DJs
Head DJ - Ann Sychertz
Ann began swing dancing in Waterloo, Canada (not far from Toronto) and now lives in the US. Since getting her first songs, she has DJed in her home scenes including the one she co-founded in Switzerland called Swingtime Lausanne. She has had the fortune of playing swing jazz including head and competition DJ for events around the world. Digging through old stuff and new (soft spot for the original stuff), small group to big band to Newport, North American and European, she aims to create an atmosphere worthy of creativity and playing around with the dance.
DJ - Sebree Turner
Sebree currently resides right here in Music City! She is thrilled to once again join the DJ team for Southern Balboa Classic. Sebree first dipped her toe into DJing via the usual swing DJ pipeline … her local collegiate club needed more volunteers and Sebree had a teeny, tiny music library blossoming so she gave it a go. From that point on it’s unclear which has grown faster: her love for the genre or her library! Sebree is always up for chatting about swing jazz; so feel free to ask her about that song she just played when you see her behind the DJ table.
