Producer's Notes: "Gordon Au is one of the hardest working trumpet players in the modern swing scene. When not moonlighting in various bands around the country, he leads his own group, The Grand St. Stompers. Their 2016 album "Do The New York" is a swinging homage to the band's home. Gordon captures the vibrant energy of the city that never sleeps in his talented compositions and arrangements. Gordon is a delight. I am honored to feature his original "Swang Thang", a relaxed riff-based celebration of the symbiosis between musicians and swing dancers. As Gordon so eloquently states in the liner notes, "There is simply nothing like the give-and-give of energy between dancers in motion and music in time—our mutual inspiration and communal perspiration meeting in a hot Manhattan ballroom." - Jesse"
