Bandets egna ord:
Swingularity Big Band startades i Lund 2020 och spelar allt från trettiotalshits till helt modernt. Vi vill ge storbandstraditionen plats att synas och höras! Till dans, på fest eller kanske en vanlig tisdag. Levande, nära och fullkomligt här och nu.
LINDY HOP
The main dance on Wednesdays’ is Lindy Hop, a swing dance originating in the 30-40s in Harlem, NY. But you are always welcome to dance whatever you like or just hang out

### BALBOA
Imagine yourself gliding across the dance floor, completely in tune with the vibrant jazz music. Balboa makes it possible as you share a perfect embrace, effortlessly communicating even when the tempo becomes lightning-fast or the music gets wonderfully intricate. The dance becomes a beautiful expression of the music’s rhythms, riffs, and melodies, allowing you to showcase your style and interpretation with grace and fluidity.
Sounds hard? We promise we’ll make it easy!
