Boogie Kathi Swing Project

The Boogie Kathi Swing Project takes its audience back to the golden era of swing. A time when music not only entertained but moved hearts and filled dance floors.

Inspired by the atmosphere of jazz clubs and bars from the 1930s and 1940s, this ensemble represents handcrafted music, swinging rhythms, and genuine joy of playing.

The repertoire ranges from classics by Benny Goodman, Fats Waller, or Louis Armstrong to modern interpretations with its own signature. The band creates a rich atmosphere - sometimes elegant and restrained, at other times full of energy and zest for life.

Led by pianist and singer Katharina Alber – alias Boogie Kathi – the band unites musicians who are deeply rooted both stylistically and technically in the traditions of swing, boogie woogie, and blues. The fixed line-up includes Bernhard Fauster on clarinet & vocals, Gösta Müller on double bass, and Walter Metzler on drums.
