Swing into the Holidays with the Fisher Swingbirds

The Fisher Swingbirds will perform a holiday concert at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 3, in the Hermance Family Chapel of St. Basil the Great.

The Swingbirds, which began in 2013 as a pep band for Fisher Athletics, has changed over the years to become the University’s only jazz ensemble, playing a variety of genres and music. During the concert, they’ll play a selection of holiday classics, including “Santa’s Workshop Samba” and “The Christmas Song.”

This year’s Fisher Swingbirds include senior Marcus Lindenburg on piano; juniors Wes Harris on saxophone and Veronica Gibbons on flute; sophomores Josephine Porter on flute and Tyler Stoetzel on percussion; and first-year students Caleb Soria on percussion; Hannah Aiken on clarinet; and Felicia Karandy on trumpet.
