The Silver Ghosts at Floridita

The Silver Ghosts are a seven-piece swing ensemble performing numbers that evoke the hot, breathless and high spirited dance gigs of the 1920s, 30s and 40s. Starting as duet Mark (The Colonel) on the trumpet and Karl (Caps) learning the ukulele, the founder members had been inspired by the energy and style of several swing dance club nights around town where the DJs play nothin but original 78s on period equipment while patrons express their passion for swing jazz sometimes just through their period garb but mostly on the dancefloor with classicly energetic partner dances like the Lyndy Hop and Charlston.
