintaining a sense of lightheartedness throughout.

Standout tracks like "Cloggin' Along" and "Stroopwafel Shuffle" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend genres, creating a wholly unique listening experience that is as impressive as it is entertaining. The musicianship on display is top-notch, with each member bringing their own flair to the mix, resulting in a sound that is at once cohesive and dynamic.

Overall, "Dixieland Goes Dutch" is a refreshing take on a classic genre, sure to bring a smile to the faces of both jazz aficionados and casual listeners alike. So put on your wooden shoes and get ready to groove, because Dutch Swing/College Band is here to show the world that jazz knows no borders.
