Thursday Swing ft. The Newport Nightingales

Calling all lindy hoppers, balboa-heads, Charleston nuts, and shag enthusiasts! Come on out to Portland's longest-running swing dance, bringing you fantastic live jazz music on Norse Hall's magnificent floor.

Donning vintage attire and adorned with perfectly coiffed hairstyles, the Newport Nightingales will take you back to a time when life was simple and the music ever so hot. ​ Influenced by the stylings of the Andrews Sisters, the Boswell Sisters, and the Mills Brothers, this trio sings sweet melodies that would have become lost to the ages. ​ The girls sing in a 3-part harmony, with a focus from the 30's and 40s, with tunes like Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, Jeepers Creepers, Heebie Jeebies, and more!
