Monthly swing dance night returns with more live music.... for a flappin' swanky, prohibition style fun time!

All Girls. All Swing. Vintage music with modern attitude - Cheeky, sunny, stomping, floor-filling tunes from an all-female ensemble with bags of musical talent and irrepressible charm. The Tricity Vogue All Girl Swing Band regularly fill the dancefloor at vintage parties and balls with their 20s, 30s and 40s swing sound, throwing much-loved vintage tunes, pop numbers, and Tricity's cheeky originals into the mix.

The band perform an eclectic repertoire of vintage 20s, 30s and 40s swing, plus Tricity's irresistibly catchy original tunes, and several modern pop favourites mischievously retroed up to sound like they come straight from the olden days.

"The Tricity Vogue All-Girl Swing Band are not only full to the brim with top-quality, virtuosic musicianship, they bring a level of glamour and theatricality rarely seen on the London jazz scene. The wickedly delicious and charismatic Tricity effortlessly charms and delights her audience, inspiring even the most traditional of jazz lovers to jitterbug to the band's take on '80s hits and '90s Brit pop with wild abandon, leaving the dance floor breathless and begging for more." Passing Clouds

Plus Stranger Than Paradise's DJ Sacha Dieu on the decks keeping it swingin!
