Green Mountain Swing is an all-volunteer 17-piece, non-profit big band with a home base in central Vermont. In addition to jazz standards, the band plays a wide range of jazz-infused genres and styles, including Latin, funk, bebop, hard bop, vintage rock and blues.
GMS has appeared in many northern Vermont venues, including the Discover Jazz Festival, the Barre Heritage Festival and other area festivals, concerts, weddings and dances.

All net proceeds of Green Mountain Swing are dedicated to a scholarship fund for young musicians in Central Vermont, helping them with expenses for private lessons, workshops, and music camps. The Green Mountain Swing Scholarship Fund is a 501(c)(3) non-profit and accepts donations.
As well as supporting the Scholarship Fund, our playing provides us with the opportunity to continue to grow as musicians and, in the jazz tradition, to mentor the next generation. Band members range from their teens to their 80’s.
