Roberta Donnay & the Prohibition Mob Band at The Woodchopper’s Ball

Roberta Donnay & the Prohibition Mob Band

“[Roberta Donnay’s] engagement with the lyrics, her supple sense of time and her soulful, little-girl timbre remind you of Billie Holiday.” -Mike Zwerin, International Herald Tribune. Roberta Donnay & the Prohibition Mob Band present a modern take of the hot swingin’ jazz and sultry blues of the 1920s and ’30s that will make you want to dance all night!

WOODCHOPPER’S BALL:

The Woodchopper’s Ball, San Francisco’s swing hot spot, is a weekly Tuesday night swing dance event held at the historic Verdi Club in San Francisco’s Mission district. Named after the classic 1939 swing tune by the Woody Herman Orchestra (and their biggest hit!), it features monthly classes, a full bar (21+ only), and a dance party with a drop-in lesson and the largest variety of live swing dance music in town!
