Possessing a driving, expressive vocal style influenced by the likes of Janis Martin, Patsy Cline, and Dorothy Shay, the Missouri-born singer-songwriter, Martí Brom has crafted a compelling body of work that has earned her a loyal following at home and overseas. Whether performing rockabilly, western swing, or rhythm and blues, her vocal style is noted among roots music fans for its authenticity, taste, and heart. Native Washingtonian JP McDermott, named Spanish Ballroom at Glen Echo Park, 7300 MacArthur Boulevard, Glen Echo, Maryland| DIRECTIONS > In cooperation with the Glen Echo Park Partnership for Arts and Culture, Inc., the National Park Service and Montgomery County, MD Back to TOP ^ The legendary GLENN MILLER ORCHESTRA Just saying the phrase "Glenn Miller Orchestra" immediately conjurs up images of the Big Band Era. Since the time he formed his own orchestra in 1937 until his untimely disappearance over the Atlantic Ocean in 1944, the Glenn Miller Orchestra provided the music that was the backbone of the Lindy Hop era. Classic songs like Tuxedo Junction, Chattanooga Choo-Choo, Sunrise Serenade, Pennsyania 6-5000, In the Mood, and more, will never go out of style. Join us at the Annapolis Recreation Center, which hosted the USO during World War II, for a special summer dance you'll never forget. Vintage dress encouraged! Annapolis Recreation Center, 9 Saint Mary's Street, Annapolis, Maryland| DIRECTIONS > Back to TOP^ Fourth Friday DJ Balboa dance with Aba, Kate and Bobby Here's a chance for Balboa/Bal-Swing enthusiasts to dance to great DJ music on one of the best dance floors in town. Enjoy a casual friendly atmosphere where you can Bal 'til your heart's content (but no one will mind if you throw in a little Lindy, either!). Back to TOP ^ Every Friday night Back to TOP ^ Tom and Debra at the Spanish Ballroom at Glen Echo Park in 2009 Tom and Debra are delighted to be hosting these special dances at the beautiful and historic Spanish Ballroom.

Rockabilly Rave-Up! MARTI BROM, JP McDERMOTT, AND WESTERN BOP 
Country Vocalist of the Year by the Washington Area Music Association, has sung every kind of music you can think of but is happiest belting out a Ray Price heartbreaker or tearing into a Warren Smith rockabilly rave-up. These two titans of rockabilly swing will be joined onstage by Western Bop for a fantastic night of American roots dance music, played the way it's supposed to be played--straight ahead, a little bit blue, and a ton of fun.
