Third Coast Swing is a Ludington band heavily influenced by jazz of the 1930s and 40s.
The group especially draws inspiration from Django Reinhardt and his band, The Hot Club Of Paris.
Normally, you can only listen to Third Coast Swing if you find a live performance, but now the band is releasing its first album: Dreams of Toulon.
Guitarist Stephen Plummer says Django Renhardt had always been a part of his life.
“I had always thought, one day when I had the time I would like to learn his music.”
Third Coast Swings debut album was released June 30th.
The band will be performing live all summer, including one this Saturday at 5:00 at the Ludington State Park amphitheater.
