Introducing Leeds City Stompers
Get ready to be transported back in time by the infectious energy of the Leeds City Stompers—a vintage trio with a big heart. Hailing from Leeds, this band specialises in the vibrant sounds of the 1920s and 1930s, blending blues, swing, ragtime, and early jazz into a foot-tapping, smile-inducing performance.
A Sound Straight from the Roaring Twenties
What makes the Stompers so special is their dedication to authenticity. They perform on period-appropriate instruments—think 1930s resonator guitars, washboards, vintage drum kits, banjos, and double bass—all while dressed in tweed suits and brogues. Their repertoire includes classic favourites like “I’ve Got Rhythm”, “Sweet Home Chicago”, “Shake, Rattle & Roll”, and other timeless tunes that feel both nostalgic and fresh.
Energetic and Engaging
Though compact in size, the Leeds City Stompers never lack for presence. All three members sing, and their dynamic stage show involves swapping instruments and harmonies to create a lively experience. They’ve played at major UK blues and jazz festivals, private events, weddings, and venues like Zeffirellis Jazz Bar—where their vintage flair and energy really shine.
Why You’ll Love Their Performance
If you’re looking for an evening that’s as charming as it is toe-tapping, Leeds City Stompers tick every box. They bring not just music, but a joyful celebration of bygone eras, wrapped in warmth and showmanship. Whether you want to tap along or simply sit back and soak in the nostalgia, they’re the kind of band that brings people together—and reminds us just how joyous vintage blues and swing can be.
