Steven Feifke Big Band with Veronica Swift - Until The Real Thing Comes Along

[@timchapman5567]

Wonderful music.

[@pianoman7652]

Veronica Swift is Simply the Greatest vocalist I've heard in Years.... Sensational !

[@lorantsaska]

Veronica Swift is the best!!!!!!!!!!

[@StevenFeifke]

She is truly incredible!

[@zacharykoplin6543]

Second only to Fats Waller himself

[@jonathankajeckas4739]

Veronica Swift in this performance evoked the best of Sarah Vaughn and Ella Fitzgerald. Awesome horns, beautiful arrangement. Thank you!

[@CharlieHoliday369]

THIS is a Jazz singer and one of the finest!

[@BrianKrock]

Just gorgeous singing, writing, and playing. Could listen to this all day!

[@StevenFeifke]

Thank you man!

[@BertDaanje]

Beautiful! Her voice recalls memories of the greatest jazz singers from the 20e century. 👏🎼🎙🎷

[@StevenFeifke]

agreed! Veronica is incredible

[@rboaxx9065]

With a great conviction in her voice!

[@MATATONORTIZ]

Awesome!

[@stuartdryer1352]

My thoughts exactly.

[@williamporter2223]

One of my favorite female jazz vocalist 🎹 🎤 🎷

[@gerardvanleemputten2063]

From Belgium fantastic

[@КонстантинДобровольский-ц7н]

Сколько невероятной мощи у Veronici A!!!! Блеск .Нет слов Сказать нечего.!!!!!!

[@tatum_langley]

GOD this song builds GORGEOUSLY

[@roberthelms1737]

That was outstanding Veronica, just the right amount of emotion without going over the top.

[@jeffreycraven8154]

Love you band Steve, love the late '40s/early '50s sound like what your band performs here.

[@johnbililake9725]

I heard 5 seconds on insta and I needed to hear the whole thing immediately

[@StevenFeifke]

Thanks so much John!

[@michaeltutty1540]

Absolutely fantastic. It is wonderful to listen to a musician who knows how to tune the notes to perfection. A gorgeous rendition of the beautiful melody.

[@DevonDandy]

Veronica Swift is something else, superb diction and immaculate phrasing, always on right on key and can really hold a note.

[@readwritejazz3483]

SF, your arrangements SWANG SO HARD!!! You MUST make a full studio album with Ms. Swift! You owe it to the music, to posterity, and to all of us who want to buy that album!

[@shaddjimenez4524]

It would be cemented in history

[@shaddjimenez4524]

Don't forget Andrew Gould.

[@peterhaslund]

Such a great voice, near perfect pitch without losing any warmth or emotion. Sweet.

[@StevenFeifke]

couldn't agree more! Veronica is amazing

[@michaeltutty1540]

Not perfect pitch at all. A talented musician who knows how and when to sing out of tune to make the chords work.

[@TheSoulagent]

Near perfect pitch? How do you know?

[@peterhaslund]

You got ears for a reason@@TheSoulagent

[@peterhaslund]

@@michaeltutty1540 Do you understand the word "near" or do you need to google it?

[@curtwesser9787]

First off the bandleader is fantastic the way he arranged that classic Sammy Cahn song but that young lady wow she can just hit you and drop the mic wow!

[@michaelfoxbrass]

Rarities; A burning ballad. A knowing voice. Swinging the sunshine on a cloudy day!

[@StevenFeifke]

Thank you, Michael!

[@jimbrown1559]

Is there another singer the scene today who could have done this? I can't think of one! Only someone with her total immersion in the history of the music! And a great sounding band with a fine chart.

[@carlyryan4439]

I love that storytelling! When the big band music started to play, the female sing a jazzy song because the male hero experiences a connection with her while she is singing and can have her. She tends to be out of the main hero's reach because she sings like a nightingale. I love that kind of music! First class!

[@rockymountainjazzfan1822]

Well, the "real thing" has definitely come along with Veronica Swift. Without much fanfare in the mainstream of popular music, female vocal jazz has made a real comeback in the last 20 years or so, and Veronica Swift is one of those latest shining lights. Ms. Swift definitely has the "pipes" and the jazz chops to join the female jazz singing greats. Some might say that she is just "channeling" greats likes Ella, Billie Holiday, or Anita O'Day, but Ms. Swift manages to put her own spin on all those influencers. Here she shows how a swinging jazz ballad should be sung. Also, a mellow, but swinging outing for the band. Jazz lives!

[@adecolborne1339]

Steve, you need to record a whole album with VS, stunning combination

[@shaddjimenez4524]

Still second this!

[@fromtexasbygod]

2nd best jazz arrangement & vocal of all time after Feifke/Swift “On The Street Where You Live”!

[@MrGonzaga1975]

Terrific!!!

[@jazzboy18]

Incredible! Veronica is a powerhouse!

[@curtwesser9787]

The band is fantastic but this young lady is amazing

[@mgmmgm1599]

We love your music very much. Veronica is also fantastic and beautiful singer.

[@mikeq6384]

Steve, INCREDIBLE ARRANGEMENT on this one, great marriage of your arrangement, big band, and the true talent of Veronica Swift !

[@yonkel0]

Good lawd...who could down vote this?! Buttery. Nice arrangement and great playing by the band and Veronica mesmerizes.

[@scottluster4873]

Veronica did a version of a song my aunt, June Christy, was associated with called "Interlude." I was so impressed, I not only bought it, but I did so with a tear in my eye. What a marvelous singer!

[@yversorrod1529]

This is nothing but pure EXCELLENCE!🤩👌🏼

[@billwentz5014]

[@rogerdavis5447]

Man, just keep discoverin' all your "knockin' it outta the park" material, and the terrific young talent you are gathering together to get it out there. This ol' dog lovin' your new tricks..... and that voice? Heard her with @chimeyonthebass and it was swoonworthy enough; with an entire big band? Well, I done laid down and died..... and gone to heaven. Guess it'll do...... 💥⭐❤️

[@isaacvelazquez7937]

Steven I obsessed over every single post you have made along with people like Chad LB, Jacob Mann, and Dan (Chimilenski??? We went to neighboring high schools and MYAC). I can’t express how grateful I am for every single arrangement you do. It literally has become just an inspiration to practice that same standard non stop til you post a new one. I wanna respect your future endeavors and time as much as possible, but PLEASE keep em frequent:’) I love them beyond belief, thank you❤️

[@StevenFeifke]

Isaac! Thank you so much for this beautiful note. You're the best!
