Swing Out New Hampshire

WELCOME!

08/09/2026

In 3 weeks I’ll be back at Swing Out New Hampshire to play for two nights—marking my 22nd year performing at this event! (If you include the virtual edition in 2020)

SONH is always going to have a special spot in my heart; one of my longest running gigs, the event where I met my wife, where I’ve made some of my longest friendships, and some truly great memories—like this jam circle from last year where Hannah Gill jumped off the stage to dance with Tyedric Hill ! I can’t wait to be back again.

Playing in this clip:
Hannah Gill : vocals (not singing here because she jumped into the jam and danced instead )
Emeline O'Rourke : guitar
Tal Ronen : bass
Jay Lepley: drums
Davide Sgarra : sax and clarinet
Charlie Caranicas : trumpet
Sam Chess : trombone

They're back! The life of every party, THE FLOORIDA BOYS! Dom, Kalz, + Khiem are bringing their signature energy and classes once more to Swing Out New Hampshire!

Dominic Howarth

Dominic loves to wiggle. The only thing he loves more than wiggling is wiggling with other people. He lives for exploring, is feverishly curious, and thinks playfulness is next to godliness. He's been dancing since his Mom put a Salt-n-Pepa record on when he was two years old, and the bug hasn't left him. A storyteller, a historian, and a clown at heart, he can't wait to shimmy with you!

Khiem Nguyen

Khiem is a community builder and Lindy Hop and Blues scene leader based out of Lakeland, FL. Drawing dancers from all around the state of Florida (and beyond), Khiem has helped grow, teach, and inspire dancers with his playfulness and focus laden in every lesson he teaches, every event he hosts, and every cypher he jumps into. While Lindy is his main dance style, Khiem has branched out into Freestyle, Salsa, Bachata, and Blues to grow as a dancer. This has led him on a mission to find the through line in dance and bring other dancers (hip-hop, Latin, etc) into the Swing community!

Kalz Daniel

Kalz has been dancing nearly a decade in sunny St. Petersburg, Florida. For him, Lindy Hop is all about creativity, authenticity, and bringing it back to what it was meant to be….a party dance. Kalz's goal is simple: get people laughing, moving, and having a good damn time on the floor.

Andrea Gordon’s journey started in the late 90s, watching her best friend dance, but started dancing herself in 2006. She found joy and freedom in jazz movement and performed well in several contests before leaving the scene in 2014 when she realized the values and priorities of the scene didn't align with her own.

She has returned to and for a community that values its history, its culture, and its people. Since coming home, she's been a touring cast member in the stage show
Sw!ngOut, a celebrated Master of Ceremonies, and a sought-after voice in the discussion of
inclusion and equity in jazz dance spaces. Andrea enjoys improving her art as a practitioner of African American vernacular jazz dances and actively works toward creating a community that values safety, love, and appreciation for all its members.

Nii Attoh-Okine is an avid Lindy Hop dancer, competitor, and DJ from Baltimore, Maryland. Over the past decade, Nii has traveled to dance scenes around the world, drawing inspiration from the diverse styles he’s encountered and sharing that perspective with his local community at Mobtown Ballroom. His classes emphasize the deep interdependence between partners and the music—focusing on how rhythm, connection, and shared creativity create a truly joyful dance.

The energy can not be contained.
The only question is which chicken is which Floridian?
