Calgary's Decidedly Jazz Danceworks is no secret to dance-loving Calgarians, but this week, the critically-acclaimed contemporary dancers are being showcased at one of the United States most prestigious dance festivals.

The company were invited to perform at the Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Becket, Massachusetts. It's the 91season for Jacob's Pillow, making it America's longest-running dance festival. It's been described as a"hub and mecca" of dancing by, so it was quite a coup for a Calgary dance company to cop an invite to perform there.

East coast dance lovers also got to experience the value-add that DJD tries to bring to every performance – namely a soundtrack performed by a live band, an increasing rarity in a digital landscape where it's cheaper to roll tape than pay musicians, much to Cooper's dismay.
