The members of the ACME Swing Co. have played the Bay Area for about a year now, but don't be fooled. This group of hard swinging professionals are no babes in the woods. With various members having played with the likes of Tommy Dorsey, The New Morty Show, Benny Miller and Lee Press-On, these seasoned swing veterans have proven themselves to be a delight to see first hand. So strap on those suspenders and shine your wing tips.... it's on baby!!

Local retro outfit Acme Swing Co. personifies the '90s swing movement -- young-timers in natty suits paying respect to old musical forms, dislodging themselves from the time warp just often enough to add gentle irony to the too current trend. Their original songs stay true to the form but show the band's affinity for chronicling history as it happens. ACME Swing Co. proves that, though some young musicians act as if they've been swinging all their lives, the smarter ones admit their first exposure to the stuff was through Looney Tunes.

Singer-arranger and frontman Tom Beyer, who has doubled as stand-up bassist for the New Morty Show and who formerly played with the Nails and Al "Jazzbeaux" Collins, has formed his second incarnation of Acme Swing with lively new personnel. Sharply attired in zoot suits and spectator shoes, this year-old seven-piece band have played the Fillmore, Great American Music Hall, Bimbo's 365 Club, the Larkspur Jazz Festival, as well as doing regular stints at the Hi Ball lounge.

~ Max Young - Hi Ball Lounge Productions

"Those of you out there who are socially conscious to the swing scene... Don't miss out on the high energy, full strength originals of The ACME Swing Co. to deliver the nostalgic notes of that era to your ear. With their rockin' originals and their high style mobster-like attitudes... they make the performance a must see!! Their sound will sweep you off your feet!"

The ACME Swing Co.needed little introduction as to how to shake up a dance hall at The Derby. Living proof that Sonoma State grads can put their music degrees to profitable use, the seven alumni recently taught LA swingers that those Bay Area cats have rhythm. The zoot-suited players began their set with mellow pieces showcasing their smooth sound and tight, stylish form. Spreading their name like quickfire up and down the coast, The ACME Swing Co. have a strong future ahead.

Dressed in suits and spectators, the band members look as sharp as they sound. Playing innovative swinging originals and well-crafted arrangements of timeless standards, ACME Swing Co. puts on a high energy show that offers a much-needed breath of fresh air into the music scene.

"I have booked The ACME Swing Co. for a number of club and corporate functions. These guys are professionals, easy to work with, and put on a phenomenally energetic and exciting swing show!!"
