A great weekend for dance: Rory Partin and his All Star Big Band at Santa Monica’s Typhoon

A great weekend for dance: Rory Partin and his All Star Big Band at Santa Monica’s Typhoon by Patrick O’Heffernan Now that Daft Punk has abandoned Electronic Dance Music (and won a Grammy for the effort!)

Both were a blast. You saw Trombone Shorty for his appearance on the Grammys playing with Macklemore and Ryan Lewis and Madonna during the mass wedding. You may not know Rory Partin, although he has played some pretty big venues including presidential balls for both President Bush and President Clinton and appears in hip showcase clubs like Hotel Café with his wife, Alexa James, in his pop band, The Roamies. Needless to say, this is [Read More]
