Calling All Zombies VIII with Holy Crow Jazz Band

Category: dances

Calling All Zombies! It’s time to heed the bell toll for another ghastly, ghoulish and grim Halloween party at Boston Swing Central. It’s our 8th year and Jessy Carolina has a new band in store for us!

Holy Crow Jazz Band is a New York City based ensemble that specializes in American traditional jazz music from the 1920s and 1930s.  The band’s repertoire includes many instrumental numbers that were written or were inspired by great musicians of the past such as King Oliver, Kid Ory, Bix Beiderbecke, and Red Nichols, just to name a few. Lead vocals by Jessy Carolina are reminiscent of the antiquated musical stylings of Bessie Smith, Louis Armstrong, and Ma Rainey.

The lesson tonight will feature the creeeeepy choreography of Michael Jackson’s Thriller line dance!  To show of your mad MJ skills, Thriller will be performed later on in the evening (performing is, of course, optional).

The Eight Thirty ACT solo jazz troupe will also be debuting a brand new Halloween routine!

Check out Holy Crow Jazz Band here:

To get you excited about Thriller, past BSC madness…
