Naomi Uyama & Skye Humphries, ILHC 2014
This month’s episode of The Track features a conversation with Naomi Uyama, a dancer, singer, DJ, instructor and competitor you’ve already heard mentioned several times on previous episodes.
Since the 2015 edition of ILHC is coming up in just a couple of short weeks (featuring live music from Naomi & Her Handsome Devils), check out this clip of her dancing at last year’s ILHC to Artie Shaw’s “The Grabtown Grapple” (Amazon, iTunes) with Episode 3 guest Skye Humphries.
Tune
in to Episode 5 next week to hear us discuss a little controversy around Lindy Hop instructor salaries, how just the first few notes of both Count Basie’s “Jumpin’ at the Woodside” (Amazon, iTunes) and Usher’s “Yeah!” (Amazon, iTunes) stir your blood on a dance floor, and the current trend of dancers wanting to become musicians, from her unique perspective.
