Spinning in the Backyard

Making plans for your next few weekends? Be sure to include the Wild Detectives because, on Saturday August 13th, DJ Tony Schwa will be joining us for a DJ session. Come out and time travel with Schwa as you enjoy his erudite picks of Funk, Soul, Disco and Boogie.

Tony Schwa is a DJ who originated in small Allentown, Pennsylvania and then moved to Dallas. His father owned a record shop which influenced Schwa’s musical career later in life. He began to DJ around 2005 and had been playing in different venues throughout Dallas over the years. He is perhaps most well-known for his event The Cool Out at The Crown and Harp, which was where his career started. Schwa has been praised in the Dallas Observer for his, “tropical sounds” and is mentioned in D Magazine in that “If you build it, they will come. Cool out founder, Tony Schwa is proof”.
