Alec & Friends, featuring his Swing band: GOT THAT SWING! 

This year, Bands & Bellies founder and producer Alec Marken will play you a variety of music, including original Folk rock from his band Deep Stirrings, some collaborations with friends, and some tunes with members of his new Swing band, GOT THAT SWING!
GOT THAT SWING! is a Swing band that can bring much more to events than live Swing music!  Front man/band leader Alec Marken likes to put on a full show!  He is joined onstage at BnB13 by bandmates Marcus Hackley, Dani Clark, Brandon Hill, and Tommy O'Callaghan.

                    ROMARA

Romara blends classic middle-eastern rhythms with modern electric beats and pop sensibilities to produce world-fusion music that is both rich with cultural flavors and catchy. Craig Collins was drumming in the Turkish-fusion band Saf Mavi when he met bassist and didgeridoo player Roy Lansdown. Lansdown had already been working with dancer and musician Tamara Djinnise on creating fresh and accessible rock-influenced songs that would appeal to tribal fusion belly dancers, and Craig added a traditional tabla

spice that breathes life into the digital stew.
