It's only Jonathan Blimmin' Stout as my guest this month! (Not his real middle name)A Lindy Hopper since 1996, he grew up in the Southern California swing revival, learning from original-era Lindy and  Balboa dancers. He started playing swing music in 1999, and in 2002 started a band with Hilary Alexander, the Campus Five,  with the sole and express purpose of playing dance music for Lindy Hop and Balboa dancers. He's released 4 albums that are now pretty much standard issue for swing dance DJs and instructors around the globe. At the request of promoters for different flavours, he's started SIX more bands: the JSO, the Grand Slam Sextet, etc. They play the top swing dance events in the US and around the Globe: Lindy Focus, Camp Hollywood, ILHC, Lindy Shock, California Balboa Classic, and all the others.You can find the listen along Spotify playlist HEREYou can find the listen along YouTube playlist HEREYou can find the special Holidays playlist on Spotify HERE!The music license is sponsored by voicesculptor.comThe artwork is by @sazmy_designYou can find DIJ on instagram HEREJonathon Stout is the magic fingered man behind the original music for our theme song.
