Gunhild Carling
Gunhild Carling
After a swingin' and sold-out debut last year, Sweden’s “Queen of Swing” returns for two nights. Whether she’s singing jazz standards, playing one of many instruments (trumpet, trombone, harmonica, oboe, harp, flute, recorder or jazz bagpipe, to name a few) or juggling and tap dancing, Gunhild’s sparkling showmanship is a can’t-miss feat of talent. And just wait for the finale—spoiler alert—she plays three trumpets at once! Through her masterful homage to New Orleans jazz and swing, you’ll feel transported to another era.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Gunhild performs and tours with her own band, and performs in several configurations, from solo to orchestra to symphony. In 2013, she performed with her Carling Big Band at the Royal Palace in Stockholm for King Carl XVI Gustaf's Ruby Jubilee. She has also competed as a celebrity dancer in Let’s Dance as well as Sweden’s Dancing with The Stars. She has been a featured vocalist and instrumentalist in several of Postmodern Jukebox's songs, including a 1920s jazz swing version of "Material Girl", and a 1920s hot jazz cover of ABBA's "Dancing Queen.”
