Roberta Donnay and her Prohibition Mob Band at The Woodchopper’s Ball!
[Roberta Donnay’s] engagement with the lyrics, her supple sense of time and her soulful, little-girl timbre remind you of Billie Holiday.
– Mike Zwerin, International Herald Tribune
Roberta Donnay and her Prohibition Mob Band present a modern take of the hot swingin’ jazz and sultry blues of the 1920’s and 1930’s that will make you want to dance all night!
Named after the classic 1939 swing tune by the Woody Herman Orchestra (and their biggest hit!), is a weekly Tuesday swing dance event held at the beautiful historic Verdi Club in San Francisco.
