The Singapore Slingers, an 18-piece “retro- foxtrot” orchestra complete with banjo, accordion, strings, drums, and all, recreates the sounds from the days of vaudeville. One of the most unique musical acts in Dallas! Specializing in the music of the 1920s and the 1930s, the Slingers’ music is reminiscent of Paul Whitman, Ted Weems, and The California Ramblers. Their repertoire includes one-steps, two-steps, waltzes, rhumbas, paso doble, marches and, of course, fox trots (oriental and straight up). You’ll hear great songs like Lena From Palesteena, Singin’ in the Bathtub, Nagasaki, Carolina in the Morning, and Old King Tut. Utilizing vintage arrangements, the group provides a truly authentic sound. Their music is upbeat, energetic and – most importantly – fun!
About The Singapore Slingers
The Singapore Slingers, founded by Matt Tolentino, are based in Dallas, Texas, and have been active since 2007. The orchestra members range in age and occupation and come together for the love of the music. The earlier music of this era has a completely different sound and is often overlooked and overshadowed by the big band music of the late 30s and 40s. This music is enjoyable to everyone and the Slingers have proved this in a variety of venues and events they have played. They present the music just as it was way back when- call it historic preservation!
