How dare you!
SPEAKEASY ELECTRO SWING SEATTLE is the one and only Seattle dance party where vintage swing meets modern beats. Welcome to the retro-future. As our economy revisits the depression era, it is time for our culture to revel in the glory of those days.
It is time to get snazzed up, and get down to the sounds of Electro Swing that have been taking over the UK and the rest of Europe in the last few years. We are bringing you the first monthly event to focus on these sounds of now on this continent where the music began. As we scour the crates of dusty old record stores and remake these songs into club tunes of today, updating the swing sounds with electro, hip hop, house, bass, and dub. The sounds have been spreading through the Electro Swing compilations on Wagram music out of France, and the White Mink/Black Cotton albums from the UK in the past few years. With electro swing coming to every major festival in the EU this summer, we know it will only take a moment for folks on this side of the sea to find out why we are all working up a sweat about the sound. With packed monthlies set up by our friends in London, Berlin, Torino, Paris, Antwerp and beyond, we will be bringing you both the sounds of tradition, and the sound of the future.
Operating as usual
How dare you!

Hey all, we are sorry to say that Nightjar is stopping it's musical events starting 5/3, included Speakeasy at Nightjar, our weekly electro swing night.
We are saddened by this news but we will continue to work to bring electro swing to Seattle, so please keep in touch and keep an eye out for new events.
Big thanks to everyone for their support and especially to Nightjar for the opportunity.
We will be back (in one form or another) soon!
Speakeasy at Nightjar is moving to Saturdays and we're opening the doors earlier (for more dancing time!)
9pm every Saturday!
It's Friday night which means Electro Swing at Nightjar!
It's Friday! Which means tonight from 10pm-2am it's Speakeasy at Nightjar!
Tomorrow night we swing again at NightJar! No dance lesson this week unfortunately but that just means you'll have to invent a couple steps of your own!
