Joel Bird’s love of jazz lead him on a path towards 1930-50’s culture. Joel Bird dresses in a vintage style, partly because of his interest in the era, partly because it fits with his sustainable ethos, he also dances a mixture of vintage styles often referred to as swing dancing, which includes Lindy Hop, Balboa, Shag and Blues, and he runs his own vintage festival ‘The Margate Swing Festival’.
