Central Coast News

Making up the foursome is Michael Falzon (We Will Rock You, Rock of Ages), Luke Kennedy (runner-up of The Voice Australia, The Ten Tenors), Matt Lee (We Will Rock You, Rent, Grease, Mary Poppins)and Ben Mingay (Wonderland, House of Bond), complete with a 9-piece band, the gang will deliver a modern and audacious take on all-time swing classics from Sinatra and Buble´, to rock and pop hits from Oasis, Farnham and The Proclaimers.

Timeless swing staples like Ain’t that a Kick in the Head, I’ve Got You Under My Skin, Mack the Knife, Have You Met Miss Jones and New York, New York are given a contemporary make-over while more recent hits like Wonderwall, Jump, Tainted Love and Crazy Little Thing Called Love are cleverly re-imagined with a swing feel.

The four friends will bring audiences along for the fun as they perform timeless hits such as ‘Fly me to the Moon’ and ‘My Funny Valentine’, recapturing a bygone era, with liberal dashes of contemporary charm and cheeky irreverence.

Created for the 2014 edition of the Adelaide Cabaret Festival where it brought the house down, it’s now the Central Coast’s turn to get a kick out of Swing on This and its star-studded collection of some of Australia’s most talented leading men.

In a setting that evokes the cool of a big-band dance club from a bygone age, Swing on This will transport audiences back to a time when showmanship and repartee were integral parts of song and dance routines.
