   About Phat Cat Swinger
Greetings & welcome to the Phat Cat Swinger Myspace Page!

We're your one stop shop for feel good music and smiles!

If you enjoy the classic sounds of Bobby Darin, Louis Prima, and Frank Sinatra mixed with the new swingin' sounds of bands such as Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Royal Crown Revue, and Brian Setzer... You've made it to the right place.

It was an unusually cold night in August of 2002 when founding members Marco, Matthew & Will got together & decided to bring back a sound that had gone missing from the music scene.

Booming toms, walking bass lines, jumpin’ rhythms on guitar, roaring horn lines, & the smooth vocals of Tim Porter is what they found after a dedicated search to find the right musicians for this creation.

Seven years strong, this band is fueled by the intensity that can only be felt when the perfect combination has been made.

Currently one of the hottest live swing bands to come out of the Southern California underground scene, Phat Cat Swinger attacks SWING head on & makes it their own.

The release of their self titled Debut album takes you from an up tempo foot stomping jazz, to a sultry tango in the night and sends you back to a time of nostalgia & youth.

From humble beginnings in a schoolhouse to a sold out evening at the prestigious House of Blues, and even a powerhouse performance at the risque Playboy Mansion and beyond, Phat Cat Swinger delivers the goods & makes you beg for more. Watch out for the next revival of SWING music like never before!
