The JONNY HEPBIR QUARTET seen here at the Nighthawks Swing Dance Festival in Buckinghamshire.
We had a brilliant time last week at this great festival set in the grounds of the Blackpitt Estate. While a big chunk of the country was experiencing some dire weather, this fabulous gathering was basking in glorious sunshine.
The band played songs at tempos specifically for the Lindyhop and Balboa swing dance crowd. There were some fab acts on over the weekend and we held up the Gypsy Jazz/Hot Club banner with our all strings and vocal line-up, creating infectious rhythms for the lovely folk to get on down to!
There's a short video below of us getting lowdown and groovy with our version of the classic 'Exactly Like You'.
I'll upload another video clip next time with some more pics from the weekend.
