Summer News
Happy Summer everyone! We’ve started off the season right with some scorchingly hot weather in London over the past couple of weeks - we’re excited to share with you what we’ve been up to, and what’s coming up!
Central America - May 2026
Starting off, we had the most fantastic time in Central America earlier this year, enjoying some beautiful weather, stunning scenery in both Panama and Costa Rica, and some of the best coffee we’ve ever had! The highlight was, of course, our performance at the stunning Teatro Nacional in San José, and an inspiring workshop with brilliant local choir Laus Deo the following day. Here’s a snippet of the choir’s beautiful farewell to us:
New Recording Project Begins!
Since our return to the UK, we’ve been hard at work on a new recording project - this marks the first album-length project that the new line-up has undertaken, and we couldn’t be more excited to share more details with you all later on this year. As you can tell from the video below, we’re taking it extremely seriously and having no fun at all:
VoxPop Festival, Lucerne
Later this year, we’re thrilled to be making our debut at VoxPop Festival, Lucerne - our first time back in Switzerland for almost a decade! A relatively new European a cappella festival, it has quickly gained popularity and has previously featured our wonderful, talented friends The Real Group.
We’ll be headlining the festival on 9th October 2026, and look forward to meeting lots of new faces there!
Wilton’s Music Hall - November 13th 2026
Finally, we’re delighted to announce that we will be returning to Wilton’s Music Hall for the 4th year in a row on Friday 13th November at 7pm. We can’t wait to present our brand new program, Close Mic Classics, and will be making an exciting announcement about our upcoming recording project too! You can grab a ticket here - and be sure to come and say hi to us in the bar after the show!
That’s all for now - we can’t wait to see you at a show soon!
Love,
The Swingles x
