The holidays are upon the Disneyland Resort and if you want to get into the spirit of the season in a jazzy way, stop by the Festival of Holidays in Disney California Adventure and check out Phat Cat Swinger. They play every weekend offering an energetic set of Christmas magic to those in attendance. The band has fantastic music and is also a lot of fun to watch. There is also some guest participation opportunities so be ready! Another fun side benefit is there are sometimes dancers who dance the night away to this swinging Christmas gig.
Here is a video taken on Sunday November 19th of Phat Cat Swinger in front of Paradise Bay where they perform each weekend:

Phat Cat Swinger has released three albums. They are “Phat Cat Swinger,” “Swing In Evolution,” and “Saturday Night!” You can purchase them on iTunes, Amazon, or Google Play. If you want to hear them live though, stop by the Disneyland Resort during the Holiday season and catch them Friday-Monday nights until January 7, 2018. Generally the set has been at 6:45 PM but check with the times guide for Disney California Adventure to confirm.
This is a wonderfully fun performance to catch every time you can. Make sure to not miss Phat Cat Swinger! Once you see them in action, you’ll want to see them again and again!
