Dance: Kelley Johnson and the Downton Sound

Spit-fire swing and blues-infused, Kelley Johnson and The Downtown Sound provide an infectious dance experience with the ever-grooving John Hansen leading the quartet with Kelley Johnson’s beautiful, soulful vocals. The band specializes in Swing, Jump Swing, Blues, Latin and Waltzes too. A well-seasoned swing ensemble with strong jazz roots, Kelley Johnson and The Downtown Sound will keep you movin’ and groovin’!

“…crisp, clearly executed, relaxed jazz vocals… Johnson has the control and sardonic elan of Carmen McCrae…”
— Paul de Barros, The Seattle Times
