[Tango-L] North American tango orchestras/bands

[Trini y Sean (PATangoS)]

Somehow, I missed the original email to this thread.

In Pittsburgh, we are fortunate to now have 4 tango bands,
2 of which debuted this year.  Here are three of them in
order of tango experience.  

Tangueros de Ley 
www.tanguerosdeley.com

Step (who also do original tangos)
www.jeremysment.com

La Bicicleta Blanca 
http://www.myspace.com/bicicletablanca

The fourth, Caucion, is expected to make its professional
debut this summer.  By professional debut, I refer to
playing at milongas for dancing.

All have strong ties to the dance community (either as
dancers themselves or significant others who are excellent
dancers).
