My favorite Tennessee swing band and my favorite craft beers are coming together for the first time on the night of May 12th! The Avondale Brewing Company opened for business towards the end of last year, and upstairs they have a beautiful 3,000 square foot WOODEN floor in a historically restored building with exposed brick walls and cool city views.

Now here's a special one! Solomon Douglas is coming through Birmingham! As everyone knows, Solomon's a tough guy to get w/o a $100 ticket to an exchange or workshop. The opportunity to see him at a place like the VFW in Birmingham is a once a year thing! Solomon is a dancer, composer, and musician. He knows his stuff in ways most of us have yet to understand. He. Will. Do. You. Right!
Also, if you're new to dance, this is a fun place to get started. You can hit up the beginner lesson at 7 with the dancing starting at 7:30.
What a Dance! We PACKED the monkey! We had people that had danced for years and people who were just starting! We had High School students and college students. We had young professionals and retirees. We had the Huntsville crowd as well as people from Nashville, Birmingham, Memphis, Knoxville, Atlanta, and Auburn! The only problem the whole night was finding space on the dance floor!
In November, we have a treat! We've got a weekend of back-to-back badass bands. The weekend starts off Friday with Christabel and the Jons at the Red Cat in Birmingham! Christa and the band will be bringing her wonderful appalacian folk swing to a great Birmingham venue.

The Red Cat · 2901 2nd Ave S · Birmingham, AL 35233
Christabel and the Jons are coming back to the Red Cat for another awesome BHAM JAM party. There will be a beginner swing lesson from 7:30-8:00, and then things will be swingin'' the rest of the evening. Christabel and the Jons are a Tennessee swing band with a beautiful sound. So whether you want to dance or not, come eat, drink, and be merry with us and enjoy the awesome music, people, food and drink at the Red Cat. Can't wait to see you all there!
