DESCRIPTION:
The name Ruby Slippers evokes a simpler time. If you close your eyes, your wish might come true. The music of the day was swing, and Benny Goodman was the King of Swing. It was the heyday of great American composers - George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Cole Porter.

Ruby Slippers, a 5 piece acoustic band, will have you up and dancing in no time. Our favorite past-time is performing vintage swing era music suitable for a variety of dance styles: Swing, Latin, Fox Trot, Lindy Hop, Jitterbug, One Step, Slow Dance, Blues and Waltz. We have worked extensively with Seattle dance teachers to fine tune our repertoire to the perfect variety mix. If it's background mood music or dinner music you want, our 120 tune set list has just what you'll need for relaxing. Then when you're ready to blow off some steam, so are we!

If you step out with Ruby Slippers, we promise to be the LIFE of your party!
