WHITE MINK
The sounds and style of the 1920's and 30's turned upside down and smuggled into the 21st century.

THIS MONTH we're tweaking the usual vintage/electro swing band format to bring you a little more cabaret around a vaguely seasonal theme:
★ ROMANY - Diva Of Magic
We are so proud and excited to bring back the star of last years WHITE CHRISTMAS shows; ROMANY was the first and only woman ever to be named “Stage magician of the year” by the Magic Circle. She has performed with or for Jonathon Ross, Penn and Teller, The Queen, Johnny Depp and Mick Jagger among many others.
“A cross between Bette Midler and Mary Poppins” (Time Out)
“Charming and very, very funny” (Judi Dench)
“A razzle-dazzle mix of glamour, high-skill magic and original comedy” (The Stage)
Just watch this:

If you saw her last year you'll know how brilliant she was. This year she'll also be our compere and will perform a mix of tricks, new and old.
★ THE SHIRT TAIL STOMPERS
For the first time at White Mink Brighton, we're proud to welcome one of London's very finest vintage swing bands. We've had the pleasure of working with these guys on many occasions over the years and they've always brilliant. We absolutely certain they're going to raise the roof off....
Here's what TIME OUT said: "Righteously retro, but youthful trad jazzers dive back to prohibition-era speakeasies for inspiration, playing clarinet/trumpet/guitar-led Dixieland hits from Waller, Ellington and Basie."

ABOUT:
We were named by Mixmg last year as the second best party in the UK. As the originators of a speakeasy and swing revival, we are proud to be "taking clubland by storm" (The Daily Telegraph). We founded London's Electro Swing Club which blew up into a world-wide phenomena and are responsible for the eponymous, album-charting White Mink : Black Cotton (Electro Swing vs Speakeasy Jazz) CD series. We also curate numerous amazing festival stages annually and continue to promote sell-out UK shows by bands like Parov Stelar, Caravan Palace and more.
We have a lot to live up to!
