Jazz in June

Rick and I are back from Frankie95 in New York City and more or less recovered :-) It was an amazing event to be there with thousands of other lindy hoppers from all over the world. Here is a link to the video that was shown at the event of people all over the world doing the Shim Sham:

Towards the end of June there are a number of jazz events
here in Idaho Falls to dance at.


Saturday, June 20th: Jazz on the River Jazz Festival Saturday
noon-9pm,at the Snake River Landing. This is a free event!
Music starts at noon with the Mike Banks Jazz Quartet, followed by
the Craig Green Group at 2:30 pm, then The Kevin Young Jazz Quartet
at 5 pm, and closing out the day at 7 pm is the
Kristin Korb Trio from Southern California.

Tuesday, June 23rd: The Jazz House Big Band is playing the EIRMC
Snake River Concert 7-8pm. Rick and I have danced to them before
and they play classic big band music -yeah!

Saturday, June 27th: Kevin Young Jazz Quartet is playing at the
Cellar. There isn't a ton of room to dance, but the Cellar has a
great atmosphere and Rick and I really enjoy dancing to this band.

We hope to see you all out dancing soon!
