Well guessed, Willow. Western Swing takes in jazz/big band influences and crosses them with C&W to produce a highly infectious brand of dance music which was popular in the States in the 40's. As Cashman quite rightly says, the Swing Commanders are an excellent band but, looking at their gig list, they are unfortunately playing at a country festival in Cornwall on Oct 15th.
