The City Rhythm Orchestra has been dazzling audiences for many years with their distinctive style and  sound: stellar horns, a rocking rhythm section, innovative arrangements and versatile vocalists all combine to create an extraordinary experience. Their wide range of music awards proves the point, having been repeatedly honored in both Pop/Rock and Jazz/Swing categories. The Philadelphia Inquirer calls them "Philly's premier swing outfit."
