“An otherworldly multi-talented performer who seems with each recording and global performance to be gracing and wowing us from another dimension, Gunhild Carling – aka Sweden’s “Queen of Swing” – is a show-stopping vocalist, multi-instrumentalist (trumpet, trombone, harmonica, oboe, harp, flute, recorder, jazz bagpipe) and bandleader who artfully and passionately bridges the current 20s with the Roaring Twenties of a century ago. Whether she’s regaling crowds with her soulful, high spirited originals or nostalgically jazzing up contemporary pop classics, she’s the ultimate take away our cares crowd pleaser. When she greets us, as she does with the title of her new album, with Good Evening Cats, we know we’re in for a grand old time like no other.”
Gunhild Carling has always been quite a character. Her musical abilities are simply brilliant (whether playing trombone, trumpet, flute or even bagpipes), she is a joyous singer who can put across a heartbreaking ballad or a joyous romp, she seems to possess limitless energy, and her performances are always quite great fun with her foundation being New Orleans jazz and swing. Jazz Historian Scott calls her consistently exhilarating, swinging, and unpredictable.
