Bongo Fury : Burlesque Beauties Striptease to Afro Samba Jazz










Tuesday night, the incomparable Walter Davis leads his afro/samba jazz group through 3 sets of music and burlesque dancing. Pictured here are club fave's Annika (dark hair)and Dakota (lighter hair) shaking their groove things in ways that seem virtually impossible. Sexy doesn't even begin to describe the Bongo Fury night here at Harvelle's. Come early, get a good seat and a cocktail and settle in for a Tuesday night that will be the highlight of your week. I am always there. I never miss it. Highly recommended!!!

Bongo Fury Tuesday : The Rules




The first rule of Bongo Fury? 
Do not talk about Bongo Fury. 

Tuesday nights at Harvelle's is the reason I started going there in the first place. A therapy of sorts of it's own, it's many a man and woman's burlesque fantasy come to life. It's a Tuesday wake-up call, a chance to fall in love, or more casually, have a drink with friends.

The inspirational retreat, led by the incomparable Walter Davis, features the exotic beauty of burlesque-style dancers, latin afro-samba jazz, and the intoxicating aroma of cocktails. 
A treat for all the senses. 

DJ Daylite spins classic acid jazz, soul & funk and hip-hop into the night for your dancing pleasure.

The second rule of Bongo Fury?
Shhhhhhhhhhhh...

Furious Bongos & Gorgeous Dancers













Bongo Fury - every Tuesday night - is the latin/afro-samba soundtrack behind the half-naked burlesque dancers gyrating for your entertainment. The incomparable Walter Davis and his saxaphone lead the swinging evening into the night, where drinking and dancing are welcome and encouraged. 

DJ Daylite spins the wax in-between sets by the 4-piece combo in a flurried blend of kick-started Maceo Parker and soulful Blue Note cool. 
Come see for yourself.
