Swing from Paris live in Wedmore

Experience Swing from Paris live on July 2nd

Swing from Paris is scheduled to perform at Wedmore Village Hall on July 2nd, 2026. The ensemble specialises in recreating the sounds of 1930s Parisian jazz, drawing inspiration from iconic artists like Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli. Their performances typically feature a blend of original compositions and classic standards within the *gypsy jazz* or *jazz manouche* genre – characterised by virtuosic guitar work, dynamic improvisation, and a lively, energetic stage presence.

Wedmore Village Hall is a community-run facility located in the village of Wedmore, Somerset. Originally constructed in 1938 as a social hub for local residents, it has undergone several renovations and expansions over the decades while retaining much of its original architectural character. The hall serves a variety of purposes including hosting local events, performances, film screenings, and providing space for community groups. It is managed by a committee of volunteers dedicated to maintaining it as a vital resource for Wedmore and the surrounding area. The building’s main hall offers a relatively intimate performance space suitable for ensembles like Swing from Paris.
