ABOUT THE BAND
Swingularity Big Band was founded in Lund in 2020 and plays everything from 1930s hits to modern tunes. We want to give the big band tradition a place to be seen and heard! For dancing, at parties, or maybe just on an ordinary Tuesday. Alive, close, and completely here and now.

Greetings from the band:
“Get ready to be transported back to the golden age of jazz, where the rhythm is hot, the horns are blazing, and the dance floor is always calling. Swingularity Big Band and Cats’ Corner invite you to a vibrant late spring night with magnolias abloom and a proper big band live on stage!

Diving into the timeless Miller, Basie and Ellington charts, let’s use all our power and passion to bring the sweet swing era back to life for a single night. Make no mistake, though, this isn’t dusty history. It is live and absolutely alive, in a show where you all on the dance floor play the main part.

Whether you’re a longtime lover of swing dance or discovering it for the first time, we promise you an irresistible beat that’ll keep your toes tapping. So sit back – or better yet, get up and swing – and let the music take you away.

Hope to see you all at Moriskan!”

 

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!
