Come join us on Friday December 20, 2024 at Kelson Hall (330 St. Paul Street in Kamloops) for a Christmas themed masquerade dance. If you are new to swing dance come for 7pm for a one hour lesson. We hit the stage at 8pm and play until 11pm for your dancing pleasure. Trip the light fantastic! Kick up your heels! Let your inner Fred and Ginger rule! For tickets head on over to the Lindy site. Hope to see you there!
Beyond Brass would be thrilled to provide entertainment for your event. In terms of type and style of music, we play a variety ranging from Big Band classics of the 1940’s (In The Mood, Little Brown Jug, Tuxedo Junction), to the 1950’s (Rock Around the Clock, Bobby Darin-style Mack The Knife), to the 1960’s (Beatles I Saw Her Standing There, James Brown I Got You, Vehicle, and others) on up into the 1970’s and 80’s with popular tunes of the era including Stevie Wonder Superstition, Pick Up the Pieces and more.
We recently added some jump-swing tunes such as Zoot Suit Riot, Jump Jive and Wail, Cadillac Baby and a few others with local musician and blues singer-guitarist Davis Langevin. We have other styles in our repertoire including some Latin, polka, and waltz numbers. We have performed at awards ceremonies (Kamloops Chamber of Commerce Business Excellence Awards) where we have done Oscars-style play the recipient on and off the stage fill-in music, and would be happy to do that if that is part of the plan for the evening. Let's us know how we can help make your event a huge success!
