Sheffield-born vocalist Paul Pashley brings Swings A 21st Century Thing to Matt & Phred’s for a very special Manchester launch of his brand-new LIVE album.
Joined by his punchy ensemble, including musical director Adrian Wilkinson, Paul delivers a fresh, sophisticated and energetic take on swing, reimagining some of the biggest songs of recent decades alongside timeless favourites.
Expect unexpected takes on tracks including Pulp’s Disco 2000, songs by Tones and I, Harry Styles, Ed Sheeran and Billie Eilish, alongside classics such as Pure Imagination and LOVE — all given the groove, elegance and attitude of cool swing.
Known for his charismatic performances and powerhouse vocals, Pashley has entertained audiences around the world, from exclusive private events to Manchester’s AO Arena, where he performed in front of more than 20,000 people at the celebration of the life of Manchester boxing legend Ricky Hatton.
The Manchester launch will also feature limited-edition LIVE album artwork, with exclusive vinyl and CD releases available to purchase on the afternoon.
Swings A 21st Century Thing is a celebration of musicianship, creativity and the energy of a real live band — bringing together swing classics, contemporary pop and modern-day anthems for an afternoon that crosses generations.
Swing reimagined for the 21st century.
