Gramophoniacs (Friday & Saturday)
It's hard to imagine the Rug Cutter Days without them. So we invited them for the 4th time to play their hot music. Gramophoniacs will be playing at both parties on friday and saturday. We are super excited having the opportunity to enjoy their awesome swinging tones again. If you weren't a dancer before, they will make you one - If you are a dancer, you will not leave the dancefloor until they leave the stage!

Swing Kong Dance Orchestra (Saturday)
Swing Kong Dance Orchestra is a newly established 1930s style big band based in Brno, Czech Republic, which aims to play 1930s style swing music with authentic sound, steady dancing rhythm and stirring arrangements that will excite both traditional jazz lovers (that they are) as well as Lindy hoppers and other swing dancers (that they are, too). Amongst their greatest influencers are the orchestras of Jimmie Lunceford, Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Chick Webb, Cab Calloway, Gene Krupa, Lionel Hampton, Harry James, and many more, from the 1930s and early 1940s - the Lindy Hop era. Last but not least, don't you think they look great in their custom tailored suits on the stage? You simply must see them live!
Mr. Kong & his Swinging Monkeys (Friday)
Four members of Swing Kong Dance Orchestra perform as a combo named Mr. Kong And His Swinging Monkeys with different repertoire, but again in 30s swing style.
