SwingTide Combo

Jazzy Swinging Spirit Filled Blues at Agape’s Hanger June 2010

The Agape's Hanger was packed and the crowd was energized by God’s grace and fueled by the Holy Spirit!





And daring enough to provide a backdrop of music for such a spirit filled event was drummer, Michael Pignotti.



Grounded with God’s grace and gifted with musical talent and leadership skills Mike picked up a percussionist on the fly to accompany the combo at the Agape event…that decision in itself made more than just a few hearts smile!








SWING TIDE COMBO and Agape Flights “Soaring Celebration.” Kick-off went into the history books without a hitch!
Great Big Thank you to Jack Forseen who made it to the AGAPE HANGER, from a Friday night “gig” in Orlando. Of course we juiced him up with a FAT CUP of CAFÉ MOLIDO, from Santo Domingo.

Jack’s reply to the coffee- Brilliant pitch, as he laid down the melody for the SWING TIDE COMBO as only Jack and his Saxophone can.


Art’s name addresses just that "Art," the voice of Art’s guitar sends Art Carson’s solos on a dazzling path of uniqueness.

Dave Tucker on his electric bass guitar hung on to the groove that was ever present and prayerfully laid down.



I enjoyed the music and know that it will get even better as more opportunities for these musicians play together in venues that are supercharged with God’s grace!

God Bless.
