About
Pianist/composer Nelda Swiggett has been mostly on the perimeter of the Seattle scene for the past decade. She wasn’t a regular on the local club scene, this after establishing herself as a formidable composer and pianist. Since the live music world came back to life after the pandemic, she has been a frequent participant at local jam sessions, and has reimmersed herself in playing live dates, including this, her second go - around at the Seattle Jazz Fellowship.
Swiggett’s tunes are built around sturdy melodies, taking on a folk vibe that can swing at will. Her piano style is very clean and understated, always lagging a bit behind the beat before catching up in tidy and dynamic fashion...
