What do you get when you combine a love of music and dance with an eclectic background that includes two decades of college radio and a shady garage band past? Hire me to DJ your next dance and find out for yourself!
Lindy hoppers will dig my mix of the Swing-era sounds of favorites like Basie, Fitzgerald, Ellington, Lunceford, Armstrong, and Calloway with small group and vocal Jazz, R&B, and more. As a West Coast Swing DJ, I blend classic Blues, Soul, and Funk with Gospel, R&B, and contemporary hits. Of course, there's always room for a little Waltz, Shag, or even Hustle.
You can tune in to my live365.com show to get an idea of some of the music I like to play (but keep in mind that the show is designed for listening, not dancing).
I can also provide live sound reinforcement for small combos and Swing dance instruction. Call me at 860-887-5600 to discuss your event.
