If I lived in Asheville I would definitely go out and see them perform, why don't you take a look at their MySpace page to see where they are playing next? I would love to have their cd.
There's a lot of good things in Asheville right now. Like Sugar Foot Stomp, an "old-fashioned fast-dance and hot-jazz" dance weekend that coming up July 13th-15th. They will have workshops taught by Chad Fasca and Midori Asakura Fasca who will teach dances like charleston and peabody. And of course a lot of hot jazz music.
Check out this video clip with Chad and Midori from the 2004 American Lindy Hop Championships where they won the Fast Dance division dancing a combination of peabody and charleston.
What do you think of the Firecracker Jazz Band? Tell me.
Wowzers! Just got their album off I-Tunes and it is fabulous. Great energy, great choice of material. Really tight.
