Indie Rock Lindy Hop: Kalispell

http://indierocklindyhop.blogspot.com/2012/05/kalispell.html

Indie Rock Lindy Hop. Friday, May 25, 2012. Do you remember, folks, when I told you briefly. About my buddy Shane's band Kalispell. Well, he finally released his full-length album Westbound. A little over a week ago. I hitched a ride to Eau Claire so that I could be there for the CD release show and am extremely glad I did. We Are the Willows. And The Daredevil Christopher Wright. And if you're not sold yet, you can download my second favorite track, Lucky a Hundred Times, for free. In town near you!

Indie Rock Lindy Hop: Dance Whirlwind

http://indierocklindyhop.blogspot.com/2013/03/dance-whirlwind.html

Indie Rock Lindy Hop. Friday, March 8, 2013. The dance world has been kind to me this year. For some reason, I made finals in the Amateur Jack and Jill at Lindy Focus. Not only did I make finals, but by the grace of God, I placed 2nd (with an amazing partner, James Pack)! That felt like a good start to the new year. Taken by the great Bobby Bonsey). But my year has gotten even better. And it's only March! Last weekend, I attended Heartland Swing Festival. 2nd in Solo Jazz. Music and lindy hop enthusiast ...

Indie Rock Lindy Hop: Playful Dancing

http://indierocklindyhop.blogspot.com/2014/04/playful-dancing.html

Indie Rock Lindy Hop. Monday, April 28, 2014. I just ran across this video tonight and it was a delight to watch. I love how playful these two both are. And once Ann decided to "march" around, she stuck with it and worked it. April 28, 2014 at 9:05 PM. I can see why you liked it. Im not a huge fan of slower dancing, but this was delightful and bits of it reminded me of some Carolina Shag and the movie SHAG (one of my guilty pleasures). Their playfulness was fantastic and she was adorable!

Indie Rock Lindy Hop: December 2013

http://indierocklindyhop.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html

Indie Rock Lindy Hop. Friday, December 20, 2013. I haven't written on the blog in ages! What brings me back is wanting desperately to help a friend, Shane Leonard of Kalispell. Reach his Kickstarter goal. To help record his second album. This is the same Kalispell that I wrote about. As of right now, there is only only 62 hours (2 1/2 days) left to raise the remaining $6,690. I think that that goal can be achieved with a little help from my blogging friends! Check out his Kickstarter link.

Indie Rock Lindy Hop. Thursday, April 17, 2014. New Tunes: J.E. Sunde and Big Lake. I love the Twin Cities.

Indie Rock Lindy Hop: September 2011

http://indierocklindyhop.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html

Indie Rock Lindy Hop. Wednesday, September 21, 2011. My Reasons for Blogging. When I tell people that I have a blog about Lindy Hop and "Indie" music, one of the more common responses from friends and acquaintances is a groan of, "Oh no, not you too.". And then there are the expectations that those people and the other bloggers have: if you are going to have yet another blog on dancing or music, you better be damn good at articulating what you mean and know what you're talking about. There were too many ...

Indie Rock Lindy Hop: March 2012

http://indierocklindyhop.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html

Indie Rock Lindy Hop. Friday, March 16, 2012. Folks, Sam Amidon. Has done it again! He has made a master piece of an album that I'm sure too many people will never know about (though I hope I'm wrong). Back in 2008, Amidon released the album " All is Well. This album has been standard in my collection, with Amidon's almost mumbly voice, soft strings, and overall authentic folk sound. It is a beautifully constructed album. This year, Sam Amidon gives to us another great album " I See the Sign. A site wher...
