Harlem Hots Shots in Talang 2007 Final

The Harlem Hot Shots didn't win the final of the talent show Talang 2007 on TV4. Too bad. But then again, performing three times on prime time tv is great exposure both for the dance company itself and for lindy hop in general. Here is the Harlem Hot Shots performance in the final of Talang 2007.



In the introduction of the video clip you can see them dancing and showing of some of their costumes at their dance studio "Chicago" in Stockholm. There was a live band playing Bugle Call Rag, does someone know who was in the band?
