Music Video “I Wish” by Matt Palmer features PMT Dancers

Posted on August 17, 2010 by

I enjoyed this music video "I Wish" by R&B artist Matt Palmer.  It features several dancers I know from PMT Dance Studios: Pavan Thimmaiah (choreographer), Matt Lopez, Alan Watson, and Antonio Boss. Great dancing and cool choreo that nicely accentuates the music and the emotion. The song is pretty damn catchy, and Matt Palmer has…

Badass Video Monday: “Eye of the Tiger” Performed on iPads by B-boys

Posted on August 16, 2010 by

This music video by alternative artist Scott Harris has everything I love: an homage to cheesy 80s music, all the music was produced on virtual instruments on the iPad, and it's performed by two fresh b-boys. I don't know about you, but this gets me hyped on a Monday morning. The two b-boys are Kid…

Transmedia / transatlantic hip-hop music video integrates Second Life, Twitter, Skype & YouTube

Posted on July 9, 2010 by

Here's a creative and fun music video by Philly-based hip-hop artist Legrand that is exemplary for a number of reasons. First off, fun song! Secondly, created as a collaboration between Legrand and a group of 20 students at the Tokyo campus of Temple University, it's an interesting example of what can be accomplished using fairly…

West Coast Swing & Lindy Hop in LeAnn Rimes “Swingin” Music Video

Posted on June 22, 2010 by

I gotta say that I enjoyed this music video "Swingin" by country music singer LeAnn Rimes.  The "dance contest" set-up was very cute, and the mix of west coast swing, east coast and lindy hop dancing was cool to see.  I'm sure for most viewers, it's all just "swing."  Only dance nerds like me are…

Colin Huggins’ guerilla music video “Until It’s You” (video)

Posted on January 27, 2010 by

I love this new guerrilla-style, one take music video by Colin Huggins for his new single "Until It's You." Colin is not only a gifted independent musician, he also demonstrates his considerable popping, lindy hop, and moving sidewalk dancing abilities! I love how the dancing just gets wackier and more elaborate as the video goes…

Lindy hoppers in Sean Kingston music video “Fire Burning”

Posted on June 16, 2009 by

Toni Duguid sent out news to the swing community that there are four lindy hoppers in the new Sean Kingston music video "Fire Burning." You can see them exit a convertible at the beginning, and perform some swing aerials at the 2:20 and 3:40 marks. Toni identifies the girlies as twin sisters Christina and Jessica…

Katy Perry video features LA lindy hoppers

Posted on December 25, 2008 by

I don't know a thing about singer Katy Perry. But her recent video for her song "Thinking of You" features a number of LA-based lindy hoppers, including Minn Vo, Shesha Marvin, Nick Williams, and several others. Gotta love Katy's period costumes and the general vintage look of the video. And that's a real jazz band…
