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.
Chance Hayden's Desert Room All-Stars will be swingin' and singin' for us at Thursday Swing this week! The band evokes the sounds of the storied 1950s and 60s era Desert Room, the former high-class hang of Portland's underworld. Hayden and his trio (along with rotating guests) will be performing an assortment of mid-century swing, jazz, blues, and Latin styles. Be ready to dance till closing call tonight!
