Sarah's Swing Set is
"Robert Stright is a brilliant, original vibist" according to Harvey Pekar, of Jazziz Magazine.   Stright has performed with Ed Schuller, Joe Lovano, Victor Lewis, Ed Shaughnessy and Seamus Blake.   His CD recordings with Scott Fields ensemble have received international critical acclaim.   Stright received his Doctorate of Musical Arts in composition at the University of Wisconsin.   Two of his compositions for percussion won the Percussive Arts Society international composition contest and are published by Ludwig Music Co.   He plays drums and vibes for Indianapolis Jazz Orchestra and the Stardusters Jazz Orchestra, Stardusters Swing Band, local jazz group Off Ramp, and has even tickled the ivories at the Malibu Grill.   Robert Stright and Sarah Flint produced the Sarah's Swing Set CD in his studio.

Sarah Flint was recently written up in Bloom magazine as one of the top 25 Jazz musicians in Bloomington.   Her voice has carried her overseas several times and all over the United States with Dr. Bop and the Headliners (as one of the Valendez Sisters, Ruthy).   Her vocals appear on over 30 CD's including John Mellencamp, & John P Strom.   Sarah played flute and guitar for the singer/songwriter duet, The Royals.   Their live CD was one of the first recorded at WFHB Community Radio.   Those from Bloomington remember her as "the nightingale of the (Bloomington Community Farmer's) market" playing solo often there since 1991.   Her sister has been a huge influence and can be heard in NYC with a group called Dave's True Story.   For the last 5 years Sarah has been the vocalist in the Stardusters Swing Band and the Stardusters Jazz Orchestra, and sings 4 songs on their recent CD.   Sarah teaches guitar and voice in downtown Bloomington and produces live shows and CD's for her students.   She and Bob began Sarah's Swing Set in 2003 and produced the Sarah's Swing Set CD.

Ron Kadish is one of the most active session and live bass players in Indiana, and is also highly in demand as a teacher.   He is a veteran of stage and studio, with over 20 years experience in performance and recording.   Mr. Kadish has appeared in orchestral settings including the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra and the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra; backing international acts such as the Moody Blues, John Denver, Marian McPartland, and Tito Puente; and regularly performs with regional favorites in the Midwestern jazz, rock, classical and world music scenes.   He has been recorded dozens of times, and his playing can be heard on projects by a diverse sampling of artists, from rocker John Mellencamp and jazz luminary David Baker to award winning CDs by the Jerusalem Symphony and the Philharmonia a Vent.
