The 9:20 Special is proud to present a night of great music for swing dancers:

For the first time in ten years, internationally known band leader George Gee and his ten piece swing band The Jump, Jive & Wailers are playing for dancers at the 9:20 Special. Prepare yourself for an amazing trip back to the days of big bands, beautifully ballrooms and amazing dancing!

About the band: George Gee & The Jump, Jive & Wailers are world-class performers. The band has a mammoth tour resume, including top swing clubs across the US, a two-week tour of top North Carolina concert halls, and powerful "Battles of the Bands" in Los Angeles, Philadelphia and New York. A favorite band of Frankie Manning, George Gee & The Jump, Jive & Wailers are the first modern era American big band to lead a swing dance in Tokyo. They were even summoned to perform for rocker Ozzy Osborne's 50th birthday party in Beverly Hills!

Well-versed in the art of swing, the band plays regularly, in New York, where the swing era exploded. These guys let loose and really blow, resulting in stunning, high-energy rockin' grooves. The devilish rhythm section peppers the mix with cutting-edge variations, delighting listeners and challenging dancers to keep it fresh!
