Celia Jones and The Glass Marbles

By Neil Swainston

This is the story of Celia Jones and the Glass Marbles, a fictional big band with a jazz/blues-infused sound in the 1930s–40s, charting their rise, their music, and the tragic accident that ended their run.

While fictional, the story of Celia and the Glass Marbles celebrates the history, sound, and spirit of the 1930s–40s musical era, in which big-band swing, blues grit, and raw emotion created sounds that still echo through time.
