James Lambeth has established himself as Bath’s top male jazz and swing vocalist. His smooth vocal styling has gained a fine reputation since he moved to the west of England. He is front man for various bands in the south west as well as working in TV, stage, radio and film. The Lambeth Swing is comprised of the area’s best swing musicians with a wealth of experience between them. They have built up reputations in their own right playing with various groups across the country. Lambeth’s band play the Great American Songbook as it should be, smooth and swinging. Their repertoire includes everything from Ellington and Mercer to Gershwin and Cole Porter. They even sometimes play swinging versions of a few Smiths songs! Lambeth’s silky vocal technique always promises an evening of 30’s sophistication. With two EP releases under his belt, James is looking to release his first album in the autumn of 2011.
