Crystal House (Improv) - ONE / ONE: Live from The Fillmore Auditorium - Denver, CO

Intro]
(Ah yeah!)
Hey baby! (Hey what?)
You ready? (For what?)
Let’s go swingin’ till the morning light!
C’mon now!

[Verse 1]
Well the band’s on fire and the floor’s alive,
Got my shoes shined up, feelin’ that vibe!
You caught my eye from across the crowd,
Let’s twist it up, let’s make it loud!
Come on sugar, don’t stand still,
The rhythm’s jumpin’, you know the thrill!
Every move, every groove’s the thing—
So hey baby, let’s go swing!

[Verse 1 Partner B]
Mmm honey, you talk so sweet,
You got that style that moves your feet!
You spin me ‘round, I lose my mind,
Ain’t felt this good in such a long time!
You grab my waist, I grab your hand,
Let’s show ‘em how we twist and stand!
The night is young, let the jukebox ring—
Hey baby, let’s go swing!

[Chorus]
Hey baby, let’s go swing!
Twist that body, do your thing!
Round and round, don’t you stop,
Move those hips and let it drop!
Hey baby, the groove’s the king—
Clap your hands, let the rhythm sing!
Come on now, let your heart take wing—
Hey baby, let’s go swing!

[Verse 2 Partner A]
I see you movin’, you got that fire,
Your steps are smooth, you lift me higher!
You dip and slide, you twist so neat,
I can feel that heat from your dancing feet!
Let’s spin again, don’t lose the beat,
Our hearts are pounding, oh so sweet!
The crowd’s all clappin’, the trumpets sting—
Oh, hey baby, let’s go swing!

[Verse 2 Partner B]
Oh darling, you sure can move,
You’ve got that old-school Chubby groove!
The sax is blowin’, the bass is tight,
This dance could last all through the night!
We’re twistin’, turnin’, shoutin’ loud,
We’re the heartbeat of this crowd!
Let’s shake it, baby, do your thing—
Hey baby, let’s go swing!

[Bridge]
Partner A: Left foot, right foot, spin around!
Partner B: Twist that body, get down, get down!
Partner A: Shake those hips, now don’t be shy!
Partner B: Come on baby, let’s touch the sky!
Both: Everybody’s watchin’, the band’s on fire—
We’re swingin’ high, we’re climbin’ higher!

[Chorus]
Hey baby, let’s go swing! (Yeah!)
Twist that body, do your thing! (Woo!)
Round and round, don’t you stop!
Move those hips and let it drop!
Hey baby, the groove’s the king—
Clap your hands, let the rhythm sing!
Come on now, let your heart take wing—
Hey baby, let’s go swing!

[Break]
Partner A: Spin me, sugar!
Partner B: Don’t you let go!
Partner A: I’m flyin’!
Partner B: I told you so!

[Final Chorus]
Hey baby, let’s go swing!
Twist that body, do your thing!
Round and round, don’t you stop!
Move those hips and let it drop!
Hey baby, the groove’s the king—
Clap your hands, let the rhythm sing!
One more time, let the rafters ring—
Hey baby, let’s go swing!

[Outro]
Partner A: Oh yeah, baby, we’re swingin’ tonight!
Partner B: Don’t stop now, keep it tight!
Partner A: The moon’s up high, our hearts are too—
Both: Hey baby… I’m swingin’ with you!

Hey Baby, Let’s Go Swing

Let’s take this thing it higher. 

Anyone familiar with the Pimps of Joytime live experience knows the feeling—it’s that moment when a deep bluesy groove morphs into a full-on EDM explosion, or the sensation when the wide-eyed audience collectively elevates in sync with the band’s irresistible energy.

On Jukestone Paradise, the Pimps of Joytime raise the bar with swagger to spare, crafting ten cohesive songs that ring out like the soundtrack for a ride through the diverse Brooklyn neighborhood where their sound materialized.  Pulling from lead guitarist and singer Brian J’s deep discography of influences, the creation of Jukestone Paradise began a decade ago, when he penned anthems like “Sky” and “Freedom Dancer,” all the way up to the album’s studio recording sessions.

You might accurately call the Pimps of Joytime a ‘post-genre’ band; they’re a group whose sound—even within a single song—mirrors the diversity of our era’s musical tastes. “It’s a sonic tapestry that’s representative of this time and place that we live in,” says Brian J. 

That’s where the Pimps excel, by mashing up ‘70s funk tones with modern dance beats, mixed with original samples creating their mosaic sound. For listeners weary of today’s DJ culture but eager to dance with abandon, the Pimps of Joytime are the antidote. 

“At our core, the Pimps of Joytime are not just dance music,” says Brian J of the band’s three-part harmony attack. “My first vocal mentor was a doo-wop singer, so I have a long-time love affair with vocal harmonies.”

With the release of Jukestone Paradise, the band makes official their solid touring lineup, featuring dual female vocalists and percussionists Mayteana Morales and Cole WilliamsX. And they’re hitting the road hard, continuing a constant touring schedule that’s already left prominent sets at festivals like Voodoo, Outside Lands, Bonnaroo and High Sierra in their wake.

Behind the frontlines are bassist/keyboardist David Bailis and drummer John Staten, forming the rhythmic backbone of the Pimps’ audible collage. And for Jukestone Paradise, they called in a few friends to lend their talents, including Ivan Neville, who lends New Orleans flavor to “Sky,” and Rubblebucket’s Alex Toth, who co-wrote the quirky and infectious “Dance Cardia.” 

Just as Brooklyn has changed since the Pimps started, so has the band’s sound. But as Williamsburg gentrifies, the Pimps of Joytime’s diverse evolution keeps the neighborhood’s spirit alive. That spirit goes into the Pimps’ pot, over a soulful roux of rhythm and groove.
