Swing Nights @ Akkordeonfestival 2017

What’s dancing without live music?

This is why we want to encourage musicians to play manouche swing, dancy jazz and hot stuff in 1930/1940ies-style!

** Shuffle Café presents: AKKORDEONFESTIVAL SWING NIGHTS 2017 **

Monsieur Pompadour (DE)


Monsieur Pompadour have this special mix of French Swing and Djangos Songs, joyful Swing music, ambitious jazziness and a pinch of melancholia.

** VBLE 2017: Friday Say Hello Party! **

Little Street Charmers (SI)

Little Street Charmers
PREMIERE!

The Little Street Charmers (SI)
Little Street Charmers are a New Orleans style street band playing swing music
from the 20’s and 30’s as well as their own compositions. They are the travelling
version of the Ljubljana based band Počeni Škafi, just wilder, crazier and more
unpredictable.

Surely, they are a band that needs to be experienced, capable of
making you dance for as long as your legs can hold you.

** VBLE 2017: Camp Party! **

Harlemania! (CZ)


They are back!

Harlemania! (CZ)
How we loved the genuine, original sound of this beautiful Big Band back at VBLE 2014!
The orchestra HARLEMANIA emerged in 2011 from the tediously dozing jazz scene in Prague, Czech Republic.
Though the idea was inevitably levitating in the mists of the great music minds of the city for a long time, the final nudge came one day when the band leader realised that he had to wrench himself free from the soul destroying everydayness of life in a suburban. He bought some junk git box and then convinced some other desperate fellows to become hipsters of the day and start this whole baloney.
