The supersonic funk tonic known as Swift Tech will begin with a customary stop through the nation's capital. This aint your ordinary Wednesday night, however. The Swift crew will be reuniting with our Baltimore funk partners in crime, Shook, for what may literally blow the roof off The Wonderland Ballroom. Usual beer garden activities and late night dancin guaranteed. It's going down on Wednesday, June 13th.
