The easiest way for anyone to find out about your gig is if you create a Facebook event for it. That way it stays up until the date of the show and provides a link so fans can get details. If you make a single post or a graphic announcing it on your own page then I (and some of your fans) will probably miss it.

Studio 88 Swing – Evolution Swing
Blues Dancing : Summer Classes
Hey everybody!
If you’d like to discover blues as a dance (because blues dancing is as old as the music genre itself), come take our summer classes at the Studio 88 Swing!
Sessions are comprised of 3 classes plus 1 assisted practice, over 4 weeks:
Struttin Blues – June 8th-29th : dance style from the 50s born in Memphis, traditionally danced on Delta blues of medium to fast tempo (think John Lee Hooker)
Piedmont Blues – July 6th-27th : Popular dance style from the early 1920s to 1970s, it comes from the Piedmont plateau, a large region from the US that extend from the East Coast to the Appalaches mountains. Danced on a variety of blues styles, from early acoustic delta blues to Chicago blues.
Texas Shuffle – August : This style was born in Texas, but is danced on a whole variety of Blues music genres, as long as you can hear a clear shuffle rhythm.
Register quickly! We only have limited places!
