About

Music in the 1920s was pushing new boundaries. As radios made their way into people’s homes, new sounds, from different parts of the country could be heard. The influence can be seen in the rapid development of movies, radio programs, records sold, and even new dance steps.  The era of idealism and excess is seen in the club culture and desire for something new. Join us as we put lipstick on The Blind Swine for our closing night bash.  Our old Macomb Motor garage will be the bee’s knees!
