In light of the fact that I am leaving for Lindyfest today I want to feature the band that will be playing there, Jonathan Stout and His Campus Five.
I first stumbled across the group while cruising itunes (I don’t remember exactly what I was looking for) and immediately purchased some of their stuff. I started playing some of their tracks at the venue I dj and got a decent response (I really liked them but their style wan’t something the dancers were used to). Some of my favorite tracks of theirs include
- Half Tight Boogie
- Shoo Fly Pie
- Lester’s Bebop Boogie
I haven’t played them much lately as I’ve been really getting into the New Orleans feel but they are a great band and I look forward to dancing to them this weekend.
Check out their website.
I’ll come back and update you with what I thought about dancing to them live after Lindyfest.
