About Swingin Shepherds

The Swingin' Shepherds Your Choir for Quality Entertainment What best described the music of the Swingin' Shepherds? What words might characterize their unique and appealing sound?

Well, to begin with, the Swingin' Shepherds are a jazz/blues, pop trio, with a very full and dynamic sound. The music swings with a fresh energy, provided by the keyboard and guitar, and yet the music can be laid back and mellow, with the vocal stylings of a versatile, female vocalist. Their music is easy to listen to, and quite familiar, consisting of great standards as well as contemporary interpretations of popular music today. The sound is guaranteed to please a variety of musical tastes. It is energetic and lively, and yet, not overpowering. Either way, it is clear that the Swingin' Shepherds can provide your establishment, or soiree with a very entertaining and enjoyable evening of music.

The Swingin' Shepherds feature Dave Gillespie on the keyboards. Dave has played extensively throughout the area as a jazz/cocktail pianist for many years.
