Join us for a “soul dance party” with a Blues & Swing dance lesson to get you started. Soul Crackers’ music encompasses Memphis & Motown soul and features timeless songs by artists like Jr. Walker, Otis Redding, Sam & Dave, Gladys Knight, Martha & The Vandellas, and Wilson Pickett. Lead vocalist Tommy Lepson’s powerful voice conveys all the joy and passion that makes this music come alive. He will be joined on stage by two remarkable vocalists, the "Too Much Sisters” —  Anita King and Caz Gardiner —  to perform those rich Motown vocals. The 9-piece band also includes a kickin' horn section that packs dance floors from the first note played. The rest of the band all have years of expertise, rockin’ the house as one of the best acts in town.

Don’t want to bring your dancin’ shoes? Just come to listen to the music and have a drink. A special area of the ballroom will be set up for listening. Beer and wine are available at the on-site cafe, Praline at Glen Echo Park. A blues dance lesson is included with the ticket price.
