This Thursday we’ve got a seriously special night of two-stepping planned for y’all at . 💃🪗🔥
And if you’ve ever been lucky enough to stumble upon busking down in the NYC subway system — you already know. If not, now’s your chance. This incredible Bronx-based Norteño group first stopped us in our tracks one random afternoon underground and we immediately knew we had to bring them into the Swamp orbit. Their heartfelt songs, subway-forged sound, and beautiful accordion-driven music have already started building a real following around the city — and Thursday marks their Jalopy debut!
We’re pairing them with , a killer steel-guitar-driven Cajun band from Western Mass, for an evening celebrating two dance traditions that share the same beating heart: the accordion. Expect crowded dance floors, waltzes, two-steps, Norteño classics, swampy blues, dance lessons, and maybe even a little crossover magic by the end of the night.
Presented in partnership with Association for Cultural Equity as part of their “In Great Accord” program.
✨ Cajun dance lesson by at 7:30pm
✨ Norteño dance lesson (also by Sara) during the break
✨ Sliding scale tickets ($10-30) to keep the dance floor open to everybody
Come dance with us Thursday night at Jalopy. This one’s gonna be special!
