Dance Band is a musical group based in Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Minnesota. Dance Band was voted City Pages' Best Live Artist of 2007.〔http://www.citypages.com/bestof/2007/award/best-live-artist-70155/〕 They have been called "Minnesota's foremost incitement to party",〔http://www.citypages.com/2008-06-04/calendar/dance-band/〕 and praised for their ability to "() all the cool, nonchalant hipsters out onto the dance floor for serious booty shaking and the occasional synchronized zombie impersonation."〔http://www.citypages.com/2008-11-19/calendar/dance-band/〕 Dance Band's musical style centers on live performance. One band member stated in an interview with the City Pages: "()e're able to respond to people without all the usual tests: recording an album, marketing it, getting really far down the road before you ever see how people come back at you with it. We see how our music works in real life. It's a live show. You want what people want because you want that energy to go back and forth. Because it's dance music, people are participating. You don't have people walking away with heady questions about what happened. They're like, 'That was fun! I'm gonna bring my friends next time.'"〔http://www.citypages.com/2007-09-19/music/temerity-tomatoes-from-outer-space/〕 == Notable Performances and Awards== *Opened for the Venezuelan dance band Los Amigos Invisibles, 2006.〔http://www.varsitytheater.org/webcalendar/month.php?date=20060701〕 *Performed in the Voltage Fashion Show, 2007.〔http://www.howwastheshow.com/index.cfm/action/reviews.view/reviewKey/565〕 *Opened for mashup D.J.
