Sorry to inform you, but Boston Swing Central is suspending the dance until further notice.  Please be safe, stay healthy and keep dancing at home, do some solo jazz or learn the shim sham.  You can find some great videos on YouTube.  Take care and we hope to be back dancing sometime soon.

Yes, this band will have Rich Greenblatt on vibes as well as big band stalwart Steve Taddeo bringing his best Gene Krupa beats.  Also Billy Novick on clarinet, Eric Baldwin on guitar, Sarah Gardner on vocals and the very talented band leader, Justin Meyer on bass.

The Swing Legacy

March 06th, 2020 | Category: dances

The Swing Legacy, a six piece “little big band” has been a fixture of the Boston swing dance scene since 1991 and BSC since the beginning, playing with a style informed by the great big bands from the swing era. Their repertoire concentrates on classic big band swing music including many Duke Ellington and Count Basie numbers ideal for Lindy Hop and swing dancing. Much of their great catalog of songs showcases their phenomenal singer, Debby Larkin. It promises to be a night full of killer-diller arrangements that will keep you dancing all night long!

Lesson (included w/ price of admission): 8:00pm – 9:00pm
Dancing: 9:00pm – 12:00am
General Admission: $16
