Swing into the Spooky Season
Step into a hauntingly elegant evening of live swing music, spirited dancing, and vintage Halloween glamour at Dancing Under the Chandeliers: Spooky Swing Night. Join us in the historic Promenade Ballroom for a night of big band favorites, festive costumes, and unforgettable memories beneath the chandeliers.
For one night only, the historic Promenade Ballroom transforms into an enchanting Halloween ballroom where crystal chandeliers, spooky décor, and the electrifying sounds of a live 17-piece big band create one of the most unique Halloween events in Downtown St. Paul.
We've added more live performances for your viewing and listening pleasure...
Westwind Swing Band is a traditional 17 piece big band with lead vocalist Robyn Chargo. Our songbook includes tunes by iconic band leaders such as Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Duke Ellington, Artie Shaw and more. Our mission is to preserve and perform classic Swing Era and similarly styled music, as recorded by the original artists.
We are available for your listening and dancing pleasure! We perform at a variety of venues from wineries, swing dances, weddings and other private events to city parks and senior centers. You can hear us play regularly at the Wabasha Street Caves Swing Dancing Night from 7 - 10 PM on the first Thursday of every month.
Typical venues that work well for us are ballrooms, banquet and concert halls, city park band shells, community centers, party rooms, wineries, breweries, retirement communities, and senior residences.
We are becoming a Twin Cities wedding band of note with several recent bookings and we are already booking into next year! Call now to check availability and reserve your date!
