Stace Rehberg
is one of this area's first swing dance enthusiasts and was part
of our Lindy Hop scene's inception. He has been DJing consistently
for almost six years and he's responsible for shaping much of the
musical character of our scene. He's been traveling extensively
and his gigs include C-REX, Swing Out New Hampshire and Pickton
Canada to name a few. Stace's musical taste includes all forms of
American roots music but he gravitates toward Blues and Jump Blues.
