Jul 6
All-American Swing
Boston Swing Central is ready for another great 4th of July celebration, this year 4th of July is on a Wednesday, so we’ll actually be doing our dance and annual back-patio BBQ on Friday after the 4th, this July 6th.
Perhaps this year, we’ll have even more people than previous years do to the holiday being midweek. So come out and grab some dinner before the dance and hang out in the back of the Whistle Stop as the BSC staff grills you up something delicious. If you could bring a yummy side dish or dessert that would be great…we’ll have plenty of burgers and dogs, and some sort of veggie options too!
Musically, this dance will be All-American swing, and that means that we’ll be true to the Red, White & Blue and only play American artists! Americans like Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald and Sidney Bechet (who sounds French but is as American as apple pie). So, come on out and celebrate all that is American with American music and an American dance: The Lindy Hop!
Wear red, white, blue or all three or any combination on this night!
