We’re excited to have two great bands playing for you at CLX 2011:
Saturday Night: Top Shelf Jazz
Top Shelf Jazz – Direct from Lucifer’s drinks cabinet, a band whose original tunes are so distinctive and licentious that they spawned their own delectable style: ‘Filthy Swing’. Devout fans know the ‘Jazz Age’ never finished and that Gatsby lives on! Born in the dark cabaret dens of Europe, the inimitable style and rakish banter of Top Shelf Jazz make them a most notorious and revered band. You will be driven to drink and dance with wild abandon. So lock up your morals, break open the liquor and leave your troubles at the door!
The Shirt Tail Stompers (Sunday Afternoon Tea Dance)
We’re also delighted to welcome back the Shirt Tail Stompers, familiar to swing dancers across the UK and the world!
“The Shirt Tail Stompers are heavily influenced by the great American band leaders and musicians of the 20s, 30s and 40s. The London based band are bringing swing music back into the mainstream with their own suave and raucous stamp.
Equally at home in concert halls, festival stages and cabaret bars, our musician’s previous performances include The Royal Albert Hall, Cafe De Paris, Glastonbury Festival, Lovebox and Brighton Fringe Festival. They’ve even travelled across the world, playing to thrilled audiences in Australia, Italy, France, Greece, Austria, Germany and… Cornwall!”
