About Us
Gregory Street Vagabonds are a vintage jazz & swing band based in Rochester, New York. The band is a mix of Lindy Hop dancers and musicians who’ve come together to take part in this jubilant and energetic musical style. We especially love music from the 1930’s and 1940’s, love to play for dancing, and build our sets for maximum Lindy Hop-ability.
We can be seen and heard performing around Rochester at local music venues such as Iron Smoke Distillery, the Little Theatre Cafe, and Abilene, or at dances for Groove Juice Swing, the RIT and University of Rochester Swing Dance clubs, as well as at the North Vintage Village Festival of the Arts and the Rochester Fringe Festival.
