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.
The BundyBand "Sweet Preserves" Jazz Band will be bringing the music of traditional New Orleans jazz and swing this week. The band's music is characterized by relentless rhythms, nostalgic harmony, and group improvisation. Some of the songs the band performs are 100 years old, but they still bring an electric feeling to their music (and the dance floor).
Our Foundations Lesson is an hour-long beginner lesson from 6:45PM-7:45PM (and is included with the dance cover!). The lesson is great for folks who are new to dancing, curious about dancing, or just love dancing! Topics will lean more towards Lindy Hop or Charleston depending on the band playing each Thursday night. We hope to see you there before the dance starts at 8pm and we kick off another fun night!
