PORT TOWNSEND — Rock, Motown, soul and rhythm and blues will fill the Port Townsend Elks Lodge, 555 Otto St., as the Discovery Dance group hosts another evening of frolic this Friday.
The band this time out is Kevin Mason and the Yacht Club, and the dance, open to singles, couples, beginners and experts, will get moving at 7 p.m.
That’s when Janice Eklund will teach a double-time swing lesson, during which experienced dancers are encouraged to come and help those just starting out.
As with each Discovery Dance event held on the third Friday of the month, admission is $10, including the lesson and the live music from 8 p.m. until 10:30 p.m.
People of all ages are welcome at these dances, which are smoke-free and fragrance-free.
The Yacht Club, a well-known band of players in Port Townsend, includes Katie Hardiman, Doug Noltemeier, Josh Dylan Peters, George Radebaugh and Todd Fisher alongside Kevin Mason. Peters and Fisher are away this week, though, so stand-up bass player Ted Enderle and drummer Tom Svornich will play Friday night’s dance.
