WELCOME TO STEVEN GREEN’S SWINGREEN WEBSITE: www.swingreen.net
Hey there, this is Steven Green. I perform vocals as Swingreen accompanied by custom musical backing tracks (the virtual band) . Hear classic songs of great swing, jazz and pop writers and artists past and present. While I have my own style, I do try to capture the spirit of the original artists.
Come to where I'm performing (see Events) and relax and listen, or dance or just socialize with someone special or friends and hear the vocals of Steven Green’s Swingreen.
Below you will find my Demo Songs. Hope you can take a few minutes to hear some of them. For my demos and my live performances I customize the backing tracks as to the song’s key, length and structure and in a few cases, as noted, I dub in my own back up singing for harmonies, recording each vocal track separately and in some cases add my own drums.
CURRENT FEATURED DEMOS: Black Velvet in the style of Alannah Myles and Fly Me To The Moon in the style of Frank Sinatra.
Black Velvet was written for Myles by her boyfriend, about Elvis whose portrait was often painted on black velvet, and who used a hair dye named Black Velvet. It was inspired on a bus full of Elvis fans riding to Memphis attending the 10th anniversary vigil at Graceland, in 1987.
Fly Me To The Moon was included on Sinatra’s 1964 album It Might as Well Be Swing, accompanied by Count Basie. The music for this album was arranged by Quincy Jones and heavily influenced by a previous version of the song by Count Basie. When Sinatra decided to address it with the Basie/Jones combination they recharged it into a straight swinger ...”which explodes with energy".
**SPECIAL ADDITION**: At the bottom of the demos: As Good As I Ever Was, sung by my 16 year old grandson, Jimmy in the style of Toby Keith.
