The Classic House Live Band

Danny Polaris and his trio (keys, guitar, drums) "The BAND," perform live versions of classic 90s/00s House and Dance tracks.

Some are slowed down into bluesy ballads, others are given a Bossa Nova or Cuban twist and some are kept at a Classic House speed for dancing!

 

Touch Me by Rui Da Silva, live at Das Gift

A mash-up of Nothing Going On But The Rent (Gwen Guthrie) with Last Night A DJ Saved My Life (1991 Remix)

Full band rehearsal of "Touch Me" at Noisy Rooms, Berlin.
