Blue Heaven Swing Dance Band
BLUE HEAVEN is Asheville, NC's newest swing band. Fronted by singer April Zace who delivers her solid rhythm and smoky alto vocals to the majority of the band's setlist, they are a dancer's band and provide a great ride for the swing dance enthusiast as well as a good show for the listening audience. Their repertoire is a delicious offering of the world's finest songs and tunes delivered with 'swing' in mind. April is backed up by long time guitarist Gary Mehalick, who has been performing for over 30 years in the style of Folk, Swing and Celtic music and has toured extensively throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. Filling out the band are Lew Gelfond on awesome swingin' fiddle, Skip Metheny on drums and Laurie Fisher on upright bass and vocal harmony. Lew, Skip and Laurie are longtime contradance musicians who for many years have been providing dancer’s around the country with memorable evenings.
