Back in the Swing


Back in the Swing is the tenth studio album by Australian theatre performer, singer and TV presenter David Campbell, released through Sony Music Australia on 26 April 2019.

Background

At a concert in Adelaide, Campbell played the little-known Joe Cang track "Make Love" and watched as the crowd responded. This was repeated for the next few nights. Campbell said "And every time I did it the dancefloor filled by the first or second chorus, even though they didn't know the song. It's a feelgood song, and it's modern and it's new and it doesn't feel like it's come out of an LA factory". Campbell began collaborating with arranger and producer Chong Lim and his on-stage musical director Joe Accra, to develop Back in the Swing, determined to mix traditions with new ideas.
