Gunhild Carling

Gunhild Carling is a one-woman jazz spectacle. Known as Sweden’s “Queen of Swing,” this internationally acclaimed multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and entertainer delivers a high-energy vintage jazz show like no other. From roaring 1920s classics to modern hits done in swing style, Gunhild blends musical mastery with show-stopping flair—often playing three trumpets at once in her jaw-dropping finale.

A true polymath, Gunhild commands 11 instruments (including trombone, trumpet, flute, harmonica, and jazz bagpipes), tap dances, juggles, and sings with soulful power and vintage charm. Her performances channel the spirit of New Orleans and big band jazz, earning her appearances with Postmodern Jukebox, Count Basie Orchestra, and headline shows from Las Vegas to the Royal Palace in Stockholm.

Her musical prowess and charisma have wowed global audiences on Sweden’s Got Talent, Let’s Dance, and America’s Got Talent, and her viral jazz videos have earned her 50+ million views and the YouTube Silver Award. She’s shared the stage with jazz legends and rising stars alike, always delivering exuberant joy and timeless swing.

Whether reimagining ABBA’s “Dancing Queen” in hot jazz style or transporting crowds with classics like “Sweet Georgia Brown,” Gunhild Carling is a time-traveling jazz force who turns every stage into a vintage party you’ll never forget.
