The BSC New Year’s Eve Vintage Ball is a swing dance party harking back to the lively 20s, 30s, and 40s! Vintage black tie dress up is encouraged (but not required). We will all bring in the new year together with a midnight sparkling cider toast!

This event, held this year at the stunning  Arlington Town Hall, features the AMAZING Baby Soda Jazz Band from New York City. You  will feel like you have been transported back in time. This is sure to be a wonderfully festive night of great music and dancing.

Check out the band!

BOSTON SWING CENTRAL IS CLOSED TODAY.

Many of our dancers, volunteers, and musicians are spending time with their friends and families today and we want you all to enjoy that time. Have fun drinking eggnog, wearing cheesy sweaters, hugs, and (hopefully) Lindy bombing your family gatherings.  Travel safe!

We look forward to ringing in the new year with our BSC community at our New Year’s Eve Vintage Ball! See you there!

Merry Merry Christmas, Happy Happy Hanukkah, Joyous Joyous Kwanzaa, or warm wishes toward whatever you celebrate this season!   Tonight our DJs aim to give you their best Holiday Swing tunes and general good cheer.

This will also help us dance off all of the extra holiday treats and meals we plan on consuming…

The 18-piece Beantown Swing Orchestra will be joining BSC yet again to share their gift of swinging big band tunes! The Beantown Swing Orchestra is known for their stellar performances of vintage Swing Era and Sinatra classics arranged for that big band sound that inspires great, memorable dances. The band even adds their own flair by adding in some original songs and arrangements! And, since the holidays are fast approaching, don’t be surprised if a few holiday tunes make it onto the set list. As usual, the BSO will have some of its well known and talented vocalists along with them!

Check out the below video for their version of Jimmie Lunceford’s “Tain’t What You Do” and see just how fun dancing to the Beantown Swing Orchestra is!

The Swing Legacy, a six piece “little big band” has been a fixture of the Boston swing 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!

Here they are playing “Roll ‘Em Pete” for BSC!
