The Sweet Nothings is a traditional jazz group from Bloomington, led by Trenton Perry on guitar.

They are influenced by the traditional music of New Orleans and artists such as Django Reinhardt, Fats Waller, Louis Armstrong and many others of that era. Aside from early jazz they also dabble in other genres such as Western Swing, Musette, Boleros and more. Some tunes you may recognize from their vast repertoire may include βOn The Sunny Side of the Street,β βAll of Me,β and βLa Vie en Rose.β They bring fresh, new energy to the genre and have become a recent favorite of the swing dance groups in central Illinois. Whether it's on a stage or street corner; retirement home or burlesque show, The Sweet Nothings have been sharing their spin on early jazz classics in every nook and cranny they can find in central Illinois.
