The Hermlins Band (Berlin)
Swing is the Thing is making a grand comeback, featuring the three Hermlin family members from Berlin, accompanied by a rhythm section in a particularly captivating concert. Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, and Tommy Dorsey — all brought together on one stage with the Hermlins.
Rachel Hermlin, Andrej Hermlin, and David Hermlin are among the prominent names in Europe, known for reviving and renewing the classic sound of the swing era's golden age. They are considered leading figures in Europe in preserving and revitalizing the classic swing tradition of the 30s and 40s. It’s not just a repertoire — it's an artistic mission.
Andrej Hermlin, a pianist and conductor, has dedicated his life to recreating the original sound of the great swing orchestras of the golden era. With authentic arrangements and meticulous playing style, he brings back to the stage the elegance and energy of the time. Alongside him, his children:
Rachel Hermlin, a singer with an impressive stage presence and a clear, precise voice, masterfully combines stylistic authenticity with contemporary freshness, and David Hermlin, a drummer, singer, and charismatic performer who brings the rhythm, smile, and virtuosity of great swing artists to the stage.
The family connection between them creates a rare dynamic: deep listening, genuine joy of playing, and contagious energy that captivates audiences across Europe.
In a show filled with style, rhythm, and sparkling nostalgia — they remind us of one simple thing: swing is not a memory of the past. It is alive, breathing — and uplifting to the heart.
The Swing Is the Thing is an elegant, rhythmic, and joyous musical experience.
