We’re back! — for our third annual Pride party!
Inspired by our deep love for the jazz clubs of New Orleans, especially the magic of Frenchmen Street, Swung OUT at the Clock-Out brings you the intimate, electric feel of a night out at a jazz club, with plenty of space to dance, sip, and celebrate. Expect incredible live music with a joyful queer twist.
The night features three sets of live swing from our queer-led band, Christian Pincock’s Baseless Accusation performing specially crafted arrangements of songs by legendary queer jazz artists like Billy Strayhorn, Gladys Bentley, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and more. We’re also thrilled to welcome the incomparable Seattle jazz icon
Jacqueline Tabor on vocals.
Kick things off with an intro to Lindy Hop lesson, then dive into a vibrant evening of dancing, plus dazzling Dance, Drag, and Burlesque performances, line dance moments, and more. The Clock-Out Lounge will be serving up delicious food and drinks all night, including Stevie’s Famous Pizza, plus a few surprises along the way!
Whether you’re hitting the dance floor, grabbing a slice, or just soaking in the atmosphere, come celebrate Pride with us!
2026 Swung OUT
at the Clock-Out!
Cristian Pincock’s
Baseless Accusation
featuring Jacqueline Tabor
Queer Swing Seattle is thrilled and deeply honored to continue our creative collaboration with bandleader Christian Pincock and singer Jacqueline Tabor this year.
Music is the heartbeat of swing dancing, and it means so much to be building something together again.
For us, this event has never been about simply “hiring a band.” It’s about cultivating community at every level. Christian and Adam (of Queer Swing Seattle) have worked closely to shape a music program that not only swings, but also shines a spotlight on the often-overlooked queer artists who helped define jazz and swing. We can’t wait to share these songs with you — and to highlight the stories behind the artists throughout the night.
And as if that weren’t enough, this musical journey is elevated even further by the incomparable chanteuse Jacqueline Tabor, whose stunning voice will light up the room.
PERFORMANCES
We’ll be featuring performances and interactive dance activities throughout the evening… Drag, Burlesque, and who knows what else! You’ll just have to come and find out!
A note from the organizers
Bradley and Adam (aka Ms. Free’da Follow) are delighted to host this event for the third time — and to return for a second year in collaboration with the beloved, queer-owned Clock-Out Lounge, a cornerstone of Seattle’s music scene.
We’re incredibly grateful for a community that has shown up with such enthusiasm and openness, saying “yes” to ideas that, when we first imagined them, didn’t quite exist yet. Creating this space has always been about building something we felt was needed — a joyful, affirming, and swing music and dance filled home within Seattle’s nightlife. It has been truly amazing to see it embraced.
This year’s event is produced by a small but passionate team, and we’re excited to keep growing, both as queer-powered event producers and as a vibrant community of dancers and jazz lovers.
Thank you for being part of it, and for supporting Queer Swing Seattle at Swung Out at the Clock-Out 2026.
-Adam & Bradley
