The dance party is coming up, May 26. Doors open at 7 p.m., music 7:30 p.m. This will be a fantastic fun night sponsored by Halfmoon Bay Community Association. Monty Montego and the Rocksteady Crew will bring the tunes that could be described as pre-reggae music from Jamaica or even as Motown meets reggae. It’s definitely dance music.
