The Duchess of Swing: Sax, Soul & Sophistication<\/p>\n

Commanding the stage with a signature blend of vintage glamour and modern energy, The Duchess of Swing is far more than a performer\u2014she is a high-octane musical experience. A triple-threat talent, she seamlessly weaves together her prowess as a powerhouse vocalist & DJ & if you’re lucky the dulcet tones of her live sax riffs.<\/p>\n

The Sound of “Femme -Disco Live ”<\/p>\n

“Femme – Disco Live” reimagines the golden era of disco dance. Shifting away from standard club tracks, The Duchess performs live vocals and occasional improvisational sax over a live DJ set of strictly female-led disco. From the soaring anthems of Donna Summer and Chaka Khan to the sophisticated grooves of Chic and modern nu-disco queens, she breathes new life into the genre.<\/p>\n

She doesn\u2019t just play the party\u2014she brings the party.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
