Frankie 110 Party Night!
We are excited to have the Vic Lawrence 7 Orchestra back to play the swing era hits from the original charts of Vic Lawrence! They play classic songs from the greats like Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Artie Shaw, Lionel Hampton, Lester Young and more!
The Vic Lawrence 7 is a seven-piece swing band inherited from mentor Vic Lawrence, a tenor player who led the band to popularity in the 70s and 80s in Toronto. It is currently led by Toby Hughes (alto) and features Gram Whitty (bass), John Collins (drums), Jan Hughes (trumpet), Jacqueline Chia (trombone), May Akanuma (tenor), Nat Edgar (piano).
This is the weekend of Frankie Manning’s Birthday, one of the Lindy Hop greats of the Swing Era, who also played a key role in the international Lindy Hop revival of the 1980s and 90s!
Stay tuned for more details!
