Halsey & the Hi-Hats at the Woodchopper’s Ball
May 16, 2023 @ 9:00 pm - 11:30 pm
Halsey & the Hi-Hats
Take a little bit of Betty Hutton, a dash of Doris Day, and a jigger of Judy Garland, mix ‘em up, and you get Halsey & the Hi-Hats. Their shows are vintage, campy, fun, and always very danceable. They play songs from the roaring 20s to the swinging 60s: jazz standards and the Great American Songbook, but also forgotten gems and comedy songs from the golden age of swing music.
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!
