Colorado Swing performs an exciting variety of great music including classic Big Band Era standards as well as popular Broadway and Las Vegas show style arrangements. 

Colorado Swing Big Band   Our full-size big band creates that exciting sound you rarely hear anymore.   directed by Mark Manges

We feature the area's top musical talent including great vocalists. Our arrangements feature the music of Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Tommy Dorsey, Glenn Miller, Harry James, Stan Kenton, Frank Sinatra, Les Brown, George & Ira Gershwin, Rodgers & Hart, Hoagy Carmichael, Cole Porter, Patsy Cline, Buddy Rich, Brian Setzer, Gordon Goodwin and many others. At our summer festival events we perform a variety of new music in addition to our dance and fundraiser standards.

Colorado Swing has a smaller version of the big band directed by Matthew Floyd.  This group has the music, style and excitement that you expect, easily fits on a smaller stage, and may be just the right size for your venue.
