The Jangles
Seattle's
premier country swing band
The Jangles perform an acoustic version of Texas swing music that is
winning fans in both jazz and country circles alike.
Borrowing from Milton Brown, Bob Wills, Hank Williams , Gene Autry, Asleep at the Wheel, Patsy Cline, Jimmy Rivers and others, they put a contemporary edge on a timeless brand of 30's and 40's dance music.
Their music is perfectly suited for dancin' or listening.
The Jangles
are both a great country band and a great cowboy band.
The
Jangles offer Two Programs:
