7pm Balboa Taster lesson (After Supper Swing x Swing City Collab)
Get your tickets here: https://after-supper-swing.dancecloud.com/dance/37417
Get a taste of Balboa from the wonderful Faye and Ad (Swing City)! Balboa is a swing dance born on the crowded dance floors of Southern California and is a great option for packed dance floors and fast music - which will come in handy in a venue like the Actors.
You do not need any previous knowledge to attend this lesson.
8pm - 10pm Live Music from Björn & the Brothers of Rhythm
Inspired by the sounds of Lester Young, Benny Goodman, Louis Jordan and Nat King Cole this band, led by saxophonist, clarinetist and vocalist Björn McAteer Dahlberg plays classic swing with a good sense of humour.
The band was formed in order to play at the Jumping At The Seaside Swing dance events and are proud of being the ultimate swing dance band.
Björn is regularly seen as a sideman in a multitude of bands, including Harry’s Tricks, Flash Mob Jazz, The Swing Ninjas and Swing Zazou as well as portraying Lester Young in the Billie Holiday play “My Friend Lester” and thrives in the role as a leader. His band mates are some of the most sought after swing musicians in the area.
