This 7-piece swing band is recreating the music that filled American dance halls in the ’40s and ’50s. Inspired by the great western dance bands of Bob Wills, Tex Williams, Spade Cooley, and Billy Jack Wills, The Barn Door Slammers feature authentic instrumentation and a repertoire of Western Swing that draws on traditional fiddle tunes, blues, big band swing, and country ballads.
