Live Music
We are excited to be offering the best lineup we've ever seen at a Lindy Exchange.
Thursday Night
(only included with "Complete Pass")
Saxophonist Fil Lorenz has been swinging Bay Area
audiences since 1998. His star-studded "little BIG band"
bridges the gap between the classic big bands of
the 1930's and the smaller, lighter groovin' bands of
the 1950's.
Friday Night
The dazzling Barbara Morrison has been featured on over 20
recordings. She has dazzled fans of a wide aray of genres from
traditional Jazz and Blues to Gospel and Pop. Her melodic voice, with
its two-and-a-half-octave range, is known worldwide, as are her rich,
unique, soulful and highly spirited interpretations of both, familiar
Jazz and Blues classics and original contemporary tunes. Equally as
striking is Ms. Morrison's ability to belt out down-home,
soul-stirring Blues. Her impassioned renditions of old and favorite
torch songs are nothing short of breathtaking.
Saturday Night
Gordon Webster
Featuring an appearance by Barbara Morrison
Pianist Gordon Webster is one of the most sought after musicians in the
lindy hop world. His tremendous musicianship and passion, supported by his
first-hand knowledge of social dancing, have inspired lindy hoppers at
hundreds of dance events worldwide. Drawing on influences as diverse as
Fats Waller, Count Basie, Oscar Peterson and Gene Harris, Webster serves up
a smorgasbord of styles unified by one characteristic: irresistible
danceability.
Gordon has played two prior SFLX exchanges, and is by far and away
the highest ranked band we've ever seen in our follow-up surveys,
which is quite a feat considering the bands we've seen at SFLX.

Sunday Night
The Hot Baked Goods are the newest hot jazz band to hit the streets of San
Francisco. Comprised mainly of swing and jazz dancers, they got what it
takes to make your booty shake! Their authentic style and sound is
reminiscent of early jazz from the 1920s and 30s. You can listen and dance
to their rhythmic styles every Saturday in Dolores Park, and 1st & 3rd
Sundays at Amnesia in the Mission. The Hot Baked Goods are thrilled to
bring their music and love for swing to the San Francisco Lindy Exchange.
