White Heat Swing Orchestra
at Huron Ave
This long-time hot 14-piece big band swing orchestra was named “Boston's Best Dance Band” by Boston Magazine. These musicians recorded the soundtrack to the movie Dick Tracy on the Warner Brothers label, and have performed in concert with Cab Calloway, Tony Bennett, Lou Rawls, and Joel Grey. Come see the group that rocked Boston’s Roxy nightclub as its house swing band for 5 years and has gigged for the Clintons!
Tom Nutile Big Band
at Huron Ave
Think Basie and Sinatra, Benny Goodman and Peggy Lee. The Tom Nutile Big Band had made a big name for itself recently in the New England Swing Dancing circuit. With their roots are in the swing era of the 1930s, 40s and 50s, this 15 pc band's mission is to entertain!
