Swinging at Philly Joe’s: Jaan Krivel Swing Project

Swinging at Philly Joe’s brings together swing dancers, musicians and a swing loving audience! This evening is intended for everyone whose vinyl rack contains rarities or who has been looking for a new kind of excitement to their weekend, because Philly Joe’s hall will become a hot dance floor! We’ve also put some thought into those enjoying themselves from a distance, leaving comfortable sofas and booths in the hall where you can experience the lively evening.

Jaan Krivel is a musician who was captivated by swing music from a young age. This genre, with its lively songs and rich melodies, has been a constant companion throughout his life. His new band's repertoire mainly comprises swing standards and favorites that are widely recognized and perfect for singing and dancing along to! 

The evening will continue with Tallinn Swing Dance Society DJ’s.

Lindy Hop is a swing dance that originated in the heyday of the swing era, in the Harlem district of New York in the 1930s. Lindy Hop is a mixture of several dance styles of that era, such as jazz, tap and Charleston. The dance style, which quickly gained popularity, conquered all of America and soon spread all over the world. The new dance style got its name from the first non-stop flight from New York to Paris, which was performed by Charles Lindbergh, nicknamed Lucky Lindy.
