[edit] Profile

Contrarily to what the name could seem to suggest, its sound is not inspired by swing music, only Franco-ontarien folklore, which is adapted with techno music. The name comes from the Quebec French term Swinger, meaning in this context to dance, and the phrase Swing la bacaisse dans le fond d'la boîte à bois!, a classic, almost cliché expression used in Quebec folk music parties.
