The retro-swing unit Indigo Swing was formed in San Francisco around the sextet of vocalist Johnny Boyd, guitarist Josh Workman, bassist Vance Ehlers, drummer Big Jim Overton, pianist William Beatty and saxophone player Baron Shul. After kick-starting northern California's new school of swing, the group began touring around America and signed to Time Bomb Recordings in 1997. The group's debut All Aboard was released in July 1998. They followed with Red Light in 1999.

Red Light captures Indigo Swing's energetic update of swing and rockabilly. The album's warm, vintage sound comes not only from the band's healthy respect for musical tradition, but also from where it was recorded, Capitol Studio's Studio B. This attention to detail doesn't hamper Red Light's momentum, however, as dancefloor-friendly tracks like "Right Light," "Pop's at Hop," and "Love's Gonna Find You" prove. /AllMusic

A bit more of a purist album than the usual collection of retro-swingers, All Aboard includes several jump blues (the best of which are "The Indigo Swing" and "Regular Joe") plus a good downtempo swinger, "(Today's the Day) I'm Glad I'm Not Dead," and an intriguing cover of Willie Dixon's "Violent Love" (previously done by bands ranging from Dr. Feelgood to Skankin' Pickle). /John Bush, AllMusic
