SUMMARY:Dance: Joy Street Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Joy Street — one of our most popular bands, based on attendance — showcases vocalists Dina Blade, Rockin’ Rafe Wadleigh and Lucia Neare. Because this 12-piece version boasts a full horn section plus a couple of violin virtuosos, Joy Street can deliver big-band swing in one moment and a divine waltz the next — and before the evening’s done it’ll rev your motor with a mix of Blues, Latin, Country Two-Step, R & B — even some Elvis and The Beatles.\nThis dance even features Bluesman Jesse Hagopian and his kick-ass harmonica. Here’s the YouTube link to Jesse performing with Joy Street at the January Masquerade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVPAGePnnEQ\nIf you’ve never attended the Joy Street’s annual Masquerade, Saturday’s dance will give you a taste of that stellar event’s music.\nCome, meet us on Joy Street.\n\n\n“A shout out to the band. Joy Street did an amazing job. Probably the most dance-able band I have ever danced to. They played EVERYTHING. They also sounded great. I Loved the band!!!”\n—Scot Thomas; After a New Year’s Eve Dance\n“I really love dancing to Joy Street.
