The LiveTanzBar is a live band social organized by the Dresden Hepcats. Regional swing bands perform here once a month. The spectrum ranges from big bands (e.g. NTSO) to small but fine jazz combos (e.g. Blue Alley Jazz Band).
The LiveTanzBar shines not only because of the experience of live swing music in a ballroom atmosphere, but also because of its high profile in the Dresden swing dance community, so the evening is always a good opportunity to meet swing dancers, get to know them and of course to DANCE!
Before the live band starts, our dance instructors will show you a few swing dance basics from 8 p.m., making the evening perfect for newcomers or course beginners to get a taste of the swing dance experience.
Everything is coming back. After bell bottoms, mullets, cocktail parties and free jazz, now even swing. Swing fever, which has been smouldering for several years, especially in the USA, has now surprisingly spread into a worldwide epidemic and has not even stopped at the Dixieland metropolis of Dresden.
So infected and far from cured, the NEW TOWN SWING ORCHESTRA plays swing music to listen to and, of course, to dance to.
Absolutely irresistible, fresh, danceable and relaxed, the NEW TOWN SWING ORCHESTRA presents music that is backed by a whole attitude to life. As Duke Ellington said so aptly: "It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)".
As usual, admission to the LiveTanzBar is free for club members (voluntary cultural contribution possible). Non-members pay €15 admission (reduced €12) at the entrance.
