Late Night • Music
Soul Dancin’ with Fessa’ John Hook
Although the primary focus of the show is Dance music, Soul Dancin’ presents dance music with particular qualities.
Freestyle dances (i.e. improvisational)
Couples touch-dances
At one time or another all these dances were Taboo! Disenfranchised!
Grounded in R&B, Jump Blues, Jazz (which began approximately 130 years ago), and Crossover music of any genre which matches the mood and rhythm of Soul Dancin’.
Among the Soul Dancin’ music featured are
Jump Blues old and new
West Coast Swing
The Push
East Coast Swing
Some Jitterbug
The Whip
The Shag
The Bop
Minnesott Beach Bop (Shag style)
Panama City Bop (PC Bop)
Steppin’ (Chicago, et al)
Kansas City 2 Step
Rat Racing
The Never Before revealed roots of Shag
Fun. Romance. And the deep listening of Ensemble Improvisation (you know, a couple pushin’ the envelope together on the dance floor).
