lyrics

(Vocals by Laura Windley)

The holidays are ending
The caroling is through
No more gifts to open
As our loved ones bid "adieu"

But anticipation tingles
Down through every single toe
And if you want to move your feet
You oughta know:

There's a charming winter town
In the west of Caroline
I'll be headed there
When the stars align

I'm gonna see some old friends
And I hope to make some new
And if you pack your shoes
Maybe you can Focus too

A certain kind of magic
Pervades every song I hear
And the big band swingin' will keep me singin'
Right into the brand new year

If you think the party's over
On December Twenty-Five
You're gonna change your tune
Just as soon as you arrive!

Latch Onto That Rhythm (Isolation Sessions #1)
by Michael Gamble and his Very Swinging Friends

Michael coordinated the recording of FOUR quarantine EPs this summer! You'll hear well-known swing musicians from across the US, and you'd almost believe it was recorded live in a club. Enjoy! Keenan McKenzie

Tribute to Louis Armstrong & His All-Stars / Live at Lindy Focus
by Gordon Au

I had the privilege of being a part of this show back in December. An unforgettable night of music, with many highlights, including stellar band-leading and playing by trumpeter Gordon Au. Keenan McKenzie
