Details:
Solomon Douglas is a jazz pianist and bandleader, whose various bands have played at countless events in North America, Asia, and Australia in the past nine years.
In 2006, Solomon toured with the world-famous Glenn Miller Orchestra as their pianist, and is now working as a full-time musician, bandleader, and dance instructor.
The Solomon Douglas Swingtet is a ten-piece dance band whose repertoire is rooted in that of the Basie band (I Needs to Be Beeâd With, Two for the Blues, Splanky, Shorty George, Jumpinâ at the Woodside, One OâClock Jump) and that of the Ellington band (Rockinâ in Rhythm, Saturday Night Function, East St. Louis Toodle-Oo), with other big-band standards and classic jazz tunes thrown in as well.
âYour disc is excellent, perfect for dancing. Congrats on releasing an exceptionally good recording.â âJim Wheatley, swing DJ (Atlanta, GA)
âThis is an awesome CD, yâall. Totally worth it just for âNew Orleans,â âSouth,â and âEast St. Louis Toodle-Ooâ alone!â âBreanna Perry, swing DJ (Nashville, TN)
âHOLY SCHMOLY! This is a wicked awesome CD! I highly suggest you all get it now! DANG, Solomon, you out-did yourself on this one! Thumbs up!â âJeff Miller, swing DJ (Virginia Beach, VA)
âI just got mine, and I'm telling you guys, doesn't matter if you like Blues or Bal, there are songs that's great for everyone. Go get it!â âPatty Holmes, swing DJ (Houston, TX)
âLast night at the weekly Penn State swing club meeting, we danced to several tracks from Solomonâs new CD. Each one was a big hit with the dancers, getting everyone out on the floor! At first the DJ mixed Solomonâs tunes in with others, but the club members were so excited to hear the new CD that it was decided to just let it play. The variety of tempos, the quality of the arrangements, and the talent of the performers involved kept everyone excited both to dance and to listen. But how can you not be itching to dance to such great stuff??â âAnnabel Truesdell, swing dancer (State College, PA)
âThis is a really good CD. Its not often that a single CD has so many good tracks on it. Not just the standard fare, there is some really well thought out selections and some real emotion in the music on here. This is even better than the previous CD. DJing from an album with this production quality and energy is the next best thing to a live band. Itâs definitely worth having for anyone who DJs, or as a CD to practice to.â âDan Newsome, swing instructor and DJ (Seattle, WA)
âWe DJâd your new CD at Penn State. Iâm not sure if we intended to let the entire CD run, but Isaac played one, and then I had to hear âShorty Georgeâ and âJumpinâ at the Woodside,â and it just snowballed into an awesome night of music and dancing. So, the new CD is great.â âDaniel Repsch, swing dancer (State College, PA)
