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

Phil McGowan & the Easy Winners, BSC favorites, will join us at Extreme Dancesport for another high energy gig!

The Easy Winners always get the crowd moving when they play for us and and this Friday will be no exception.
