SWINGIN STARS

One of Dominica’s leading bands, The Swingin Stars were an early popular band formed in 1959 in the Virgin Lane.

They were originally known as the Swinging Teens and changed their name in 1961.

Their first major show was at the 1960 calypso competition at carnival and they continued to gain fans across the Caribbean in the early 60s and aslo at present.

They recorded in Barbados in 1967, releasing "Sparrow Party" backed by "Tom Cat Mambo".
They have continued performing and recording to the present, and have released at least eleven albums.
Swinging Stars have continued to back –up the calypsonians adding much more flavour to their already unremarkable lyrics.
