Blending the infectious Swing rhythms of the 1930s and '40s with witty original songs and outstanding musicianship, The Hep Chaps have become one of Britain's finest retro Swing outfits. Formed by David Howarth and John Wallace after meeting in the West End production of Good Rockin' Tonight, the band combines authentic vintage style with a fresh sense of fun and irresistible musical energy.
John Wallace's remarkable career has seen him perform with JoBoxers, The Big Town Playboys, the James Taylor Quartet, Little Willie Littlefield and Robert Plant, while David Howarth also appeared in the original West End casts of Buddy and Good Rockin' Tonight. Together, they lead a first-class band whose effortless performances capture the spirit of the Swing era without ever sounding like a museum piece.
Mixing timeless standards such as Zing Went The Strings Of My Heart, Rosetta, Who's Sorry Now?, Deed I Do and the title track Crazy Rhythm with infectious original material, this is an album full of warmth, humour and superb musicianship. A delight for fans of Swing, Jump Jive and vintage Rhythm & Blues.
