Producer's Note: "Casey MacGill is a swinging legend, leading bands of all shapes and sizes, from The Blue 4 Trio to the Casey MacGill Orchestra. Casey even had a stint on Broadway with the musical Swing! In 2012, Spuds asked Casey to write a short theme song for his video news show, "Swing Nation". Spuds may no longer be producing the show, but the Casey MacGill Orchestra has released a stellar full big band 30s-style recording of the theme. 'Lindy, bal, charleston too, rhythm is our golden rule, Swing Nation, people grooving together!' - Jesse"
