ABOUT THE BAND
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Bandits play a good range of tempos for Blues, Lindy, and Balboa social dancing. Based out of Albuquerque, NM, the Burque Jazz Bandits bring fun danceable music inspired by 1920s-40s swing jazz, with toe-tapping rhythms, sizzling instrumentals, and passionate vocals. Formed in the local swing dance community, their shared love of jazz brought the Bandits together. The band has three core members and lots of musician friends. They will form a quintet or sextet for this event.
