SUPPORT Shout Section and Tatum Langley's NEXT HOT ALBUM!!

Donation protected
That's right folks, you heard it here first... Chicago's own Shout Section Big Band is in the process of cooking up ANOTHER burning hot big band album - "Tatum's Swingin' Session!" and we need your help to make the magic happen! In the wake of the band's successful previous album "Swing Forward!", we've invited Chicago native & internationally acclaimed vocalist Tatum Langley back into the studio with us to bring the world some more swingin' songs & twistin' tunes - and you know what they say: bigger is better & better is bigger... so we invite YOU to help be a part of our latest undertaking & contribute to the creation of the next greatest big band album on this side of the Mississippi (or so they're saying...)

Big Band albums are costly to make - especially if you record in a state of the art facility that can accommodate the wide range of instruments in our orchestra.

Every little bit goes a long way to support this project & the many musicians, engineers, etc. involved, and ANY pennies you can spare, we appreciate massively!

Check out "I Just Found Out About Love" ft. Tatum Langley from our last record, "Swing Forward!" below:


READ MORE ABOUT SHOUT SECTION BIG BAND:
The Shout Section Big Band was formed in 2007. Since then, we've been entertaining audiences at swing dances, weddings, corporate events, city concerts, festivals and schools all over the Midwest. We've been featured on WGN TV, WBEZ radio, and on the nationally syndicated television show, "Vampire Diaries." We were hired by Amazon.com to perform 1940's swing for the opening of the Amazon Prime series "A League of Their Own." Shout Section holds prestigious residencies at Chicago's most storied venues such as Andy's Jazz Club and Fitzgerald's Nightclub. The band also performs a monthly dance for the lindy-swing community at the Roxy Theater in the Chicago suburbs.
Shout Section Big Band delivers top-class performances, featuring the best musicians in Chicago - you can't help but get up and swing!
