A Big, Beautiful Band Will Play Trump and Melania's Inaugural First Dance

The swingin’ Tim Rushlow seems like a fitting choice—after all, his website’s tagline is “Get Your Retro On.”

With just days to go before Donald Trump’s softly sensual inaugural celebration, we’ve finally learned who will be playing when the newly sworn-in president and his First Lady—Melania, not the other one—gently sway through their ceremonial first dance at the Freedom Ball. It’s not exactly Beyoncé.

Instead, Donald and Melania will enjoy the smooth sounds of Tim Rushlow, a country singer turned jazz crooner, and his accompanying Big Band. The act seems like an appropriate get for the businessman who wants to “make America great again”; their homepage, which features autoplaying audio of Rushlow singing Tony Bennett’s “With Plenty of Money and You,” implores visitors to “get {their} retro on.”

Hot at the Fontainebleau Hotel on the Beach - circa 1964!

Perhaps instead of referring to Melania Trump as First Lady, her title should be Third Lady?
